Coldplay confirmed to headline Sunday at Glastonbury Festival

Glastonbury Festival 2016 headliners Coldplay join the only other act announced - Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra on the bill on the Pyramid stage on the final day of the festival.

Coldplay are the first headline act to be confirmed and are the first act to headline the Festival on four occasions, following previous Pyramid Stage headline appearances in 2002, 2005 and 2011. The Glastonbury performance will be Coldplay’s only festival show of this year’s A Head Full Of Dreams Tour.

Tickets for this year have sold out. For those still hoping to get tickets, there is good news. There will be a re-sale in Spring, but the number of tickets will, as expected be limited. 

Car park passes priced at £35 will be available when paying the ticket balance in April. It is not possible to book Car Park tickets until the balance for at least one of the tickets on the booking has been paid.

The dates for the 2016 Festival will be from Wednesday 22nd to Sunday 26th June. Expect something like 2,000 performances at over 100 venues including music, cabaret, theatre, circus, a fantastic Kidz area, poetry, green crafts and information, site art, decor, and loads, loads more ... much more than just the music, so make sure you check it all out!
