Daily capacity: 150,000

We've tracked down some of the bands you can expect to see on the Pyramid Stage (and when!) at this year's Glastonbury Festival.

On Friday night, we expect Keane to be the act that plays before the headliner (or perhaps the third from last). Michael Eavis saw them at their re-scheduled gig in Bristol last night, and we're told that although the band were keeping their lips tightly zipped, the same can't be said for Michael.

Saturday night - which Michael has been quoted as saying would have "the best songwriters in the world today" - we believe will be headlined by Coldplay. We're uncertain who will play before them, but Embrace is a name that has been mentioned.

And third from top on Saturday we believe is to be Ian Brown, who is likely to be playing a set with many Stone Roses numbers. Our own information on this appears to be confirmed by comments Brown made to BBC's 6 Music.

You'll find the very best rumours (as available) for Glastonbury 2005 here.
