“I was at a party last week and someone told me that headliners were AM, GnR and Taylor…obvs Taylor isn’t right but interesting they also mentioned GnR. Worth pointing out this a music industry thing, not just a Halloween party.”

This is what he said.

Is that it?! People here are acting like the bloke had solid insider info. 'Someone at a party said...' isn't a great source at the best of times, even less so when a third of their prediction is proven to be wrong.

AM / Elton / Eminem

So yeah, I’ve heard from two different places that AM are in.

I’ve also heard from two different places that GnR are in but with two contradicting scenarios…one where they replaced Taylor, another where Taylor was the third headliner. 

From the first source, the trio was AM, GNR and Elton. Second source = AM, GNR and Taylor.

we all know now Taylor looks like she is out so it definitely leaves the 3rd one up for grabs OR Elton is in for the Sunday.

I agree with a lot of people here that glasto not having a female headliner is odd but equally, they can only book what is available PLUS Emily’s comments saying some years they will have 3 ‘’male’ headliners could point towards the first set of pyramid toppers. 

if the 3rd isn’t Reg, then I expect Rihanna, Beyoncé or Flo. I haven’t heard anything on this though. All I’ve been told is Beyoncé is starting her stadium dates in May next year which (to me) puts her out of the picture. 

Disclaimer: Literally just passing on what I heard. I’m not claiming to be 100% in the know. But these rumours came from very good sources. 

Cheers for the info.

I'm going too with the scenario that AM are in which we know, GNR are in but not replacing Taylor and the 3rd is open.

While it may be 3 males, I don't think it's going to be Elton.

I'd take Florence as the 3rd.

my final prediction before ticket day is

AM

It won't be Rhianna and Eminem, they've been there and done that back when it was. That really is a case of ideas run out

did you hear that it's AM friday, GnR saturday then? Or could GnR be Sunday and the mystery headliner on the Saturday? Just wondering about scheduling

He’s had solid info in the past which is why we’re prone to believing him this time - he’s not just some rando who’s popped up with info that we’re all latching on to.

Changed my mind already from my earlier prediction and am going with:

Arctic Monkeys

Rihanna

Guns N Roses

Gonna go ahead and assume Elton moved that Paris date to accommodate his to-be-announced BST date and he’s avoiding the fest until the end.

Head says he's doing BST, heart says Glasto. 

So yeah it'll probably be the former!!

Why would Elton be at BST? He did that earlier this year... Or did I miss something?

Because it sold out instantly this year and it’ll be peoples last chance to ever see him so they may well have just booked him again for one last instant sell out. People with usually good info have said he’s doing it, so guess we shall see.

    • 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
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • 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. 🙂
