Ezra will headline either 21 or 22. Just depends on when his next album is out.

almost certainly, though I would imagine Capaldi would now also be in  the frame

If the 1975 don’t play this year then maybe them. If they play this year on the other stage then I doubt it.

From what I’ve told by “that guy” they are playing this year.

Probably not true or falls through though. They will want to headline outright imo they’ve done Sziget, R&L so...

Well then they should be off all the predictions.

George Ezra, Ariana Grande, Arctic Monkeys is my guess for now then.

Lady Gaga // Arctic Monkeys // Elton John

Aye my guess too. 

[wro_lap]

Any predictions for what page number we’ll hit for people to start suggesting Elton could play the legend slot?

[Crazyfool01]

Elton will play the legend slot

Gaga will ride on how her Vegas residency extension pans out. She mentioned at a show a couple nights ago that she is going to be there for a couple more years. 
 

Depeche Mode, Elton, Rihanna

Dude billies debut album is predicted to win every single category it’s nominated for at the Grammys. It’s also one of the best selling albums of the year. With one album she’s managed to sell out 4 nights at the O2 amongst other dates in the UK. What more does it take?

Another strong album. Stormzy is the typical counter point to this but he was a UK act who needed a boost. Billie is successful because of her industry connections and requires no help. She’s already been elevated once at Glastonbury. She’ll need another strong album before she’s offered a headline slot.

[Hugh Jass]

At this stage nobody knows who will be touring in 2021 or beyond so it feels a little pointless to make concrete predictions at this stage.

However I’m confident the following acts will headline on their next cycles, whenever that may be:

George Ezra, Fleetwood Mac, Arctic Monkeys, Gaga, The 1975 (if they’re not there this year),

[Gilgamesh69]

Imagine Lady Gaga and Depeche Mode headlining the same year. Would be gidtier regardless of who the third one is

[Dronx]

Billie Eilish

Arctic Monkeys

Lady Gaga

I may not be going in 2021 cos of other commitments (and a semi-agreement with the Mrs...), so if I don't, and this is the line up, I'd be jumping off a fucking bridge.

If RHCP are headlining, you'll have to join the queue.

For you. But I think he’s now become probably one of the most safest and well known music names in Britain. He’s going to headline one day so might as well just get it over with!

For anyone whose brain is attached to their ears.

👅 Now John is back with them, they're worth watching for him alone.

George Ezra would be the worst headliner ever.

It would be a fucking travesty.

Look. The energy I’m taking in 2020 and the next decade is realising that I live in my own little bubble and echo chamber. What I consider good, or worthy, is not necessarily what the general public consider good or exciting.

I don’t find Ezra interesting at all, but he is clearly a very popular artist with a lot of people and the festival goes on by booking artists which people find exciting.

Look at how happy the crowd is. This is exactly the sort of headline booking Glastonbury should be making if they want to be loved for years to come.

Ive been spoilt with the selection of fantastic artists that I have been lucky to see — maybe we should now let a new generation see their heroes on the pyramid stage, no?

[Bisque]

If Mumford & Sons can headline (& I personally thought they should, one of the biggest bands around at the time) so should Ezra.

It might look crap on the poster but tickets will have been sold out & the media would lap it up. He’ll be on the One Show saying how amazing Glastonbury is to perform at.

He’s no Ed Sheeran but another decent album with songs like Shotgun then I’m in.

Plus the other huge inevitable headliners would make it look less crap.

& The 1975, that’s just info from that guy in Bristol. They’ll headline one year I’m sure. Do a Stormzy maybe.
