I’d not rule out headlining a stage like JP. If The Streets and other equally big ish bands can then Sam Fender can certainly do it Firstly, the worda came out to shit in that post. Secondly, I don't remember The Streets your but I think Sam's is still bigger?, might be wrong. Other sub sounds about right, get the attention without losing it to a headliner but JP I'd put money on it that he won't be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightoffyour Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 I'm still going to believe Swift is headlining until they've packed The Park away on Sunday night and she hasn't popped out for a secret Folkmore set. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’ll be loitering near the Cider Bus by then, trying to catch a glimpse of who will be headlining next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 (edited) Don't doubt @eFestivals sources or his confidence in them. After all we're all able to remember the occasional clanger which shows how seldom they are incorrect compared to the majority which turn out to be spot on. Having said that, the twin news of the Kenny omission from that Friday announcement and the, seemingly imminent, announcement of Springsteen for Mad Cool has given me a bit of a wobble. It suddenly occurred to me this morning that the festival made specific reference to Billie's age in the official announcement. Maybe a way to offset the fact they'd booked two old codgers for the other days? Head says we'll still end up with Billie/Macca/Kenny but can't shake the feeling there's a swerve around the corner.

Matt42 Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 (edited) I also want to believe it is Billie, Macca, Kendrick but if we didn’t have efests info I wouldn’t even be thinking of Kendrick as a possibility right now. It seems like a lot of festivals waited for Kendrick and held a slot for him but nothing was firmed up. It may be that Glasto was doing the same but he didn’t put anything into place. Then again this looks to be weirdly unpredictable and Kendrick might just appear on the lineup. Although there are less and less EU festivals for him to fit into now.

kalifire Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Can’t see Adele headlining at all. There’s more chance Taylor would keep the booking, imo. I guess we just go with Neil’s info, and I’d hate to say he might be wrong, because sorry seems to be the hardest word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Given the other potential options this year there's no chance the festival would go back to the Adele-well so soon. She might well be back in the frame when she releases album 33 1/3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She might well be back in the frame when she releases album 33 1/3. If hypothetically they have sat waiting for Kendrick and it’s not materialising, it may be too late to pick up the phone and try and rope someone in like Springsteen or Elton, they may have to phone a friend. If Kendrick, Springsteen, Elton, Taylor, Coldplay etc are all tied up they have to look wide at their options. I am confident Adele will return at some point, mainly because she always mentions the festival and the way Emily speaks about her she’s probably someone Emily would like to keep in her back pocket. considering Adele is being coy about whether she has put together a proper tour, I think her agreeing to something about now that fits would probably work for her. I wouldn’t count her out if Kendrick doesn’t materialise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
