Some 85 acts joining Foo Fighters, Ed Sheeran, and Radiohead at Glastonbury Festival 2017 have been announced, the likes of Katy Perry, Biffy Clyro and The National being the most notable.

Other performers include The XX, Stormzy, and Solange, while the Sunday “legend” slot has been filled by Bee Gees’ singer Barry Gibb who played last year with headliner Coldplay.

Gibb isn’t the only legend playing Glastonbury: Chic (previously confirmed by Nile Rodgers himself), The Jacksons and country star Kris Kristofferson will also be performing.

With an album due within the next few months, Lorde has also been confirmed for Worthy Farm, having previously teased an appearance. Other female artists joining the 'Royals' singer and Perry will be Laura Marling, Haim, Emeli Sandé, Warpaint, First Aid Kit, and Kate Tempest.

Grime artists are slightly more prominent than last year, Stormzy, Boy Better Know, Kano, Dizzee Rascal, and Wiley leading the way.

Other exciting additions include Anderson .Paak, Phoenix, Run the Jewels, Sampha, Father John Misty, and Justice.
