Add the Killers to that list. They’re around at that time 

Add Stevie Nicks 🤞🏼

Lol, I've inadvertently started new excitement for a new headliner!

Based on a quick google, it seems SZA has lots of other gigs coming up, so I don't think this is likely ... but having said that, my pipe dream is ...

Friday - Kings Of Leon (only day they are free, I'm gonna hope!)
Saturday - Coldplay
Sunday - Dua Lipa - (Moved for Kings Of Leon, and I'll see The National.)

🙏 😉

She's not gonna cancel.

Only thing that would make me think otherwise is if she cancels her BST gig on the Saturday.

 

Glastonbury is a massive gig for her and would be the last one she'd cancel.

 

Maybe it's just wishful thinking cause I'd be gutted if she did

[Euphoricape]

Bump Idles up again, put Fontaines DC in their place. Clash sorted!

Pulp to save the day. Again.

Hell, yeah!! I was there in 95, they stole the show

[Gnomicide]

Day and time splits for Genosys.

Is that unusual, a stage announcing that before the full line up?

Not massively. We've already had splits for the Cinema (albeit yes it's not exactly the same thing).

I wonder if we’ll hear anything from the SZA camp about the Fuji Rock announcement. It might just be that they’re on the ball and first one to get it out and maybe she’s cancelled all festivals from here on out. Should find out soon enough as she’s due to play Primavera this weekend. 
 

If she was to pull out I think it’d either be Green Day or The Killers as both in the area and free. 

[Ashl]

Wonder if we might get the rest at 1 and its a clock mess up from Block 9 GMT vs BST.. can but hope!

Yeah this was my first thought too, I'm definitely overthinking though!

Still one of my favourite ever gigs

[mufcok]

Has an actual reason been given? (I may have missed that in the flurry of replies)

 

BST isn't selling very well, at all, though I don't think that would play into festivals.

Doesn’t seem like there’s a reason. Well nothings been mentioned anyway.

Yeah there hasn't ever been a year where there was an announcement the day before the full lineup drop. For that reason I'm thinking Thursday now - let's hope for a day of silence tomorrow.

 

Let's hope. We just want or now but I'd kind of be surprised if it wasn't Thursday and I don't expect it late as Friday.

Crazy the amount of excitement around the prospect of an alternative tells you have much anyone cares she's been booked.

Is there somewhere I can find a plain text alphabetical list of every artist announced so far.
 

Some of these posters are a bit of a word soup and I’ve stopped paying any real attention to them.

Go to the line and rumours tab of the Glastonbury 2024 page from the main eFests homepage.

How does everyone know how BST is selling? Someone told me that the Stray Kids day was sold out and I was a bit sceptical.

Tickets available - on tier 3 but not sold out.

We can easily see which days are and aren't sold out, just by going to the ticketing website (Stray Kids definitely isn't).

 

Beyond that no idea about the specific volumes. Though you can sometimes get an indication by how many / how cheap tickets are on resale sites.

How long does it take the Clashfinder to be updated after the full lineup has been released? Does someone have to type it all in or is it done quickly with some fancy coding?

Quick coding, I think someone said Halvin might be unavailable at times this week so depends when it drops

Once the page goes live, it's pretty easy to scrape the contents, export it to Excel, and then manipulate it into a format that can be pasted into Clashfinder.

 

I reckon I could do it in 10 minutes, and I won't be nearly as practised at it.

You are grossly over estimating my computer skills 😆
