The festival has also announced an update on tickets - and as one day sells out. Here's everything you need to know ahead of this year's blockbuster event at Bramham Park. With little over a month to go, Leeds Festival organisers have revealed the first wave of set times ahead of this year's event at Bramham Park, taking place over the August Bank Holiday weekend. After some speculation over the past few months regarding who would headline the Hozier/Chappell Roan day, the Irish performer will close out the main stage, with Roan performing shortly before his set. Meanwhile, Friday's main stage action features a back-to-back-to-back series of hip-hop sets as Travis Scott headlines, followed by D-Block Europe shortly before and Trippie Redd preceding the pair of acts. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Chappell Roan will be among the headliners at this year's Leeds Festival. Over at the Chevron Stage, AJ Tracey, Becky Hill, and Sammy Virji are all set to headline the area, with organisers looking like they have timed this year's event so that there are no clashes between the headline sets across either stage. For example, AJ Tracey's performance on the Chevron Stage concludes at 21:40, with Hozier set to perform on the main stage shortly afterwards. As always, things can (and do) change, so for the most up-to-date set times in the event of an eleventh-hour change, it is strongly recommended to download the official Leeds Festival app, available on both Android and iOS from today. The organisers have also given an update on the current ticketing situation across both the Leeds and Reading sites, too. While there are still tickets available for the festival, those heading to the Reading iteration of the event will have to contend with only two-day ticket options now, as Friday's event has completely sold out. Meanwhile, demand for the new campsite areas this year – The Fields, The Garden, The Meadow, The Glitterball Grove, and The Valley – continues to be overwhelming. So, essentially – don't leave it too late. Here's your set times for Leeds Festival 2025.

D-Block Europe review: Hip-hop act turns Marquee into Cork club night
It was a semblance of a club night at Live at the Marquee on Tuesday as thousands descended onto the Marina to welcome one half of D-Block Europe to the Cork City stage. What is the only hip-hop act of a long line of big top acts, Young Adz performed some of the London-based duo's top hit singles without Dirtbike LB. Their song Prada was also nominated for a Brit award for Song of the Year last year. D-Block Europe or DBE have been around since 2010, after signing a deal with New York rapper Jadakiss. They have slowly been growing in prominence with a younger crowd. D-Block Europe delight fans at Live at the Marquee on Tuesday night. Picture Chani Anderson. D-Block Europe have since raked in some 5bn streams across various global platforms and are known for creating catchy tunes using Autotune and trap beats about sex, drug dealing, and owning luxury items. Their Live at the Marquee concert is the latest in their tour, which has seen a surprise sell-out of both nights. A trove of young teenagers dominated the audience as they snaked their way into the blue and yellow tent under pouring rain and floods. Neon coloured dresses of pink and orange exploded at the venue; knee high boots and tan limbs were exposed as sweaty bodies jumped up and down under the tent. Young lads in tracksuits and hats of various colours eagerly made their way to find the best spot in the standing area, ready to launch themselves into one of the many mosh pits that would maybe open. Concert goers make a dash for the tent during a torrential downpour before the D-Block Europe gig at Live at the Marquee on Tuesday night. Picture: Chani Anderson Special guest Kairo Keyz opened for the duo. He was well-liked by the crowd as the deep bass from his tunes hyped and readied the audience for the big act. Screens of Snapchat recording stuck out across the pit as the DJ for the night hyped the crowd ahead of DBE's set. Young Adz arrived on stage shortly after 9.30pm and performed to the crowd with magnetic energy who were ready to party. Strobe lights of white, blue, and green dancing in the air as the deep bass of their songs echoes across the tent. "You alright, Cork?", Young Adz said after performing their opening tune Darling as he apologised to say that DBE's other half, Dirtbike LB, was not here. This was very similar to their last Irish performance where Young Adz was visibly absent from Longitude's main stage last year.

Powering through most of the set list, Young Adz gave it his all to get the crowd into a momentum, while blaring some familiar favourites including Prada, Ferrari Horses, and Pakistan. DBE will return for a second night at the Marquee on Wednesday with the question of whether it will once again be a one man show or a duo. Kingfishr will then return for another sold-out night on Thursday. Summer gigs at the big top will then conclude this weekend with three nights of Michael McIntyre and his new show MACNIFICENT!

Mr Bigstuff is created by Ryan Sampson, who stars alongside Dyer as two estranged brothers.

Charli XCX, Lola Young and Wham's 'Last Christmas' Get Ivor Awards Nods
Charli XCX's hit album "Brat" and Wham!'s perennial festive hit "Last Christmas" are among the musical works nominated at next month's Ivors, Britain's annual awards honoring songwriters and screen composers. Lola Young was in the lead on Wednesday with three nominations, her first from the Ivors Academy. They included one for rising star, while her single "Messy" was among the contenders for best song musically and lyrically. Her record "This Wasn't Meant for You Anyway" is nominated for best album, alongside Charli XCX's "Brat", which inspired a cultural phenomenon last year, and singer Jordan Rakei's "The Loop". Further nominations went to rappers Ghetts and Berwyn for their albums "On Purpose, With Purpose" and "Who Am I" respectively. Wham's "Last Christmas", which was released in 1984 but regularly returns to the UK charts during the festive season, is nominated in the most performed work category. Its writer, late singer George Michael was last nominated at the Ivors 20 years ago. Also nominated are Dua Lipa's "Houdini", Myles Smith's "Stargazing" and "Prada" by Casso, Raye and D-Block Europe. Harry Styles' 2022 "As It Was", nominated for a third year running, completes the most performed work category list. After winning songwriter of the year at last year's Ivors, Raye is nominated for best song musically and lyrically for her single "Genesis". Also nominated in that category are "Child of Mine" by Laura Marling, "In the Modern World" by Fontaines D.C. and Orla Gartland's "Mine". Best contemporary song contenders are Ghetts' "Double Standards (feat. Sampha)", Pa Salieu's "Allergy", Jade's "Angel of My Dreams", Sans Soucis' "Circumnavigating Georgia" and Bashy's "How Black Men Lose Their Smile". Last month, organizers said Irish rockers U2 would receive the Ivors Academy Fellowship, the UK-based association's highest honor, at this year's awards, their 70th edition. Named after the early 20th century Welsh composer, actor and entertainer Ivor Novello, the Ivor Awards were first handed out in 1956. This year's ceremony will be held on May 22 in London.
