I'll give them credit for putting a background on it, therefore distinguishing it from people who simply reused the template from the last couple years.

But no, obviously not.

Even if he wasn't - headliners are generally put in day order. The last time they weren't was 2019 (and that was rare).

Swear I've seen that one on here already about 5 or 6 times.

To be fair (though maybe we shouldn't), not everyone who's playing will be on the initial poster when it comes. Even if they have self-confirmed.

We've got 21 near-enough-confirmed names for West Holts due to that leak, I'd guess that less than half of them will make the first poster.

This is painful now. Please Glasto, give us some news! 🙏

There's at least 2 on there that are ruled out. Plus of course, it's Deckchair's prediction from a few weeks back. 

I'd have believed it if it was in black and white.

There's been a stupid number of these mobile phone "posters" going round this year.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Happens every year. Real poster has never ever leaked afaik

[Spindles]

No Didier Drogba.  I'm not buying it.

A lot of people seem to believe we've got a poster drop in the morning though.

I was going to have a bit of a lie-in, alarm set to make sure I'm up before 8 now (no idea on time btw).

or they can’t announce yet because act(s) have contractural obligations to other event(s) when it comes to announcements.

it would be a nightmare (just about impossible) to liase for every band - when they're booked they're given the announcement date and the booking agent will have to make that work for any other bookings for that act.

Alright! Is today the day?

I was just about to go make a fake poster of my own to mess with people. Then I quickly realised that I really can't be arsed.

But a hint to anyone who does want to try -

Can you at least do it with the 2024 graphics rather than all the previous attempts that have rehashed the ones from 2022 and 2023, so that it's at least interesting for us trying to debunk it?

From the ETC poster. Note the different (more muted) colour scheme compared to previous years.

Cheers.

Don't we normally get lots of site pings?

[Jack.194]

How many sources are suggesting there’s a poster drop today? Just the one? That doesn’t do it for me

Yeah.

To be fair, I've no idea who (if anyone) is monitoring for that though so it's possible that the changes were made but nobody is currently looking.
