The line-up for Glastonbury 2025 has been announced – with Neil Young, The 1975 and Olivia Rodrigo set to headline alongside many other acts like Charli XCX, Wolf Alice and Noah Kahan. Check out the full line-up so far below.
The festival will return to Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset from June 25 to 29, and the long-awaited first main batch of names has been revealed – with more to be shared in the coming months.
Young was already confirmed to headline the Pyramid Stage (after initially pulling out due to creative differences with the festival and claiming it was a “corporate turn-off“), while Rod Stewart had been revealed for the coveted Sunday Legend Slot, with Nile Rodgers letting slip that he and Chic will be performing directly after him.
Two of the most rumoured names to top the bill in recent months were Olivia Rodrigo and The 1975 – with further whisperings of Taylor Swift, Sam Fender, Stevie Wonder and Rihanna (the latter with London stadium shows reportedly on the cards).
Now, it has been confirmed that Matty Healy and co. will headline the Friday night ahead of bill-topping slots from Young and Rodrigo on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.
Other names on the bill include Charli XCX, Alanis Morissette, Lucy Dacus, Raye, Wolf Alice, The Prodigy, Doechii, Deftones, The Libertines and Wet Leg.
The 1975 have been sharing photos on social media from the studio of them at work on the follow-up to 2022’s’ Being Funny In A Foreign Language‘ – with some fans believing that frontman Matty Healy already shared a working tracklist and rumours of a song about his past romance with Taylor Swift – while the band have also been involved in a public spat with Azealia Banks and cleared of liability for the fall-out from Healy and bassist Ross MacDonald’s on-stage kiss at a Malaysian festival in protest to the country’s strict anti-LGBTQ+ laws.
Olivia Rodrigo, meanwhile, has a stacked summer of topping the bill at European festivals ahead alongside her biggest UK headline show to date at London’s BST Hyde Park the weekend of Glastonbury, in support of 2023’s massive album ‘Guts‘. Her last appearance at Worthy Farm was in 2022, earning five-stars from NME and inviting Lily Allen to the stage for a surprise collab.
Neil Young is set to drop his debut album with new band The Chrome Hearts, as well as headlining his own night at BST Hyde Park and a free concert in war-torn Ukraine. Last month, the songwriting icon released his “lost” album Oceanside Countryside from the ‘70s.
General tickets to Glastonbury 2025 sold out in 35 minutes, with coach and ticket packages going in just over half an hour. The festival used a queuing system on purchase day for the first time.
A limited number of tickets will be available next month via a re-sale of unwanted tickets and those from fans with unpaid balances.
The iconic Pilton festival is set to take its traditional fallow year off in 2026, before returning in 2027, to allow the farmland to recover.
Last year’s Glastonbury saw headline sets from Coldplay, Dua Lipa and SZA, as well as stellar performances from the likes of IDLES, Fontaines D.C., Kneecap, SEVENTEEN, The National, Justice, and LCD Soundsystem.
