The line-up itself is incredible for me, there as never been one that good in the history of festivals, even with 3 trash Pyramid headliners. Aesthetically, it's also lovely.

Joanna Newsom AND Sleater Kinney AND Kendrick Lamar AND LCD Soundsystem AND Sufjan Stevens, and I'm only scratching the surface. Get off my dick, fake line-up.

I concur. I counted 37 acts I would have gladly gone and watched from that poster. The clash potential would have been unbelievable.

people on Glasto Chat are getting more and more sure that this poster is real as each name announced is taken from it :D 

And still no New Order. I remain steadfast that they will play and I will get to drunkenly shout TUTTI FRUTTI.

So... never seen this before for Glastonbury but someone has made a fake poster!

What do we think? Clearly the repeats and big acts being billed quite low makes me think this is a little bit of a messy job.

Interesting to see a full on attempt of a lineup though

also hans zimmer and the darkness lol

(found on Glasto Chat)

PJ Harvey isn't centered properly. Really bugging me.

I think it's some sort of aesthetic choice rather than a mistake, the space between the two Zs is smaller than the space between the second Z and Top as well.

Fairly sure that was meant to be an obvious joke, not even looking for bites.

There was a smiley! Didn't you see the smiley? :D

All meant :) in good fun of course

No, it's too far to the right. Look where the Y in Harvey ends in comparison to the Os above and below it. I don't know why my brain notices these things...

Well i see James has self confirmed for Friday and they're not on the fake poster...... so can we confirm that this poster has no value and merely just got its credibility, if any from the 3 headliner predictions, which lets be honest everyone knew??

The Other Stage opener wouldn't be on any posters, so we can continue to believe the fake posters mythical ability to predict the future I reckon.

Dude, I know! I know!

And Shaddow is spelt wrong!!

And it should be Years & Years, but my natural aversion to ampersands got the better of me!!!

We can agree it's fake.  But no value? It has some value, at least in its ability to fool unwitting friends and sections of the larger internet community.  It made the North Devon Journal I'll have you know.

Except ....

If they were the secret Friday opener they wouldn't be on the poster. :P

      2027 Stage Predictions

      By wro_lap · Posted

      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

      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. 🙂
