THE 2014 Leeds Festival will see more than 200 acts take to the multitude of stages at Bramham Park, near Wetherby, in a bill topped by Blink-182 tomorrow, Paramore and Queens Of The Stone Age on Saturday and Arctic Monkeys on Sunday.

Weather forecasters are predicting overcast skies and rainfall tomorrow but dry conditions and sunny spells on Saturday and Sunday with a maximum temperature each day of 17 degrees centigrade, so festival-goers may be spared the traditional full-scale quagmire.

Vampire Weekend, Enter Shakiri, Imagine Dragons and You And Me At Six have Main Stage spots, while the NME/Radio 1 stage presents Courteeners, Bombay Bicycle Club and Disclosure (Live) in the headline slots, with the likes of Metronomy, Warpaint, Cage The Elephant, The 1975 and The Horrors in action there too.

On the Lock Up stage, Empress AD, Misty Miller and Blacklist Royals are part of a punk and rock line-up that includes Jimmy Eat World and Gogol Bordello; Festival Republic Stage headliners Palma Violets, Band Of Skulls and Augustines will be backed up We Are Scientists, Childhood, Sweethead, Dolomite Minor, The Bohicas, The Royal Concept, X Ambassadors, Flyte and Twisted Wheel.

The BBC Radio 1 Xtra Stage returns for its second year of hip hop, urban and grime, with headline acts Giggs, Pusha T, Danny Brown and Joey Bada$$ preceded by Sinead Harnett, Sasha Keable, Mirror Signal, Bad Rabbits, Star.One and Tinashe.
