No Jerry Cantrell. Is he really only going to play Lollapalooza Stockholm? He would have made a lot of sense here.

Cantrell is also headlining one of the stages at Hellfest

25th and 3rd someone has mentioned 

Surprised they’d do a second date on a Sunday. Thanks tho I’ve marked it in my calendar!

This has to be the latest BST shows have been announced. 
Personally I’m not convinced that The Stones will do two dates, and I also wonder if they would do BST Saturday 25th with Glasto the next day. 
I do think the reason for holding back is the Glastonbury announcement delay. Although do we know if the license application went through yet? 
 

So I’m going Stones and Kendrick for the final two shows.

Stones were announced in April last time.

They’re not even the latest. Arcade Fire were announced mid-May.

You learn something new every day!

since 2015 though all the shows have been announced long before this.

It did. They've had the ability to announce any further shows for about a month now.

Interesting. A reliable source told me they were announcing end of Jan, so I wonder why the delay.

Blur in 2015 was mid Feb so not much difference. 

 

Massive attack in 2016 was 7th March 

 

Barbra Streisand was 7th March in 2019

 

So stones on the 7th March this year?

I am very impressed by the research! (Or how much info you have retained!) 

good skills!

So does anyone know if it is definitely The Stones and just waiting on an announcement or is that just a best guess based on the fact someone on IORR said they were touring and the dates/ venue availability fit? 

[RaphPH]

I still think it's Macca and they are waiting for Glasto poster announcement along with his Euro tour to be announced

[SCG95]

So, potential for 2 extra shows TBA? 

If so, Sat 25th June and Sun 3rd July?

Def happening. Just who is the question. 
 

seems to be a debate between The Stones, Macca and Kendrick.

Strokes / Libertines, Sun 3rd July

Would give substance to their 'North of England' exclusive tag for Lytham festival....

Probably quite a good shout actually. 
Although there were a lot of issues for the Libs last time around and not sure the Royal Parks would be up for another raucous day! 

[Karlos12345]

It‘s definitely The Stones. IORR has been proven very reliable countless times.

But for two shows?

Don't see why not. They'll sell them easily, and with 7 days off in between, they can have their choice of a nice long rest or go earn another big payday elsewhere.

Same as in 2013. And they have a strict pattern of weekend show > mid week show > weekend show for a few years now. They don‘t do back-to-back gigs anymore. 3 days off at least. So 25th and 3rd makes sense. Anfield is another rumor. They could do it in between.

That fest staff post said “Rolling Stones day 1” before it was changed. 

[Brave Sir Robin]

25th and 3rd is correct. Which is great news for those of us who will be in a field on the 25th.

Was told there was potentially an Anfield date too, have you heard anything about that? 

Think whoever told me could possibly be getting confused with Macca, so not sure on it. 

[Gilgamesh69]

Cant see Libertines being there - aren't they already doing a bunch of their own park shows?

The dream would be The Stones subbed by The Strokes.

[jr1312]

Likely to be anfield show as well
