Where will Chris Martin appear?

[Madyaker]

It's been 3 years he's definitely going to be there but the question is who's set will he shoehorn himself into? It'll be on Pyramid obviously. I'm betting McCartney or Diana Ross.

Frankly at this point I’m suspecting him to stick his head out of a long drop mid shit. 

[kemosabe]

100% Diana Ross. As a more rogue one potentially Billie as well. 

Lives under the pyramid stage in-between festivals does our Chris.

I started this because I knew you guys were looking forward to seeing him, maybe I should add a pole!

I’m gonna take a punt here … he won’t

Macca maybe. He can't be stinking up Diana Ross's set..

He won’t be there. His ego took a real blow last time when some people started crying that he dared to be invited to two prominent sets, like he should have said no to appease his haters. 

His band’s 2016 headline set was a Glastonbury classic and he stepped up to the plate in 2021 when the festival needed him. He gets a pass in my book.

[Splonk]

All hail Ed Sheeran.

The new middle-of-the-road celeb-musician that unecessarily pops up absolutely fucking everywhere for no reason.

[Madyaker]

Really? I never heard about that. That's actually kind of sad.

[rascalpete]

I heard a rumour it was going to be his face adorned on top of the pyramid this year

Yeah, he’s an easy target but ultimately he just loves the festival like we do. If I was in his position I’d want to play it as often as I could too. I get why he annoys people but him and his band popping up quite often has never really bothered me.

I dont think people get annoyed, at least the people at the festival don't. It's just funny. He's hardly the only one to play loads - Frank turner must of done like 10 sets last time and nobody gets annoyed about that. 

If I was him I'd lean into it, try and play as many cameo slots on different stages as possible in the weekend. Or play a few secret sets in random locations like random campsites, at the lock ups etc. and make a joke on social media about it.

Leave the Polish out of this - they're not big Coldplay fans at the best of times.

[marathonsteve]

I am sure the band will be there in some form or other. Hey maybe a secret set . That will surprise people. 

[Twiggy553]

As much as I want to dislike him, my mate used to run Crisis at Christmas in S.London and Chris would go down there every year for the setup, do whatever jobs he was told to do without question, and never used it a self-promotion opportunity.

Brilliant 

[elgatonegrofabricwardrobe]

I expect to see him getting mobbed at crossings while driving a Land Rover about.

[stuie]

I predict he’ll be there to enjoy the festival but won’t perform this year. He’ll have read the room and will sit this one out! 

[Beaver89]

He probably won't pop up. Not on a main stage anyway.

A thought though, is that secret set opening the Other stage still a thing? The band might turn up there for a 50+2 birthday special and 20+2 year anniversary nod of doing a similar slot before they got their boost to headliner.

[Spindles]

He'll be hanging from a tree as an art installation all weekend, just outside Shangri La.  Suspended like Peter Pan, in a costume of his own creation (which is just a T shirt with some scribbling on) he will smile amiably down on the punters as they pass by and occasionally be hoisted down for toilet and crumpet breaks.

[Hugh Jass II]

Didn’t he duet with Billie Eilish somewhere last year?
