Guns N' Roses will headline this year's Reading and Leeds Festival, alongside Arcade Fire and Blink 182.

The American trio will each close one night of the three-day event, which takes place on August 27-29 and rotates between the two sites.

They will be supported by a reformed Libertines, rapper Dizzee Rascal, chart-topping rock band Paramore, Biffy Clyro and Queens of the Stone Age.
