Fans have already been sharing their joy at the fresh new line-up on Twitter.
Taking to Twitter, one user wrote: “I am going to cry when I see Alex Turner’s face #RandL22.”
Another wrote: “Of course I was going anyway, but with that line up, I’ll definitely be seeing #RandL22 for the seventh time.”

General release tickets for the first announcement go on sale Friday, though there will be plenty more acts to be announced following the release.
Last night, prior to the full announcement, the Reading and Leeds Twitter account confirmed that all the first release tickets had sold out following a rumoured leak of two of the artists.
The festival will be back for the second year running after the 2020 show was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Although 2021 proved to be a challenge still with coronavirus, some festivals were able to go ahead in August due to changes in Covid-19 guidelines.
