Glastonbury 2025: Check out the full Woodsies line-up
Glastonbury has announced the 2025 line-up for its Woodsies area – you can check it out below.
The legendary festival returns to Worthy Farm in Somerset between June 25 and 29, ahead of a fallow year in 2026. Tickets sold out last November, but two official resales will take place this week (visit here for more info).
Early last month, the first line-up poster confirmed that The 1975 and Olivia Rodrigo would be joining Neil Young in headlining the Pyramid Stage this summer. Rod Stewart will take on the coveted Legend Slot on Sunday, as revealed in late 2024.
Other big acts across the weekend will include Biffy Clyro, The Maccabees, Lucy Dacus, Father John Misty, RAYE, Wolf Alice, The Prodigy, Doechii, St. Vincent, Deftones, The Libertines, Wet Leg, Weezer, AJ Tracey, Nile Rodgers & Chic, Future Islands, JADE, TV On The Radio, Self Esteem, CMAT, Blossoms and Turnstile.
Organisers have recently been drip-feeding separate line-up posters for the many stages, areas and venues across the site in the run-up to June. So far, we’ve had the Acoustic Stage, Field Of Avalon, West Holts, Silver Hayes, Croissant Neuf, Shangri-La and Kidzfield.
Today (April 24), the full bill for Woodsies – fka John Peel Stage – has been unveiled. The main tent will be headlined by the previously announced Four Tet (Friday), Scissor Sisters (Saturday) and Jorja Smith (Sunday).
There are also some new additions who weren’t on the initial main line-up poster in March – such as Tom Odell, Black Country, New Road, The Amazons, Shed Seven, Sorry and Fat Dog.
AJ Tracey will appear on the Woodsies tent too, as will St. Vincent, Blossoms, JADE, TV On The Radio, Weezer, Djo, Myles Smith, Lola Young, Nova Twins and Pinkpantheress. See the poster here:
“Woodsies Main Stage presents an amazing range of the best of today’s music, from established festival acts to the Glastonbury Festival Emerging Talent Competition winners. So be prepared to have your socks blown off,” organisers wrote.
They went on to confirm the return of the Tree Stage, following its Woodsies debut in 2024. This venue will feature the likes of Hot Chip‘s Alexis Taylor, Daniel Avery, Jon Hopkins and Mary Anne Hobbs.
The Tree Stage is “exposed to the elements” and sees “audiences gather around a towering oak tree totem, enveloped by the festival’s unique quadrophonic sound system for an intimate, reconnective experience that blurs the boundary between nature, sound, and self”.
As for its surroundings, the description added: “Dappled in sunlight during the day, the Woods become an enchanted fantasy land at night with an aerial walkway through the tree canopy. The Wood’s Bar offers two house bands playing rare grooves, world and jazz. See you in the trees!”
You can find more information on the Woodsies page of Glastonbury’s website.
NME was given a tour of the Tree Stage at last year’s festival (watch above). “It’s bringing something really new and refreshing to the area,” organiser Lilith Piper told us.
“It’s very much trying to integrate this whole space into being a new listening experience, quite literally in the trees. It is built around a 300-year-old oak tree. It’s pretty magic. It wasn’t born here, but it was resurrected here. We just thought it would be a pretty good sculpture.”
2024 also saw Kasabian deliver a packed-out secret set in the main Woodsies tent.
