Glastonbury Festival: Olivia Rodrigo, The 1975 & Doechii Among New Lineup Additions

Glastonbury has unveiled the first names for the 2025 edition of the festival, with The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo and Neil Young billed as headliners. View the lineup in full below.
The British group will top the Pyramid Stage for the first time on Friday (June 26), ahead of Rodrigo on Sunday’s closing night. Joined by his Chrome Hearts band, Young will return to Worthy Farm in Somerset, south west England for the second time following his last headline set at the site in 2009.
Loyle Carner, The Prodigy, and five-time BRIT winner Charli XCX are all set to close out proceedings on The Other Stage across the weekend (June 25-29).
Other newly-confirmed acts include Doechii, Alanis Morissette, Tate McRae, Father John Misty, Ezra Collective, Lola Young, RAYE, Noah Kahan, Biffy Clyro, Gracie Abrams and Wolf Alice. See the full lineup below.
Rod Stewart, meanwhile, will perform in the coveted legends slot on the Sunday (June 29), having shared the news last November. The 79-year-old previously appeared at the festival as a headliner in 2002, joining Coldplay and Stereophonics as bill-toppers that year.
Tickets for Glastonbury 2025 went on sale in November and were snapped up by punters in under an hour following the introduction of a new online queuing system. A resale traditionally takes place in early April, which includes unpaid, or unwanted, tickets from people who have canceled their purchase. More details of this year’s resale are expected to arrive soon.
The 1975 have previously appeared twice at Glastonbury, with an early afternoon slot on the Pyramid Stage in 2014 and then gracing The Other Stage two years later. Their headline booking arrives ahead of rumoured new music, with frontman Matty Healy having told fans last February that a record was in the works.
Fans believed that Rodrigo would be one of the headliners due to her forthcoming U.K. touring commitments aligning – including a huge show at BST Hyde Park in London and two rescheduled Manchester gigs – with this year’s festival. The singer made her Glastonbury debut in 2022, where she was joined on stage by Lily Allen for a sprightly rendition of “F–ck You.”
Canadian rocker Young announced in January that he would be headlining Glastonbury, just days after he said that he would withdraw from the festival and called it a “corporate turn-off.” At the time, Young did not expand on the reversal of his decision, instead posting a brief statement to his website.
“Due to an error in the information received, I had decided to not play the Glastonbury festival, which I have always loved,” it read. “Happily, the festival is now back on our itinerary and we look forward to playing! Hope to see you there!”
Last year, Glastonbury was headlined by Dua Lipa, SZA and Coldplay. The latter became the first act to top the bill five times, following headline performances in 2002, 2005, 2011 and 2016.
