ALT LDN Festival 2021

On this day: August 27 2021

Sleep Token had been slated to perform for the ALT LDN festival in 2021 but posted on this day that they were no longer going to be attending. This was likely due to the myriad of issues that surrounded the festival that year.

Caption on the collective’s social media with this coral mask design:

Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond their control, Sleep Token shall no longer be performing at the ALT LDN Festival.

Reading Festival 2018

On This Day: August 26 2018

Sleep Token performed their 10th ritual at Reading Fest on this day in 2018. They were on the same stage as Leeds a couple of days before, The Pit/The Lock Up, performing around the same hour of 13:30 (1:30PM) local time.

While there is no official reporting of the setlist for this ritual, as with Leeds, it is safe to presume that it was similar to the UK Tech-Fest in July, again with the addition of their rendition of Hey Ya at some point in the set.
