Closing the main stage of Reading Festival 2026 as the second of Sunday night’s headliners are award-winning electronic heavyweights Chase & Status. As early innovators who played a pivotal role in bringing drum and bass to a wider audience, the duo have cemented their place as one of the genre’s biggest names. Over the past two decades, they have built a reputation for huge anthems, iconic collaborations and explosive live shows. With a string of singles already landing in 2026, they are set to return to the festival 13 years after their last appearance.
