Elsewhere, The Aux stage will host an array of podcasts, interactive talks and live streams on various subjects. Newly announced names include Chunkz & Filly, and Max Balegde and George Clarke will now bring The Useless Hotline podcast to Leeds due to demand.
There will also be appearances from Goes Without Saying podcast Sephy and Wing, and Sydney Cassidy with her Gym Girl’s Locker Room podcast. Additionally, Jodie Bryant will be joined by Arthur Hill, as part of her YouTube show Fan Girl Files.
The stage will also launch a series of Unplugged sessions with various artists including The Vamps’ frontman Bradley Simpson, and Dork music magazine's Down With Boring podcast will discuss all things music.
The new names join a mammoth line-up that's led by headliners Blink-182, Lana Del Rey, Liam Gallagher, Fred Again.. (UK festival exclusive), Catfish and the Bottlemen, and Gerry Cinnamon.
