A huge British pop rock band is set to headline Glastonbury 2025's Friday night slot The 1975, which consists of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Matthew Healy, lead guitarist Adam Hann, bassist Ross MacDonald, and drummer George Daniel, are hoping to headline Glastonbury in 2025 Matty, Ross, Adam and George, have never headlined Glastonbury before but have played there three times before on different stages. MailOnline have contacted The 1975's representatives for a comment.
The five-day festival takes place in June at Somerset's Worth Farm and draws in around around 200,000 music fans each year to watch some of the world's biggest musicians perform. The official Glastonbury tickets went on sale on November 14 and November 17. The stakes were even higher than usual, as 2026 will be a fallow year, meaning the festival will not go ahead.
The event periodically takes a fallow year roughly every five years in order to allow the farm land on which it takes place to fully recover. Harry Styles is also being eyed by Glastonbury bosses to headline next year's festival, as he makes a sensational return to live music. The former One Direction star, 30, shocked fans back in July when he appeared on stage as a guest at Stevie Nicks' BST performance in Hyde Park.

A source told the publication: 'Harry would be the perfect Glastonbury headliner and Emily has long wanted him on stage at Worthy Farm, but the dates have never quite worked out.
' Harry was previously busy completing his 173 date Love on Tour show. The world tour began in September 2021 and ended in July 2023, spanning 22 months, and Harry since has receded from the limelight. However it seems he could now have a free June for Glastonbury as he continues to work on his fourth album.
They added: 'Harry would be an incredible act to watch on the Pyramid Stage. Glastonbury has a fallow year in 2026, so booking Harry for next year would be perfect. 'It is something the team at Glastonbury are pushing for.
Whether that dream will come true, however, is still to be decided by Harry's team.' Ed Sheeran has also been tipped to perform at Glastonbury 2025.

A source told The Sun on Sunday: 'Ed adores performing at Glastonbury and getting to sing to so many fans on a massive scale. 'He hasn't got any big UK gigs lined up next summer, so this would be really special.' The insider also teased that because the Shape Of You hitmaker has so many celebrity pals, there is bound to be some special duets on stage in late June.
The source added: 'He's got loads of celebrity friends, so he is bound to have some famous collabs on stage with him if it comes off.' The Thinking Out Loud singer last hit the famous stage eight years ago, where he headlined the Pyramid Stage and performed tracks such as Castle on the Hill and Lego House. At the time, he headlined alongside Radiohead and Foo Fighters but joked he was a bit 'out of place' in the lineup.
He told the BBC: 'I’m definitely the one that’s out of place on that list. But I think that's an exciting thing!' Share or comment on this article: Glastonbury 2025 lineup: Huge British pop rock band 'set to headline Friday night slot' e-mail Add comment.
