The iconic Glastonbury Festival is set to astonish audiences once again with a lineup that underscores its longstanding reputation as one of the world's leading music festivals. Taking place from June 25 to 29 at Worthy Farm in Somerset, Glastonbury 2025 has announced a stellar list of headliners that includes The 1975, Neil Young, and Olivia Rodrigo. These acts, performing on the renowned Pyramid Stage, promise to bring a mix of classic rock nostalgia and contemporary pop and rock vibrancy. The festival will also shine a spotlight on the Other Stage, featuring highly anticipated performances by Charli XCX, Alanis Morissette, and The Prodigy.

Charli XCX will be among the prominent acts this year, topping the bill on the festival's second stage on June 28th. Known for her dynamic live performances and chart-topping hits, Charli XCX is poised to deliver an electrifying blend of pop and electronic music. Her presence at the festival will be complemented by her recent critical success with the album Brat, which won her multiple Brit Awards, highlighting a career of prolific achievements. Alanis Morissette, a first-time performer at Glastonbury, joins her as another major highlight, ensuring an unforgettable evening of music and performance excellence.

Neil Young, an esteemed veteran of the music industry, will headline the Pyramid Stage on June 28th, supported by his band, the Chrome Hearts. His participation marks a triumphant return to the Glastonbury stage since his last appearance in 2009. This performance will be particularly special after an initial announcement suggested Young might pull out of the festival due to corporate concerns related to its partnership with the BBC. However, he clarified this apparent “error in information” and expressed eagerness to once again entertain the festival's devoted crowd.

Another remarkable aspect of this year's festival is the headlining performance by Olivia Rodrigo on June 29th, marking her first time at the main stage's helm. Her rise to prominence has been swift and impressive, having initially captured worldwide attention with the release of her debut album Sour, featuring hits such as “Driver's License.” Her follow-up album, Guts, consolidated her stature in the pop music industry.

Legendary Rod Stewart will take on the “legends” slot with a mid-afternoon performance that is set to captivate audiences with his classic hits. The Prodigy, known for their high-energy performances, will close out the stage for the weekend, in what is expected to be a fitting and nostalgic tribute to their late frontman, Keith Flint.

In addition to the foremost acts, Glastonbury 2025 will feature an abundance of fresh talent and seasoned performers, ranging from the indie tones of Wolf Alice to the soulful stylings of Jorja Smith and the resurgent rock presence of The Libertines. Noah Kahan, Gracie Abrams, and Doechii are among the noteworthy debutantes, bringing new flavors to the already diverse lineup. More acts, including Sabrina Carpenter and Chappell Roan, are rumored to join the bill, continuing the festival’s tradition of surprising announcements leading up to the event.

Overall, Glastonbury 2025 promises an eclectic mix of attendees' favorite acts alongside thrilling newcomers, committed to offering an unparalleled festival experience. Tickets have sold out, with the festival preparing for a fallow year in 2026, allowing the land and the local community a period of rest before another prospective return of musical splendor.
