About Glastonbury 2025
Glastonbury 2025 was Worthy Farm's last dance before the fallow year: five June days in Somerset with The 1975, Neil Young and Olivia Rodrigo headlining the Pyramid Stage on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and Rod Stewart taking the Sunday-afternoon legends slot.
As ever, the top of the Pyramid was maybe a third of the story. Pulp's surprise return and Lorde's unannounced Woodsies set were the weekend's worst-kept secrets; Charli XCX brought the brat era to the Other Stage and The Prodigy closed it; Doechii and Overmono held down West Holts; and the undercard ran from Turnstile and Wolf Alice to Burning Spear, Kae Tempest and En Vogue. A hundred stages' worth of everything, of which the 113 acts here are the spine.
There is no Glastonbury in 2026 (the farm rests on its scheduled fallow year), which makes this bill the freshest record of what the festival is until 2027.
Expect alternative, pop, rock and alt-rock across 113 acts.

Jagged Little Pill at festival scale — the '90s' most cathartic songbook, still sung full-throated by everyone in the field.
Amy Taylor might be the best frontperson alive right now — Aussie pub-punk voltage, all sprint and snarl, from a band that treats every stage like a title fight.
Anohni and the Johnsons

Scotland's shirtless festival warriors — knotty math-rock instincts wired to enormous singalong choruses.
Americana's reigning voice — eleven Grammys of thunder and grace, with a catalog that moves from whisper to belt like weather changing.
Roots reggae's living conscience — Marcus Garvey hymns delivered with unshakeable calm.
Three decades of the fastest, most physically committed delivery in rap, and none of it has slowed down — a hits catalog that turns any field into a block party.
Dan Snaith's dancefloor-facing project, mathematician's precision applied to warm, looping house built from chopped vocals and live drums.
Smoke-voiced British soul — torch songs with modern nerve, a BRIT-anointed voice built for the spotlight and the string section.
Pop's reigning vanguardist — the brat era's architect bringing club-pop chaos to the main stage, a decade of underground experiments finally cashing out at scale.
Irish country-pop with a wicked sense of humor and a bigger voice — a riotous live show that swings from comedy to gut-punch inside one chorus.
Switches cadence mid-bar like she's changing characters — theatrical, technically ferocious rap that never sits still long enough to be filed.

Kieran Hebden's glowing folk-tronic universe — patient builds that hit like revelation, two decades of textures that make dance music feel handmade.
Glasgow's art-school dance-punks — 'Take Me Out' still detonates a field two decades on, and the deep cuts still make people dance.
Diaristic songwriting that moved from hushed bedroom recordings to full-band arrangements without losing the whispered intimacy at its core.
Dublin four-piece trading in big-reverb guitar hooks and baritone vocals, closer to eighties post-punk radio than the Britpop revival they get filed with.

Warm, live-instrument house that leans soul rather than club — the kind of set that works equally well at golden hour and at three in the morning.
Tyneside songwriter with a deep, dry contralto and a sharp political eye, working post-punk textures into art-rock — the Mercury-nominated 'Holiday Destination' made the case.

Brighton duo of Jordan Stephens and Harley Alexander-Sule, whose brass-happy, wisecracking pop-rap was inescapable on UK radio in the early 2010s.
Six decades of gravel and swagger — from the Faces to the Great American Songbook, still rock's raspiest showman.
New York glam-disco troupe fronted by Jake Shears and Ana Matronic, whose falsetto hooks and cabaret theatrics turned 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin'' into a global staple.

Grime's global ambassador — Konnichiwa-era bars and a DJ's instincts, London energy at any scale, 'Shutdown' still a detonation.
Gary Lightbody's band, together since the mid-nineties and long past needing to prove the big chorus — slow-build alt-rock that became a stadium language.
Britpop's cheekiest survivors — 'Alright' forever young, the catalog sneakily one of the era's best.
Albion's prodigal poets — Doherty and Barât still shambolic, still romantic, still the best bad idea British rock ever had.

Firestarters, still — the UK's rave-punk institution hits harder than bands half their age, three decades of menace intact.
Dublin's arena-pop reliables — 'Breakeven' and a decade of radio-rock comfort food.
2 Tone originals — Pauline Black fronting ska's sharpest political dance party since 1979.

Mercury-winning UK alt-rock — from whispered folk to full-throated fuzz in one set, Ellie Rowsell commanding every register.
West London grime star gone festival-sized — melodic flexes, 'Ladbroke Grove' garage bounce, and a UK-rap versatility that moves between road and radio without strain.
Brixton outfit splicing acid house with country, gospel and blues into their own self-styled hybrid — the band behind the song that opens every episode of The Sopranos.
Righteous Babe founder who built a career on her own label rather than anyone else's terms — percussive open-tuned guitar and unsparing political folk.

Hushed English folk with a river-water voice — quietly one of the best writers of her generation, turning small domestic details into devastating songs.
Barking's electric troubadour, welding trade-union politics to love songs since the early eighties — a solo voice, a loud guitar and no interest in separating the two.
Seven-piece from the Cambridgeshire scene turning klezmer-tinged chamber arrangements into something cathartic — now built around shared, passed-around vocals.
Jamaican roots harmony group active since the early seventies, whose militant vocal trio format and heavy dub foundation shaped reggae's international breakthrough.
Stockport five-piece who turned synth-lined indie-pop into a run of UK number-one albums — melodic, unhurried, and impossible to leave a field before.
British two-piece welding punk guitar to grime cadence, drums and vocals and nothing spare — blunt writing on race, class and Britain, delivered at volume.
Cymande
Carol City rapper with a voice built for volume, swerving between hardcore aggression and genuine introspection while reshaping his sound album to album.
Multi-instrumentalist and film composer working in dark, texture-heavy electronic rock — a songwriter with an unavoidable surname and his own set of ideas.

Josh Tillman's lounge-lizard prophet act — gorgeous orchestration, acid wit, and a crooner's delivery that sells every barbed line.
Pedal steel and yacht-rock chords under deadpan songwriting about being slightly bored and very sad — Atlanta cool that turned ennui into a signature sound.
Neuroscientist-turned-producer moving between orchestral ambient and genuinely propulsive dance floors — equally at home with Pharoah Sanders and a peak-time rave.
Baltimore band whose new-wave synths and rubbery bass lines exist mainly as a frame for Samuel T. Herring's croon-to-growl delivery and famously unrestrained physical presence.

South London singer Aria Wells, whose smoke-hazed take on soul leans on dub weight and a voice that slides around the beat rather than sitting on it.

London poet, playwright and novelist who raps as an extension of the page — dense narrative verse delivered with the cadence of spoken word rather than bars.
Kate Nash

The NZ art-pop auteur — brooding, minimal, and generation-defining, back on a headline stage where the whispered verses hit hardest.
English songwriter and producer behind much of the late-'70s power-pop and new-wave canon — sharp melodic craft, delivered with a straight face and a dry joke underneath.
