if she carries on soom she will be headlining

would be insane imo. no one is doubting her critical acclaim but her biggest album got to number 4 as far as I can see. Has she even played arenas?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Jesus. That f**king Friday night line up. f**k me.

[CaledonianGonzo]

And it's better than the Saturday.

They were never going to get both Madge and Stevie.

I imagine one of them was earmarked for the SZA slot, not Coldplay or Dua.

miming?

dua and sza  are definitely a downgrade on those.

The attempted booking order chain must have gone:

Madge -> Stevie -> O-Rod and / or Stevie Nicks -> SZA

Unless its true that they're carrying on into 2025, so may have already signed in for that

Jarvis said recently they have dates booked for 2025. So that's my guess too.

Confidence Man have confirmed as the Friday, if people are looking for day patterns in the poster order

i would have mentioned that madge is on her miming pension tour. and  i might have said that i didn't think stevie wonder was great last time (i was very very pissed that night[no, that was a different night]).

Looking forward to Little Simz but billing her before Coldplay is an odd move. Couldn’t be more different music and audience wise

Again, Madge was never in the running.

Depends what that means.

Was she a target for the festival to book and they tried their damndest to do it?

I'm fairly sure she was their number one priority to land this year - and it just didn't work out.

completely agree, although I love little simz and will be reluctantly watching Coldplay so it works for me

While the Clashfinder is still mostly guesswork - yes, they will clash.

That's not smart at all from Organisers...

Interesting take on things in the Telegraph

Very possibly but the conversation would've went:

Glasto: "Hi would Madonna be interested in playing Glastonbury?"

Madges agent: "No its an indoor production"

Glasto: "Ok thanks".

Very likely. Or they got strung along for a while - cos it sounds like other festivals were also in the fray on it (BST, Rock in Rio)

Why have they clashed idles and Fontaines? Please move Fontaines DC to Saturday night. Are they definitely both Friday night headliners? Park will be empty as same fans will be at Idles. Makes no sense at all.

I'm worried about the opposite - I'll be at Fontaines out of the two and think the park might be rammed

Surely even Glasto thread readers aren't Tory enough to have a Telegraph subscription. 😉

Saw the words 'too pop' in the URL and knew it would be Neil McCormick at work

Dua Lipa a breakout star? Shes nearly 30 and her 3rd album is coming out soon. I saw her play on the main stage at Mad Cool in 2018.

Ive a sub. 3 quid a month. Good for music and grub. And travel. 

And just threaten to cancel every 6 months and theyll drop their pants.

First timer and still understanding how to feel about the lineup. At first was very happy (outside of headliners) but now reading these comments I agree there's some magic missing. No big surprises or breakout artists right before they're clearly about to blow up. It feels hard to spot them now, but I'm sure there'll be so many amazing moments. 

That being said, there's like 20+ acts I am really keen to see already so I can't wait!

I don't even think the Friday night is amazing by the festival standards. It's just looks stellar because the other two nights look so so poor. 

Genuinely not interested in a single Pyramid or Other headline act. Might be the first time ever I wouldn't care about missing any of the 6. 

Justice on WH to save the weekend for our group but for 360 quid that isn't enough for me.

Should have been a fallow year......😂

You’ll have an absolute blast … so much going on . So much more to come 🙂
