The Glastonbury 2025 lineup has been announced, revealing that British rock band The 1975 and US pop star Olivia Rodrigo will join Neil Young as the festival’s three headliners.
Other acts on the lineup include Brit Award-winning, Grammy-nominated star Charli XCX, singer RAYE, Grammy-winning rapper Doechii, British hip-hop artist Loyle Carner, Scottish rock band Biffy Clyro, rapper Busta Rhymes.
It was announced last year that Rod Stewart will take on the Sunday teatime Legends slot on the Pyramid Stage.
Led by frontman Matty Healy, The 1975 will top the Friday billing on the Pyramid Stage, marking their debut as headliners. They are Glastonbury veterans, having performed at the Worthy Farm bonanza three times, including in 2014 and 2016.
Rodrigo proved herself to be a favourite among Glastonbury-goers back in 2022, when she appeared on the Other Stage and brought out British singer Lily Allen to sing her song “F*** You” in response to the US Supreme Court ruling over Roe v Wade.
She will headline Sunday night on the Pyramid Stage.

Just two days later, he said that he had received an “error in information” and that the festival was “back on our itinerary”. He previously headlined Glastonbury in 2009.
Pop-soul artist RAYE looks set to enjoy another huge year as she returns from performing at the 2025 Academy Awards, and will now play on the Pyramid Stage before Young’s set.
The 27-year-old swept the Brit Awards last year thanks to her debut album, My 21st Century Blues, which she delivered as an independent artist after walking away from her record label, following a battle over their apparent refusal to let her release her own music.
