BBC Introducing is almost always Slaves.

I think they may utilise the Sunday afternoon secret slot after 2017's Killers set, as it splits the crowds up a bit when it's on against the legend.

Blur were previously mentioned, but we could maybe see Gorillaz? They were rumoured to play a set in 2017. Damon will already be there, there is a possibility that some of the live band could be there as YOTA (They surely have connections), and there are already a few Gorillaz collaborators confirmed to be at the festival.

BBC intro secret sets were Blossoms in 2017 and Catfish and the Bottlemen In 2016. I can see Gerry Cinnamon doing a secret set in there

Ah no sorry mate, no Doves info, i'm just saying that I was surprised that them or Foals weren't on the first poster.

Sadly, one of the band members has posted on Insta that they aren't playing at Glasto.

Gutted! Still plenty of chances to see them elsewhere this summer but a glasto set would've been perfect.

Liking the sound of this! Where is the stage and when do we find out who’s playing/the times they’re playing? (I’m a first timer)

It’s in Silver Hayes (the dance village).  They normally have a chalk board outside saying the words ‘special guests’.  Closer to the time they then add the name.  Normally you can find out on twitter or the secret glasto account.

Found out that Blossoms were on in BBC Intro tent about 40 mins before in 2017 and we were at Williams Green eating pizza! That was a tough one to get to, speed march across the Pyramid field while Kris Kristofferson failed to hold a note

Christ Kris Krostofferson..... one of the worst things I’ve ever ever seen!! (And I saw Kate Nash on the Other stage in 2010.... so that’s saying something)

Slaves also did them on the Sunday in both 2015 and 2017.

Those extolling the virtues of secret shows would do well to remember that Friday at the Other Stage, 2014; when a fevered crowds expectations were audibly quashed with a drop of a curtain reading the fateful words, 'Kaiser Chiefs'.

It's said the groans that day could be heard for miles.

on the Sunday of 2016 i was chilling in the acoustic bar when a sure fire tip came in that Prince was about to play John Peel tent - needless to say we reorganised our internal organs to get there only to hear the Kooks wafting over the long drops. disappointment could have been bottled...(despite asmiring the kooks but hey?..)

Think I’d have ran if he played a secret set two months after he died ?

With you all the way. They have totally nailed that whole Blossoms vibe. No-one else does music exactly like they do it.

Although tbh I have to admit to not being a massive fan, I always preferred their best friend, Sixes.

    • 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
