This is a random one but can anyone imagine Latitude pulling off Daft Punk? People can laugh but the last fests they did was only 35k in Rock Ness, which is now the size of Latitude. And whatever Hyde Park was at Wireless then, Just to piint out too, they were not the main headliner at Rock Ness but were at Hyde Park.

Elbow

Bon Iver

Daft Punk

It would be a Daft Punk thing too and be totally out the blue as an announcement on Monday

To be honest... I hope not.

They'll take up an undeserved high slot. Their set in '09 had the smallest Mainstage crowd i've ever seen. They were good, but the crowd was only a few rows thick. They were too high that year

Argh, today's news has frustrated me. I thought we finally had our set of headliners yesterday with Blur as an SR, then when Neil said it wasn't them I was convinced it was Green Day, only for Neil to confirm that they were out of the running too. Back to square one!

This may be a very long shot as it was only three years ago and they weren't very good, but Foo Fighters headlined in both 2002 and 2005, and this band will sell tickets...what about Kings Of Leon?

    • New Overmono album is... just good for me. Had high hopes which were later dashed a bit after listening to some of the singles but they brought me back around enough to appreciate some very nice work in there. https://music.apple.com/ie/album/pure-devotion/1894298100
    • I don't really worry about headliners (unless there's a real possibility of a once-in-a-lifetime artist landing for it) but I'm starting to feel a bit cold on the names floating around bar Fontaines.  Harry Styles and Sam Fender, I can see the value and commercially speaking, they've earned it.  Sabrina Carpenter is obviously popular enough to do it - but after she's headlined everywhere else and done Coachella earlier this year, is it not just a bit predictable to follow what other festivals have done?
    • Bollocks to “safe” headliners, bollocks to the masses. Get interesting, get risky, challenge people.
    • The Cure would be a dream, I can definitely see them doing a second run of festivals they may have missed this year and they seem the definitive Latitude act  If they do festivals next year maybe The Strokes could be a shout? Im stunned either them or Kings of Leon haven't played yet This is a great shout for names, youre right that CMAT is taking a year out though - we're like to know more in the autumn when festivals start making announcements  The only other act I'd really love to see is Idles headline the tent
