The full line-up and stage timings for this year’s Glastonbury Festival have been announced, proving there is plenty to do while Coldplay is headlining.
Notably, Tame Impala has made the jump to second from top of the Pyramid Stage, having last appeared at a mid-day slot on the Other Stage. Wolf Alice has also shot up the bill, playing an hour-long slot on the main stage on Saturday.
If you’re not a fan of the headliners, there are some stellar acts on at the same time; contending with Muse is Sigur Ros and Underworld, while Adele faces New Order and James Blake.
Coldplay has it hardest, with Coachella headliner’s LCD Soundsystem playing at the same time, along with Grimes and disco legends Earth, Wind and Fire. Check out the full line-up here.
