Yeah, I'm super disappointed to miss the Manchester show. That will be one helluva gig.

Also the rumoured date range bisects Bearded Theory and if they headline that I don't know, nationality aside, if the optics would be good for them to also be top choice for a festival that's 10-15,000 capacity bigger.

 

I do wonder though if the possibility of getting both them and Overmono (who grew up 25 miles from the site and headlined West Holts stage this year) to headline, and also maybe Cate Le Bon subbing, might be put forward as proof after a rocky couple of years that GM is a key ambassador for Welsh culture. It could also allow them to "get away" with a couple of potentially lesser name headliners if the big fish aren't available in late summer 2026.

 

Overmono would be an incredible headliner if they're on the circuit next summer. They've got the potential to explode if their next album's as good as their first. I really hope we get some new material soon!

Hard to predict who is gonna headline until we can see who is at Parades De Coura, Oya, Way out West etc.

 

It’s probably too soon with how prominent her slot was this year but they could strike while the iron is hot (and whilst she’s still within their price budget) and have CMAT back as a headliner?

Amyl and Sniffers are announced for Oya today. I think they are about right to headline although they didn’t play too long ago. Depends if the bookers think they might be out of reach in the future.

Given her comments about the festival, I think she'd agree to to do whenever her next album comes out, regardless of how much she costs by then.

What I meant is that I can’t make it to The Cure show in Manc and Edinburgh due to the clash with GM, not that I hoped they would headline the Mountain Stage (it won’t happen like you say), the same as Sebwax posted.

Would love this, they were wasted on the main stage Sunday afternoon at Reading this year.

Geese are playing Scotland 26th August so 3 days after the festival … but they’re also playing London 1st of September so could be more likely for End of the Road?

Praying theyre at GM but those dates are dubious.

 

Just got tickets to see them in Manchester early next year. New album is amazing

Yeah really enjoying it, especially that Taxes song.

Would LOVE Geese! They played EOTR in 2023, had that last album on repeat for about 4 months, they'd be a hell of a booking.

Overmono will definitely be headlining next summer

Info, or guess?

[OddRon]

Lambrini Girls at Oya, might be too soon since their last appearance in 2024.

I got all the way through to verifying payment via text message through bank, to then get ‘problem processing your payment’ page. I’ve called customer services number & left message but not holding out hope.

Gutted!

Had a really cool turn of events yesterday. The TicketSellers followed up the message I left from the day of the sale & asked for details of what happened, and once I’d described the issue they gave me a link to purchase the tickets I needed!

Delighted to be returning after missing out this year! However, in the time since the sale I decided to get an EOTR ticket, so I now am potentially doing the double header. My wife will not be happy! 

[Stillill42]

National Express tickets on sale already! 

[SweepingTheNation]

Looks like we're about to get an announcement for Outbreak at All Points East on the Sunday of GM, and there's a couple of bands rumoured for high up the undercard (one of whom has already been mentioned) who could easily headline GM.

[OddRon]

Would love Amyl to headline, their slot at Reading this year was an awful decision, just before Trippie Red and during the day.

Have Amyl played quite recently? Would love to see them but as I understand GM are a bit wary of booking big name bands who have been on in recent years!

 

What do you people think the likelihood of Jamiroquai playing might be? Looks like they’ve got a few European festivals on and a short tour this year, feels like a perfect fit with no Glastonbury either

Can't ever see them at GM but would be decent for Latitude.

They played the main stage in 2023 so quite recently. Pretty sure they are on just before the headliners that year.

is pinkpantheress too big to play GM? (i’m going to consider her ‘dance/electronic’y enough to fit GM’s normal bookings)

Even if she isn't I don't think anyone at her end is going to approach GM. The only artist I can see doing both Lorde APE and GM is ML Buch.

just wishful thinking on my end. The APE line ups are a weird mix of artists this year
