The BBC have revealed that Muse have now confirmed themselves as Saturday headliners for Glastonbury Festival.

The BBC confirm that Muse will be headlining Glastonbury Festival in an article (here), confirming what eFestivals reported some months ago that Matt Bellamy and co. would be appearing.

The article says that, "Stadium rockers Muse will top the bill on the main Pyramid Stage on Saturday 26 June, with Motown legend (Stevie) Wonder closing the event the following night."

Muse last headlined the event in 2004 and singer Matt Bellamy told BBC News the event was "very special".

"When you go out to the countryside and look at some cows and breathe in some fresh air and watch some good music, I think everyone connects with something which has been missing from city life," he said.

There has still been no official confirmation from Glastonbury Festival about the headliners for this summer's event.

Tickets have sold out for this year's Glastonbury Festival which runs for five full days from Wednesday 23rd until Sunday 27th June 2010 across over a 1,000 acres of beautiful countryside at Worthy Farm, Somerset. eFestivals believes the next sale of tickets will be sometime from the beginning of March, we will of course keep you updated of any news in the meantime.

Only headliners U2, and Jack Johnson, plus breaking talent My Luminaire, and John E Vistic are confirmed for the Festival. eFestivals will bring you the very best-sourced rumours between now and the official line-up announcement at the end of May/beginning of June, allowing festival-goers to see who is playing long before the bands are formally announced - keep your eyes on the Glastonbury 2010 rumours, updated as we receive information.
