Glastonbury 2017 headliners odds, rumours, and predictions; who will be announced?

From Guns 'N Roses to Lady Gaga

As always, tickets for Glastonbury Festival sold out within minutes of being released without the line-up having been announced - people just can’t get enough of Worthy Farm’s pleasant pastures.

Rumours surrounding the festival’s headliners have been swirling for some time, the event’s organiser - Michael Eavis - having revealed two are already in place.

Bookies William Hill have revealed their favourites to top the Pyramid Sage, listed below with our own thoughts on who will be topping the bill.

Guns N’ Roses - 4/6

Axl Rose and his motley crew got back together earlier this year, their comeback tour earning them significantly large amounts of money. Whether they’ll make the trip over to play Glastonbury, a festival known not to offer headliners much in monetary gain, is anyone's gues.

Kasabian - 6/4

Lead singer Tom Meighan at Glastonbury Festival

Having headlined the festival in 2014, it’s surprising to see the Leicester band quite so high up on the bookies' list. Could they come back so soon? Without a new album out, it seems unlikely, but we’ve still got a few months.

Stone Roses - 4/1 - debunked

They pulled out of their 1995 slot; 17 years later, could they finally play Worthy Farm? They’ve released two new singles and a rumoured album is on the way, plus they’ve got some very Glastonbury friendly gigs booked. This could definitely be the year.

Radiohead - 6/4 - confirmed

Radiohead was heavily rumoured to be playing a secret set last year, something that turned out to be false. With A Moon Shaped Pool out this year, thought, perhaps they could be heading to the Pyramid Stage. UPDATE: Guitarist Ed O'Brien has since responded to the rumours they will be headlining.

Ed Sheeran - 4/1

The troubadour has yet to headline a major festival but has sold out stadiums around the country; could this be his year to step up to the major leagues? No-one thought Adele would be a good headliner, but she proved them wrong. Could Sheeran do the same?

Foo Fighters - 5/1

Dave Grohl pulled out of Glastonbury 2015 due to a broken leg, leading to Florence + the Machine stepping up for their first major headline slot. Last year, it was thought they would be back to no avail, but 2017 could very well be their year.

Rihanna - 6/1

Ever since Beyoncé headlined in 2011, people have wondered when her pop-rival Rihanna would be taking to the festival. Anti was a hit - perhaps we could see her finally headline in 2017.

Lady Gaga - 16/1

Lady Gaga

A Super Bowl half-time show on the cards. A new album on the way. Lady Gaga is officially back, and what better way to top it all off than a Glastonbury slot? Regulars Kevin Park and Mark Ronson might even pop round.

Gorillaz - 9/1

Damon Albarn has been teasing Gorillaz new record for some time now, the band’s social media accounts released two virtual books - The Book of Noodle and The Book of Russell - to tease the upcoming LP. Theirs a big chance they could be back at Worthy Farm to celebrate their fifth release.

Daft Punk - 9/1 - debunked

Every year, people believe Daft Punk will play the Pyramid, and every year people are severely let down. Having released new music with The Weeknd and a rumoured new record on the way, perhaps the duo will appear on the bill - they didn’t play after Random Access Memories though, so don’t get your hopes up.

Who else? Green Day

They’ve got a new record out, could this be pop-Punk’s year atop the Pyramid stage? They’ve done Reading and Leeds countless times, so why not?

Beyoncé

With Formation breaking the internet and an incredible world tour behind her, surely the current Queen of Pop could return for another headline slot. And Mr Carter himself, Jay Z, cold come too, we’re not fussy.

Kraftwerk

The German band haven’t played a UK slot since 2013, but they’re set to play over here in 2017, the tour finishing the day Glastonbury starts. If not atop the Pyramid stage, then surely the Other stage?
