Glastonbury Festival has revealed the line-up for this year’s event as it announced the headline acts which include The 1975, Neil Young and Olivia Rodrigo.
This year’s festival will feature two first time headliners, British pop-rock group the 1975 and the US pop-punk songwriter Olivia Rodrigo.
Moments after the acts were announced, festival goers who had already purchased their tickets took to social media in their droves to complain about the line-up.
Branding it the ‘worst one ever’, they claimed that the globally recognised event had ‘gone so far downhill’ in comparison to previous years.

Pop princess Olivia, who performed on the Other Stage in 2022, will serve as the headline act on the closing night of the event.

Canadian singer-songwriter Neil will fill the Saturday night slot, which will also see performances from Charli XCX, Raye and Doechii.
Neil previously accidentally announced he would be playing at the event on January 1 when he declared he would be ‘withdrawing’ from the festival – despite it never being confirmed in the first place.
He cited that it was due to the fact the event was under broadcast partner the BBC’s ‘corporate control’, before admitting he had received bad information and confirmed he would once again perform.
Sir Rod Stewart was already confirmed for the coveted teatime legends slot on the Sunday.
Rod, who turned 80 in January, said he was ‘more than able to pleasure and тιтillate’ at his age.
The Other stage headliners have also been revealed. After turning the world lime green with her Brat Summer – and rivalling Dua Lipa’s headline performance with a DJ set with merely a DJ set at Glastonbury 2024 – Charli xcx will headline the festival’s second stage on Saturday.
The London rapper Loyle Carner headlines it on Friday, and the Prodigy will close the stage on Sunday – the dance group’s first Glastonbury performance since the death of their frontman, Keith Flint, in 2019, just before that year’s festival.
Glastonbury is taking a fallow year in 2026 to allow the farmland to recover, organisers said last year.
In 2024, London-born singer Dua Lipa, rock band Coldplay and American singer Sza all headlined the Pyramid Stage.
