The news comes after the festivals were criticised over a lack of women on the bill.
DJ Annie Mac wrote on Twitter: “Feeling so disheartened about this Reading and Leeds line up. At the blatant lack of want to represent women.
“For all the 16 year old girls going to their first festival at Reading and Leeds 2020. Just know that you DO belong on those stages.”
Mabel, Mahalia and Lady Leshurr are among the female acts who will perform at the the dual festivals.
