Glastonbury 2017: ‘Well sourced information’ points to three huge headliners

Next year's festival will run from June 21-25

Reports are suggesting that Radiohead, Daft Punk and The Stone Roses will headline next year’s Glastonbury Festival.

Glastonbury Festival 2017 will run from June 21-25. Radiohead are among the favourites to top the Pyramid Stage next year, as are The Stone Roses, Guns N’ Roses and Kasabian. Daft Punk have also been rumoured along with Lady Gaga.

Festivals website eFestivals has now released a statement allegedly citing “well-sourced information”, suggesting that these will be the three acts to top the Pyramid Stage in 2017.

The statement reads: “eFestivals currently believes that next year Radiohead will be given that opportunity to headline on Saturday. We also strongly believe The Stone Roses are the front runners to top the bill on Sunday, and while we are less certain on the third headlining act, we have had what should be well-sourced information several months ago, that it’s supposedly Daft Punk topping the bill on the Friday.”

It is worth noting that the website has been correct in predicting the Glastonbury headliners in the past, notably reporting early that Metallica and Kasabian would headline in 2014.

NME has asked Glastonbury Festival for a comment on the reports.

Radiohead member Ed O’Brien recently commented on reports that his band would headline next year’s Worthy Farm event, saying: “I would love to. I go to Glastonbury every year, it’s my carnival. To be asked to play at Glastonbury again would be magic. I also think Glastonbury is like our spiritual home. It is the mother of all festivals… there’s nothing like that one… It would be great to play there.”
