Capaldi has already responded to people calling out his placement on the 2023 line-up, writing, "'Reading and Leeds is a ROCK festival what the fuck is Lewis Capaldi doing there', 'Lewis Capaldi isn’t festival material'. Fuck ye. Dream come true to be one of the headliners for Reading and Leeds next year, see ye there."
