I just checked last year's rollout; they updated their Facebook profile picture on October 22, and the lineup was released on October 24. So I think it might be sooner than we think.

The earlier lineup announcements has always worked for them from a marketing perspective so I can see them wanting to do it earlier to get ahead of other festivals.

 

I've noticed the past couple of years there's a bit of an implied psychology from a fan point of view that many of them are exclusives when they're not - even Chappell ended up doing a bunch more shows across Europe, and there was absolutely loads of chances to see Charli. But getting in first really benefits PS because fans panic buy.

Beginning of October I reckon. Which would rule out Radiohead, as otherwise they would hold on for them.

Why would it rule out Radiohead,  it could be that Radiohead want to announce their 2026 plans on a certain date. 

Could just be announcement for Radiohead only

I don't understand what problem there would be in announcing Radiohead if the entire current tour is sold out (and it seems like it)

I'd rather have the full lineup in October (or even September!) without Radiohead than in January with Radiohead.

 

In 2018, we had to wait for the line-up til the end of January because of Arctic Monkeys and I didn't like that at all.

The complete opposite for me. Give me the best lineup possible, when you announce it is less important

Well Radiohead aren't doing festivals anyway so it won't matter!

I wonder is that a clue? Wish by The Cure came out in 1992 😄

I'm thinking it's just because 26 kinda looks like 92 upside down so it works pretty well, maybe they were thinking about doing something Olympics inspired for a while and just waited for this year.

 

That could also be an explanation for changing it so early if they already had it finished for a while. But I hope we still get the early line-up of course 😄

second part just came to mind

They're too big imo. They'd either announce them straight away or wait and release the poster in December or January.

Definitely. I just can't see Radiohead now announcing a tour in the next few weeks that spans June (in 9 months' time) and before they even start this first mini-tour - although I hope I'm wrong!

If my memory and notes are correct, for the last three years the lineup has been announced between two to eight days after the logo change on social media. Both the 2023 and 2024 lineups were dropped on a Tuesday  (2025 on a Thursday), maybe we can hope it could be out on September 23rd this year.

I would also guess Radiohead didn't work out, and that the festival arranged for alternate headliners at this point and might as well thus drop the full lineup.

I don't think Radiohead are playing but I doubt it panned out like this. More likely Radiohead were never booked and these headliners they have are ones they firmed up a long time ago.

    • 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
