The moment every Glastonbury ticket holder has been waiting for is here – the full lineup has been revealed with speculation over mystery band Patchwork.
The festival has revealed the full 2025 stage lineup and timings after previously confirming the headline acts as Olivia Rodrigo, The 1975, and Neil Young with Rod Stewart taking the Legends slot on Sunday.
We’ve been drip-fed each stage lineup from Arcadia to West Holts but finally, the full timings for the artists have been revealed.
However, organisers wouldn’t give everything away and there’s still one major surprise in store as the Pyramid Stage boasts a huge ‘TBA’ on Friday at 5pm.
There is also another mystery on Saturday as an artist called ‘Patchwork’ will take the stage at 6.15pm – although a quick Google brings up no band of that name.
Speculation over surprise sets is always rife, with big names in the mix until the very last moment.
Famously The Foo Fighters were listed as The Churnups on the Pyramid Stage in 2023, meanwhile, Kasabian were last year’s TBA on Woodsies.
There’s plenty of huge touring artists who could steal the show with a secret set.
Robbie Williams has been cropping up in fan speculation as he is currently on tour and mysteriously posted a picture of himself at Worthy Farm in the 90s.
The Angels hitmaker, who last appeared at the festival in 1998, said on the podcast Robbie Williams Rewind, that he would ‘slaughter’ another performance at the iconic festival.
He said: ‘It’s one of those times and places, and a reimagination of what Robbie Williams is. When you do Glastonbury, perception changes more than any other festival.’
Sister trio Haim have also been eyed up for a slot as they are gearing up to release their new album I Quit and have been spotted in the UK repeatedly recently.
They have a gig on Friday, June 27, in Margate which rules the Relationships singers out for the Pyramid Stage TBA but not the Sunday gap on the Park Stage.
While speaking on Nick Grimshaw and Annie Mac’s podcast Sidetracked, they gushed about how fun Glastonbury is and how much they loved performing there over the years.
Adding to this, MrWayneyB on X shared: ‘A long-shot, but Patchwork is a German book written by Sylvia Haim.’
Who are Patchwork and other rumoured acts?
With 56 TBAs and the eyebrow-raising Patchwork on the schedule, fans have their detective hats on already.
So-called Patchwork, who don’t appear to be a real band, will take to the Pyramid Stage on Saturday at 6.15pm.
Here’s some of the most highly speculated Glastonbury surprise sets:
- Haim (frontrunner for the slot)
- Pulp
- Robbie Williams
- Green Day
- Sam Fender
- Lewis Capaldi
- Mumford and Sons
- Timothee Chalamet as Bob Dylan (in his patchwork jacket)
Other names like Green Day, Sam Fender, and the long begged for Pulp have all been mentioned as possible surprise acts.
However, Jarvis Cocker, 61, did say Pulp would only return in a ‘life-or-death situation’ but he’s likely to head to Stone Bridge pub for a DJ set.
Across the entire festival, there are 56 TBAs, including on the Pyramid, the Park, and Woodsies stages on Friday and Sunday respectively.
While most are likely to be smaller artists as they are on smaller stages it’s best to keep an eye on these slots just in case.
Weezer has also been moved from Woodsies to the Other Stage after some concern around overcrowding – a matter that Glastonbury Festival has recently addressed.
The Glastonbury App is back to help with finding any clashes as well as acting as a very helpful map while you’re at Worthy Farm.
Writing on X, the festival said: ‘We’ve just unveiled the full Glastonbury 2025 line-up featuring over 3,000 performances across dozens of stages at this year’s Festival.
‘This year’s Festival will begin with two opening ceremonies on the Wednesday night. In a world still challenged by global events, the traditional opening ceremony in the Green Fields’ Sacred Space in the King’s Meadow will see the Flame of Hope – which unites 15 sacred flames from around the world – honoured with a thousand voices who will unite in a powerful mantra for Peace to create a collective sense of unity, love, and purpose, culminating in the fireworks display at 10.45pm.
‘That same evening, the Pyramid Stage arena will welcome a stunning Theatre & Circus show for the first time since 1990. Look To The Skies will present a breath-taking aerial odyssey, with highwire walkers, acrobats and incredible circus performances. This unforgettable shared experience of energy, emotion and spectacle will be followed by the fireworks at 10.45pm.
‘The following day, Thursday, at 12:30pm, the Green Fields asks you to join them in the Sacred Space to create the Biggest Mantra for Peace ever seen at Glastonbury Festival – to demonstrate compassion and solidarity with those living in conflict and create a moment of reflection and celebration of peace, hope and unity.’
If you didn’t manage to snag tickets, the BBC’s coverage is returning with two weeks of Glastonbury takeover.
Lorna Clarke, BBC Director of Music says: ‘This year, we’re making it easier than ever for millions of music fans to access Glastonbury’s standout moments, whilst also giving them the freedom to explore the festival their way – Glastonbury is theirs and the BBC brings it to them.
‘I would like to thank Emily and Michael Eavis once again for allowing us this exclusive access to their very special creation, as only the BBC can bring the nation together to enjoy their beloved festival.’
