New Glastonbury map reveals big changes for 2025
The new Glastonbury 2025 map has been revealed, and here are the major changes you need to know about. Sleeping bags, tents and hunter wellies are at the ready as the biggest UK music festival is fast approaching. Ahead of the Worthy Farm festival, the headline acts have been announced with British pop band The 1975, folk rock star Neil Young and US pop singer Olivia Rodrigo all taking major spots in the lineup. The festival has now released the new maps for the festival, which show there are some subtle but important changes that show how the farm is mapped out for the event. The Other Stage capacity has been extended, meaning the crowd capacity will be much larger. Levels, the dance music area in Silver Hayes, which will host Groove Armada this year, has increased. As has the Dragonfly (previously known as Arcadia), the Glade, and Lonely Hearts Club. Camping-wise, there are some shrinking and others growing. Oxylers campsite has halved, South Park 2 has also shrunk as has Pennard Hill, and the indoor stage The Assembly which was introduced just last year. Shangri-La has introduced a new area, Dragon's Tail, which includes a bar. There is also now more public camping space in Pylon Ground, and two new toilet blocks at Park Hill. Glastonbury is set on Worthy Farm with a capacity of 210,000 festival-goers. The festival is around 900 to 1,000 acres, which is pretty massive and difficult to visualise. This is around the equivalent of 500 full-size football pitches, and at it's widest point it's around 1.5miles in length. The entire festival is surrounded by an 8 km perimeter fence. FRIDAY On Friday, headlining the festival is The 1975. Also performing that day is: Loyle Carter, Busta Rhymes, Biffy Clyro, Alanis Morissette, The Blossoms, CMAT, and Fatboy Slim, among many other names. SATURDAY Saturday will see Neil Young headline, with Charli XCX, Raye, Doechii, Ezra Collective, Deftones, Kneecap, Scissor Sisters, and the Kaiser Chiefs also performing. SUNDAY Sunday will see Olivia Rodrigo perform with Rod Stewart in the legends slot. Other acts performing that day include: Noah Kahan, Jorja Smith, The Libertines, Snow Patrol, and The Prodigy. The excitement for the festival is growing with Rod Stewart confirming that he will be joined by a special guest on stage, his former Faces bandmate Ronnie Wood. More Trending He was asked on That Peter Crouch Podcast whether he was in touch with other The Rolling Stones' members and 'other people in music'. Sir Rod replied: 'Not really. Woody (Wood) I do a lot, just recently, because we're going to do Glastonbury together. 'Elton, sometimes, you know, birthdays, but nowhere near how we used to, I think probably because he doesn't drink anymore, and Woody doesn't drink, and I still do. They stay away from me. Bad influence.' Got a story?

Rod Stewart, Ronnie Wood to reunite for Glastonbury set
Rod Stewart has confirmed he will reunite with his former Faces bandmate Ronnie Wood for his set at Glastonbury Festival. The 80-year-old singer is filling the coveted Legends slot at the music event, which is being headlined by British pop/rock band The 1975, Neil Young and US pop singer Olivia Rodrigo. Faces, who were known for hits including Stay With Me, formed in 1969 following the split of Small Faces.

"I was only supposed to play for an hour and a quarter, but I've asked them 'Please, another 15 minutes' because I play for over two hours every night and it's nothing, but yeah, looking forward to it." Faces released four studio albums and toured regularly until 1975, when the band split up and Stewart went on to pursue a solo recording career. Earlier in the week the veteran British rockstar was presented with a prestigious lifetime achievement award by five of his children at the American Music Awards.

Rod Stewart announces he will be joined by huge rock icon on stage at Glastonbury
Rod Stewart is set to play the coveted legends slot at Glastonbury next month and the star is bringing a huge rockstar on stagr with him as a special guest. Sir Rod Stewart has announced he will be reuniting with his former Faces bandmate Ronnie Wood during his set at Glastonbury Festival this summer. The 80-year-old rockstar is filling the coveted legends slot at the Worthy Farm festival, with headliners The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo and Neil Young also set to play over the course of the five-day event. Faces, who are best known for hits including Stay With Me, formed in 1969 following the split of Small Faces. The band was made up of bassist Ronnie Lane, keyboard player Ian McLagan, drummer Kenney Jones, Ronnie Wood on guitar and Sir Rod on lead vocals. When asked if he keeps in contact with The Rolling Stones' members and 'other people in music' whilst starring on That Peter Crouch Podcast, Sir Rod replied: "Not really. Woody (Wood) I do a lot, just recently, because we're going to do Glastonbury together. Elton, sometimes, you know, birthdays, but nowhere near how we used to. "I think probably because he doesn't drink anymore, and Woody doesn't drink, and I still do. They stay away from me. Bad influence." He also told the podcast: "I've done it (Glastonbury) before.

"I was only supposed to play for an hour and a quarter, but I've asked them 'Please, another 15 minutes' because I play for over two hours every night and it's nothing, but yeah, looking forward to it." Sir Rod's Glastonbury legends slot will kick off at the traditional teatime on Sunday June 29, although the exact time is not confirmed until the complete timetable is officially announced by organiser Emily Eavis, the Metro reports. While the headliners and the majority of performers for this year's festival have now been confirmed, many fans have been left wondering who the secret set might be after Kasabian's memorable appearance last year. Speculated contenders are Mumford & Sons, Green Day, Sam Fender, The Cure and US rockers HAIM, but it's anyone's guess at this stage. Faces released four studio albums and toured regularly up until the band split in 1975 and Sir Rod went on to pursue his successful solo career. Earlier this week the rock icon was presented with a prestigious lifetime achievement award by five out of his eight children at the American Music Awards (AMAs). Rod's best known solo songs include Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?, Every Beat Of My Heart, and Maggie May. In 2024, the 80-year-old insisted he was not retiring but confirmed his 2025 European and North American shows would bring an end to his 'large-scale world tours', with any future performances to be held at more intimate venues. His latest album, a collaboration with Jools Holland, was released in February 2024 and went to number one on the UK chart.
