Stevie Nicks isn't a headliner, legend suits her but probs too expensive.

 

Old school headliner could be Oasis if they need an oldie and I;m sure they'll ask the question.

I'd say those two plus... band.

 

And there's probably 3 (4, a push) who'd be in the running for that, realistically; though I could be forgetting someone.

They would have to pull someone pretty spectacular out of the bag to rescue that sh*t show. Can’t think of anyone who fits.

Taste innit, as ever. Oasis or Fontaines, and they'd have me hook line, and sinker.

 

Radiohead would be pretty special to some as well, though I dunno if they'd realistically be in the mix. Who knows at this point

One persons sh*t show is another persons dream headline set. I think most people would be extremely happy with those two headlining. If they got 3 headliners who you would want to headline I’m sure most people would have a big moan about it. Maybe accept the people who play the pyramid aren’t your cup of tea

No way! Then he couldn't do 5 of his attention seeking posts on the forum every day

To me Harry is like O Rod last year in the sense that early on there wasn't many substantiated rumours (it's a bit early for that anyway) but it just really makes sense and fits. He'll almost certainly be on the road in 2027 and the Rest is Entertainment podcast said his team want him to do it or words to that effect. Can't really see why the fest wouldn't want him as he's massive.

I may be wrong but I feel like Rodrigo news came relatively early last year.

 

Having said that, though, I couldn't tell you when, exactly. We're still just under 14 months out, that is a long time.

I'd say that the point that O Rod became more than just a rumour was October 2024 when she announced the rescheduled dates for her Manchester shows - she rescheduled what had originally been Friday and Saturday night shows for the Monday and Tuesday nights after Glastonbury. Obviously everyone saw just how suspicious the timing was. Not definitive of course but certainly far more to go on than we've currently got for anyone so far this year.

 

Prior to that it had mostly just been "she'd make sense" kind of rumours probably not much different than we're currently hearing regarding Mr Styles.

Yeah it's hard to remember exactly but it became nailed on for sure when she announced the rearranged Manchester dates as incident says above. She defo always made a lot of sense with her love of the fest and having played before. 

 

Next pointer this year will be Oasis announcing their 2027 tour assuming it comes in May as rumoured.

Would be elsewhere for Olivia Dean. I like her music but i have no desire to see her on the Pyramid. I don't think she has a great catalogue for a Pyramid headline show.

would bet a large amount of money it'll be styles + olivia dean / raye / carpenter / roan + oasis / fontaines / fender / radiohead - seems nicely balanced.

 

radiohead only possible if there's anything to these lp10 rumours...

13 months to go. Loads of time for us to get something along the way. 

 

Someone on the Reddit was claiming Olivia Dean as Grimshaw's hint but that could just be reaching.

Wouldn't surprise me, re Olivia Dean. She really has blown up.

 

I still feel like these Oasis dates will get the ball rolling, whether it's them or not.

 

a link here is that she presented an episode of the sidetracked podcast with him last year

I think it was Ed O'Brien saying they will be doing more shows from 2027 on, but 20 a year and on different continents each time or something like that. Certainly felt like their own shows and not much space for festivals.

Likes to get stuck right in on a session, so I'm told.

 

No relevance to a headline slot there, I just found it funny

Feel like Olivia would be the token less expensive act freeing up the fest to spend bigger on a different day. 

[wro_lap]

I can't escape the fact Olivia Dean has played every festival since covid, spanning 6 sets across 4 festivals. It would be a cool story for a "regular" to climb up to the headline slot, but I just can't see it happening, I feel like they'll have a year without her first.

Only one of those was a prominent slot on a main stage though, and by the time G27 roles around it will have been 3 years.  

 

Other than folk like us who obsess over this sort of thing noone will really care.

Fair point - I do think she and the festival will frame it more as a gradual climb through the ranks if it happens, and entirely fair enough.

My mate who gave me bit of info last year is still saying Harry Styles next year

Maybe because he hasn't got the tunes.

Harry, Oasis and Sabrina it's pointing to for me. The only thing that would swap Oasis out for Foos for me is if Oasis don't see themselves headlining somewhere with them two.

I can't imagine who's headlining other nights would bother them, in 2027. Who's subbing them, maybe.

 

The sticking point, if they are in the conversation, would be the fee.

 

I'll you who they (Noel in particular) would love to sub them - The Strokes. That's self combust territory for me, though, so I'll nip that pipe dream in the bud right now.

 

Given we're now under the assumption that Oasis will be announcing the tour stuff in October, I'm intruiged to see what info, if any, slips out. 5 months is a long time.

Duran Duran would probably be better than at least one of the headliners tbh
