As the crowds dispersed from Worthy Farm this past June, the buzz surrounding who would take the headline spot at Glastonbury 2025 began to grow. It seemed that one name in particular kept popping up - the X Factor and One Direction sensation, Harry Styles. Despite his humble beginnings on a popular talent show, Harry has quickly risen to fame with a sold-out world tour and a string of hit songs. With his ever-growing popularity and bookies slashing odds, it's no surprise that he's now the top contender for the headline spot at Glastonbury.
With Oasis confirming they won't be performing at the iconic festival, many big names have been thrown into the mix for the coveted show. However, it's Harry, at 30 years old, who remains the favorite with 1-2 odds according to Coral Bookmakers. John Hill from Coral explained, "Harry Styles is proving to be a popular choice in our betting for one of the headline acts at Glastonbury 2025. It's clear that the former One Direction star is set to make a big appearance at Worthy Farm next summer."
Rumors began to circulate that Harry had already been approached to take the Pyramid Stage by festival organizer Emily Eavis, who reportedly considers him a dream booking for Glastonbury. A source shared with The Sun, "Harry would be the perfect headliner for Glastonbury and Emily has been wanting to get him on stage at Worthy Farm for a while now. The stars just haven't aligned until now." The former One Direction member hasn't performed in the UK since his surprise appearance at Stevie Nicks' BST Hyde Park set in July, but fans are hopeful for his return with the possibility of a fourth studio album in the works.
But Harry isn't the only male solo artist on the bookies' radar. Ed Sheeran sits at 1-4 odds, closely followed by Eminem at 5-2. And let's not forget about the powerhouse vocals of Adele, who headlined the festival in 2016 and has 1-3 odds, along with newcomer Olivia Rodrigo. The legendary Cher has also been mentioned by unnamed sources, with rumors of "meaningful talks" in the works, though it's likely she would take the legends slot. And of course, Madonna's name is always thrown into the mix, currently at 5-4 odds for a potential performance.
For the highly coveted band slot, Green Day is the top contender with 1-2 odds, while Foo Fighters, despite recent drama with Dave Grohl, hold onto 2-1 odds. John from Coral says, "Green Day are the big movers in the Glastonbury 2025 betting. The American band are now odds-on to have the time of their lives at the festival next summer." Though they have never played at Worthy Farm, their recent 20th anniversary celebration of "American Idiot" has fans hopeful for a performance.
And while rumors of a Spice Girls reunion continue to swirl, it's uncertain if they will make an appearance at Glastonbury. But fans can always hope for a surprise guest appearance.
