Glastonbury 2025

look forward to the next Glastonbury bashing when it’s the ‘worst line up/worst headliner/worst one ever!’



2009 –
‘Christ the lineup, especially "headliners" are shite’

‘Glastonbury is so shite these days because it's gone so fucking middle class. Look at the crowd - full of posh students’

2010 –

‘Glasto used to be a festival of the alternative and underground.

It appears to be like a giant university ball these days.

It's sad’

‘all 3 of the headliners are shit.

None of my mates are bothering going Glastonbury’

‘ it has sold its soul and is now the height of naffness, inhabited purely by pretentious, social climbing cretins called Hugo, Henrietta, Toby ,India and Jonty. Plus a few pseudo-middle-class negative equity wallah's.’


2011 –

Worst Glastonbury ever?

I've never been to Glastonbury. I want to and would but I keep holding out for a decent line-up. But year on year the line-ups get worse.

I wouldn't cross the street to go and see them, let alone pay for an expensive ticket and travel hundreds of miles

Garbage,The good name of Glastonbury is diminishing’

‘i'm waiting till rock and roll music makes a come back, till i go there again.’

‘Headliners for Glastonbury have been going downhill for years, Beyonce FFS’

2012 -

‘Glasto was good in the 90's but has got worse every year. I wouldn't consider going anymore, the line ups have been awful’

‘All the modern day hype in action.

Throw in some scruffy chaps with a chaos pad/uke who've written 4 tunes and the kids will go regardless’

2013 –

‘Not impressed.

Rolling Stones? Do me a favour... They're dragging that old shite out at a proper festival...?’

‘How is that a good line up? Considering its had a year off too.... Arctic monkeys and mumford and sons headlining?!’

‘Music is dead on it's arse. What a fucking shambles of a line up. Feel sorry for anyone who has tickets and expected to see legends play’

‘Dull as fuck

Glastonbury needs a massive kick up the arse.’

2014 –

‘This is a headline act? Fucking hell this is poor, piss poor, voice software, Jesus it's embarrassing.’

‘Florence wank Not the greatest glasto ever thats for sure.’

‘The place is the hippy crack capital of the universe’

2015 –

‘Glastonbury has been a joke for years now. Basically pandering to public school wankers who hijacked the whole thing because they wanted to seem cool.’

‘Can only imagine one thing worse than being at Glastonbury - watching it on telly’

‘had Kanye on for 5 mins utter shite worst headliner ever!

2016 –

‘Used to be edgy but Middle of the road crap for the middle class nowadays , Coldplay ffs’

‘Glastonbury has become too middle aged middle class middle of the road. You could sit down and watch it with your parents, it's become that stale.’

‘I'm starting to think Glastonbury is my version of hell. Something very off about the whole thing.’

‘surrounded by twats and to see the three headline acts....

Muse singing the same song for an hour
Fuckin Adele... No more to be said
And Coldplay sending you to sleep’


2017 –

‘Radiohead are shit.
Poor line up this year. ‘

‘Festivals such as Glastonbury have become the playground of the middle classes, and spoiled rich kids.’

‘I thought I'd give the so called headline acts the benefit of the doubt so listened to some of Radiohead, blimey how dreary are they? Ed Sheeran? He bored me to tears’

2018 –

‘Did they announce the line up before selling tickets, or the other way round? I'm struggling to think why 200,000 would spend that much money for that line up’

‘Glasto is crap, only a couple on worth watching but as a whole it's shite’

‘Just checked todays schedule to see what to watch

What an utter pile of shite’

2019 –

‘I think this has been the most wank Glastonbury ever’

‘Apart from a couple of the headliners, everything else I saw was utter drivel

£25O for that!?!?
‘Total dross, the whole event.’

2022 –

‘Those headliners are names you'd typically associate with being on the third tier of lists’

‘Macca and Diana Ross Headlining? Says a lot about modern music’

‘So far all the artists that are new to me are fucking gash’

‘A pretty shite Glastonbury,thank fuck for The Pet Shop Boys.’


2023 -

‘Does the organiser not know that modern music exists? Always seems to be a washed up headliner these days’

‘All I have heard about it is how expensive it is, and most pictures are of the middle aged people with disposable income who can afford to be there.’

‘Line ups are uninspiring this year’

‘This is fucking awful....
And judging by some of the stuff trending on social media, I'm not the only one that thinks it.’


2024 -

‘It looks shite these days. Line ups are toss, I genuinley think people pay £300 each to watch aged bands just to say that they've been to Glastonbury.’

‘this years line up very disappointing’

‘I think they've gone too far with this one, its just pure pop shite’

‘£340 to watch Dua Lipa pretend to sing to a backing track. Ouch.’

‘Glastonbury line up has declined big time. Some of it really is Karaoke’

2025 -

The headline acts would put me off. And the cost.’

‘imagine turning up there only to find that the 1975 and the jagged little pillock are on’

A total rip off and a waste of good farmland’

The line up is shite this year.’

Worst line up in Glasto history’

Lots of words there for a Sunday night, but without wishing to piss on your chips, 2026 is a 'fallow' year for Glastonbury.
You may want to edit your first line.

Early prediction for headliners: Oasis, Green Day, and Sabrina Carpenter on the Pyramid Stage. Dolly Parton in the legends slot. Haim, Miley Cyrus, and the Chemical Brothers headlining the Other Stage.

Huge audience for him too, they all seem to be enjoying his performance as well. Not really my cup of tea but I’m enjoying it.

Considering the crowds that recent legends have pulled, Rods crowd was pretty lame.
I was sat at the rhs, near the Mandela bar and that part of the field was empty.

There is a reason for this. It's because each year it's getting shitter. Slowly turning into Radio 1 big weekend. Yes I am a FOC but am into lots of newer stuff. I remember when it was a rock/indie and long for those days

I think they need to get more 80s bands in, look at Rick Astley and Pet Shop Boys in recent years they’ve stole the show, Duran Duran are still going and I’m sure there are more. Acts from 60s and 70s are slowly dying or far too old to do this anymore so they need to pve up to 80s/90s which I suppose will be a natural progression.
