The band will play a 10th anniversary show after Capaldi withdrew from the festival over his health.

The BBC has contacted festival organisers to confirm the news. The 1975 previously headlined Reading and Leeds in 2019 and 2021. On the latter occasion, they replaced Rage Against The Machine after vocalist Zack de la Rocha was advised to rest on medical grounds.

Wet Leg, Slowthai, Becky Hill, Central Cee, Holly Humberstone, Arlo Parks, Tion Wayne and You Me At Six are also on the line-up.Capaldi's last live performance took place on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury on 24 June. "The last few months have been full-on both mentally and physically," he wrote. "I haven't been home properly since Christmas and at the moment I am struggling to get to grips with it all."

The crowd rallied to his aid, helping him finish the set by singing the number one hit Someone You Loved.
