Charli XCX might be headlining The Other Stage rather than the Pyramid but make no mistake, as the biggest British artist on the planet right now, she's Glastonbury 2025's star attraction.
You can watch Charli XCX at Glastonbury live streams from anywhere with a VPN and for FREE.
Charli XCX's Glastonbury 2025 set takes place on Saturday, June 28.► Start time: 10:30 p.m. BST / 5:30 p.m. ET / 2:30 p.m. PT / 7:30 a.m. AEST (Sun.)• FREE STREAM — BBC iPlayer (U.K.)• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free
The timing of Brat's release led to the extraordinary sight of the hottest artist at last year's festival being confined to the tiny Levels stage. One year on, we can't believe she isn't right at the top of the billing. The BBC is believed to have had a major say in the decision, though a dispute between the broadcaster and Neil Young — whose headline set takes place at the same time — means it's ended up having to televise Charli XCX after all, instead of the folk legend. It's a mess worthy of Brat.
Again, timing prevented Brat from really taking Glastonbury by storm last year. While Charli XCX busted out a handful of tracks from the album, including "Von Dutch" and "Talk Talk", mega-hits "Apple", "360" and "Sympathy Is a Knife" were held in reserve.
The electrop phenomenon's setlist is, of course, being kept under wraps, but her recent performances suggest she'll draw mainly from her newer material. However, 2012 banger "I Love It" remains her signature closer.
Strap in for a slime green all-out assault on the senses. Below are all the details you need to watch Charli XCX and live stream Glastonbury 2025 for FREE and from anywhere.
Charli XCX's set is one of only a select few that will be televised live. It will be shown on free-to-air BBC One, with dedicated coverage beginning at 10:30 p.m. BST.
However, we'd recommend tuning in on BBC iPlayer instead, as the platform will be live streaming all of the build-up, including Deftones' warmup set. As well as laptops, the service also has apps for smartphones, tablets and a wide range of streaming devices.
Traveling abroad right now? You can use a VPN to watch Charli XCX at Glastonbury 2025 as if you were back home. NordVPN is our top pick of the options and we'll show you how to access it below.
