whoever suggested Radiohead for Latitude..

that would be amazing, but isn't that pretty unlikely? i mean, aren't they almost TOO big to play that festival? Looking at the size of previous headliners, i think it's very unlikely. However, I think they would fit very nicely into that festival..hmm, we can dream.

i didnt know they were a rumour for T though, how long has that been circulating for?

To the people saying this is a weak set of headliners, it's stronger than past years, such as:

2006 - Arctics are bigger than Franz were in '06, KOL are probably at the same height of fame as Muse - Headlined Glasto, played arenas, 2nd headlined prior to headlining Reading, Green Day are obviously bigger than Pearl Jam.

2004 - Arctics bigger than The Darkness, KOL bigger than White Stripes, Green Day currently bigger than they were when they headlined in 2004.

2002 - Arctics about as big as The Strokes, Foos in 2002 weren't yet the stadium-conquering giants they are today whereas KOL are well on their way, Green Day obviously aren't considered more legendary than GNR but certainly bigger than The Prodigy.

but Green Day are not headlining from what I've heard.

It's clear from what the Daily Star printed that their info is quite old, so I guess that's why they think GD are a headliner.

I could of course be wrong about GD, but I'll be very surprised if I am.

If lostprophets are shifted up one which i cant see it'd be bad as download had to do that.

Iron Maiden - Would they have a reason to

Muse - Can't see it, getting ready to record and time off.

Faithless - defo more V

Radiohead - The much wanted one that i can't see happening

Green day - Would make sense for the USA 1st and nothing is concrete on a july tour isit?

Linkin Park - Would be awesome to see and did headline download 2 years ago and would fit easily with most 2nd headliners.

Pearl jam - Can't see it

The Strokes - Not a sunday band and nor are the others by a mile.

Franz - Not sunday and wont be after they only supporting The Cure

My Chemical Romance - Not doing anything at mo

Kaisers - Just like Franz and not big enough

Foos - Taking a break

The White Stripes - Saturday only really

System Of A Down - Serj not with them at mo and they'd play 2nd

Blur - Obvs not

The Prodigy - Would they headline Friday IOW and still play, I can't remember it happening

Blink 182 - Don't think so, not yet

Stereophonics, not for this day and defo not big enough to headline reading now

The Stone Roses - A lot have reported them not being good in 1996

Sound garden - Would 2nd headline?

Any others i'v not mentioned who potentially could?

Who's actually reaslistically possible from them. The enter shikari mamanger has basically said they're playing reading and has said arctics, kol n green day are not the headliners

Is it almost dead cert for arctics and kol - cuz they on isle too

V i can see kasabian and faithless headlining or coldplay in there with blur.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
