Did you get tickets to the Glastonbury festival this year? Not to worry if not, you can watch from the comfort of your own home on BBC iPlayer.
Squid Game is coming to an end with season three, Brad Pitt is speeding into UK cinemas with his new film F1 and gaming auteur Hideo Kojima is releasing the sequel to Death Stranding.
The UK’s biggest festival opens its doors on Wednesday, with fans gathering at the Pyramid Stage to see headline sets from The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo and Neil Young.
If you weren’t one of the roughly 140,000 people who got a ticket, though, you can follow all the action at home. The BBC is there all week, with live coverage across TV, radio and iPlayer – covering all the main stages, with more than 90 hours of music. To whet your appetite, there’s already a Glastonbury Hits Channel on iPlayer, streaming classic tracks from previous years – with highlights including Oasis, Little Simz, The Who and Lady Gaga.
And if you’re heading down to Worthy Farm and can’t be bothered fighting for a position at the main stages, I’d recommend a visit to the Avalon field, which might just have this year’s best line-up. You can relive your 2000s indie disco dreams with Hard-Fi, The Fratellis and Ash; check out some of 2025’s best new indie artists, courtesy of Orla Gartland and Rachael Chinouriri; and celebrate the memory of Amy Winehouse, with an hour-long set from her former band.
