I'd definitely expect at least 1 older at When Dua first announced Wembley for the Friday of the festival I thought she seemed nailed on for one of the Sat/Sun nights but with two nights in London feels pretty unlikely. She wouldn't do 3 consecutive days of shows that big would she? Catfish doing their 'return' this summer with a few shows plus R+L makes me think they will be dropping an album then either an arena tour early 2025 or a festival run or both. I think they're on the smaller end of what constitutes headliner but could possibly still do a Friday night if the other two are big enough. Fender I kinda pulled out of thin air, could be literally anyone lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is shocking (so about right) Surely got to be a co-headliner with one Stereophonics / Sting. Is sting even headline full stop these days?

KevRP Posted 10 hours ago Report Share Posted 10 hours ago 2 hours ago, WhoOdyssey said: It’s Stereophonics, Sting & Justin Timberlake from what I’ve heard. The Police were underwhelming when they headlined back in 2008, the others meh. Not top of (or even on) any wish list. JT and Sting are both on the Solo/Live Nation books so makes sense. Still clinging to some faint U2 hope, a new album and tour is possible for 2025, though 2026 is now looking more likely. Oasis have sold 1.2m 2025 tickets to the core IOW demographic, not many can afford two big outlays within a few months of each other - predicting a quieter year.

It's not last years levels but then I think PSB is a worse booking than any of those. Green Day cost a lot though so they can't be expected every year. It does however put Sting in the frame I'd say to finally be at Glastonbury potentially the week after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its definitely possible i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like there was a point when they could've pushed on for stadiums whereas now they feel like they're barely arena level. Even if when I saw them in Birmingham 2 years ago, the standing section was still very busy indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they can comfortably sell out 5k venues but their moment has passed, I wouldn't be surprised if it was Sting/ Biffy as a co headline.

I wouldn't say that a band selling out the o2, the NEC, Glasgow, Leeds, Cardiff, Bournemouth and Belfast after headlining Download was someone playing the small arenas and someone who will drop to smaller venues. Architects are my favourite band and even I would admit taht the floor was half full at most when they were on. Biffy won't be there anyway. They are playing Southside and Hurricane in Germany IOW weekend. My guess is that they will headline The Other at Glastonbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely love Biffy, just thought it was an odd tour to play Leeds over Manchester (that's why I said noticeably smaller). The download crowd moan when they play...but when don't they moan?
