eFestivals has it on good authority that there will be no fourth headliner announced for this year's Glastonbury Festival.

It had been well reported that festival organiser Michael Eavis had mentioned a fourth headline act for this year's festival line-up. He had told the BBC that, "We've got four headliners at the moment. If they all confirm, then I've got two headliners for Saturday."

However, it would seem that plans to book the band, who were being lined-up to play have fallen through, with the act no longer able to play the festival due to other commitments, and therefore there will be no fourth headlining act.

Tickets for Glastonbury Festival held for five full days from Wednesday 24th until Sunday 28th June 2009 at Worthy Farm, Pilton, Somerset have already sold out months before the event.

Although the full line-up for this year's Festival has not yet been announced, To see who has been confirmed, and who might be playing take a look at the eFestivals' Glastonbury 2009 rumours >>.

A further release of a limited number of cancelled tickets will go on sale from 9am on Sunday 5th April 2009, although in order to do so you must have registered beforehand to be eligible to buy a ticket. However, it's unlikely that they'll be a huge number of tickets available on that day. They will be priced at £175 (plus a booking fee of £5).
