Sounds like a hoot. Lineup filling up nicely now. And if we get half of the heavily rumoured acts and acts touring around the time we're in for a cracking festival of music.

The headliner thread genuinely makes me sad. Especially considering theres only one more headliner to be announced.

47SOUL who take "the street music of Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and the Palestinian territories .... into the future with analogue synthesizers and electronic beats, and hyped verses from the four singers."

Thank you, I love world music and this is a new find for me, along with Songhoy Blues the presumed WH line up is looking good already.

Some of my favourite music memories of the festival have been world music acts, in my best ever list over the years Balkan Beat Box, and Ilham Al Madfai (From Iraq) on WH, and Oi Va Voi (With KT Tunstall) at the Avalon. Sweet!

I meanare they sure they're playing WOMAD? - the quote says WOMAD in June

They're on the official line up so I guess so. It says "booked for UK festivals Womad and Glastonbury in June 2015". So could read that 2 ways.

I'm sure i saw Gretchen in 2013 in a sparsly filled Accoustic Tent. She was great,Just what was needed for this tired and battered body on the Sunday afternoon

I was at that. Drinking whisky down the back. Pretty empty alright.

Christy Moore. Friday night Acoustic headliner?

Talked to a guitarist from Wolf Alice yesterday after their Rescue Rooms gig about playing Glastonbury and he said "I don't know - we can't say anything yet." I'm taking that as "yes, but we can't confirm it yet" because if they weren't playing, surely he'd just say no?

There's an extremely convenient gap in their touring schedule too.

My logic is undeniable.

That's good news, was annoyed to miss them last year.

      Primavera Sound 2026

      By pipan · Posted

      TOP 10 acts (top 5 in bold😞   Blood Orange (ciutat)   Guitarricadelafuente   Oklou - Looks like I'm capable of enjoying music in the rain after all, just not the whole night.   Rilo Kiley   The Cure   Jade   Depresión Sonora   Gelli Haha (Parc del Forum) - Her music never really clicked with me. Until I saw her live.   MARINA   Six Sex (ciutat) - I was shocked how supersmall the venue was and that almost everyone (except for me) knew every word of every song (including the ones that were released this weekend!).   Honorable mention:   Ashnikko - missed the first 15 minutes (because of Gelli Haha) and I'm not really a fan of her music, but the show was an absolute blast.

      Totally agree about PinkPantheress stage choice. 'Luckily' for me, one of my main targets, fakemink, was absolutely awful, meaning that I left early and was in a surprisingly good spot at Cupra before it got totally packed.

      Primavera Sound 2026

      By pipan · Posted

      As many said before, not my favourite Primavera. sh*tty weather is something I'm not really used to when enjoying music. Poor communication (more than 1 hour long radio silence during the worst rain) didn't help, but the main problem was me. I decided to leave the venue after things seemed to be getting back to normal. Massive Attack were supposed to play again (with Hymn of the Big Wheel back on the setlist!) as were all other artists on the smaller stages (including Fcukers with one my favourite albums of the year). FOMO was at an all-time high. However, after 4 hours in the rain, I had to admit to myself that I'm not cut out for this. I wasn't even that soaked (water-proof jacket worked). I was just fed up with the rain, wind and cold and wasn't able to enjoy music anymore.   Also, they should stop ignoring the growth of some artists between signing them up and their actual performance. Both PinkPantheress and Ninajirachi sets were ruined for me by completely inadequate stage choice.   However, I felt very much the same way after the 2022 edition and have thoroughly enjoyed all subsequent editions. So I'm still buying early bird tickets for 2027 and hoping this was a hiccup not the start of a downward trend.

      I will definitely be buying a 2027 early bird pass, partially because of the priority reservation privileges for the Ciutat sets. Hopefully the organization will take action to improve upon this year's failings. Because I thought the free water options and sound quality were an improvement over last year, so clearly they can actually implement positive changes.   I also hope all the douchebag chompers get in the sea, cause I was more bothered by them than in the past few years.   Highlights: The Cure, Ninajirachi, Knocked Loose, Current 93, Blood Orange.
