Limp Bizkit make their triumphant return to Reading and Leeds this weekend, with the band playing Reading on Saturday and Leeds the following day. They're enjoying somewhat of a resurgence right now and will perform just prior to Bring Me The Horizon's headline set.

If you can't make it to the weekend festival, we're holding out hope that there will be an opportunity to watch Fred Durst, Wes Borland, John Otto, Sam Rivers and DJ Lethal do their thing on the BBC iPlayer. Currently, the BBC has confirmed that highlights from Bring Me and Chappell Roan's sets will be broadcast – so we're hoping this will be the same for Bizkit.

And if you’re going to be out of the country this weekend grabbing some summer sun, you’ll can still stream iPlayer through a VPN.

Yes they have! Limp Bizkit made their Reading and Leeds debut back in 1997 when they played on the Lock Up Stage in support of their debut album Three Dollar Bill, Y'all.

They returned to the UK festival in 2000 when they were touring their massive Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water album which was released the same year.

They returned in 2010, with their last appearance coming in 2015 during the band's summer tour.

Limp Bizkit's 2025 plans

Following their Reading and Leeds appearance, Limp Bizkit have a handful of live dates planned for the remainder of 2025, with their next show taking place in Mexico City on November 29.
