Haha yes - but it means it has to be by the end of next week (for Arcadia at least)...

[JoeyT]

So anything this afternoon then? Or tomorrow for the Glade going to be the next one?

[highviolet]

So probably one of the smaller stages per day or thereabouts leading up to the full reveal end of next week then.

[Gucci Piggy]

Beat Hotel and Glade tomorrow, I reckon.

[JoeyT]

I think the beat hotel wasn't announced until quite late was it last year?

I may be wrong though.

[WS_Jack_III]

Arcadia announced their line up about 3 days before the festival one year.

Not sure, but they said yesterday their lineup was coming very soon, didn't they?

[JoeyT]

Just checked and they announced on May 22nd as well last year.

Hmm roll on tomorrow...

Edit: In fact they even tweeted on the Monday that the line up would be announced that week. No such luck this year

That's in line with the info I heard about when the full lineup will be announced. A13's messing about prompted me to text a pal yesterday to check. Mind you, I know a lot of people who are connected with the festival one way or another and the info they send my way is usually vague at best - most likely because they don't actually know for sure.

[Hugh Jass]

Another feckin Tweet... Need to stop getting so excited, like Pavlov's Dog whenever the phone buzzes.

[big__phil]

I'm still keen for Team Thursday. Not sure what, but something. It was declared in a calm confidence before all of yesterday's fun and games.

Plus it's payday tomorrow, and good things always happen on payday.

I get the impression (from my 'I attend the festival and speculate' point of view) that maybe they don't have any set rules for what time of year they realise the line-up. It all seems very easy going in terms of that sense - take it as it comes, release the news when we like. They have sold out the festival - people are going to Worthy Farm at the end of June. Maybe they have bigger fish to fry than giving us the line up?

When do the programs go to print? A couple of days before the event?

Summed it up pretty nice there yep, as for the programs I think maybe a week or so before they release the program as a pdf to download

Glade just tweeted this:

@GladeAreaGlasto: Working on presenting you our line up for next week... It's HUGE!!! #Glasto15

I'm not saying it's the be all and end of from the bands point of view, and I'm sure they're just happy to be booked to be playing, but if I were a smaller band I'd certainly went my name out there, as it's the biggest and most famous festival in the world.

I am not sure Glastonbury is the biggest festival, and I'd say almost certainly that Coachella is more famous. Don't get me wrong, I think that is a disgrace - but it's most probably true.

Glastonbury is the most prestigious, yes.

[Bobinup]

In a debate about whether or not things were still being booked recently some mofo said the programs had been sent to the printers already.

EDIT: That was a response to shffieldlady.
