<p>The festival returns to Lamar Tree Gardens in Wiltshire and will take place from 29 August until 1 September 2024. One of Britain&#8217;s best alternative rock and folk festivals, it traces its roots back to 2006, and has since won a number of festival awards, including &#8216;Best Small Festival&#8217; at the 2011 UK Festival Awards and &#8216;Best Small Festival&#8217; at the NME Awards in 2016, 2017 and 2019.</p>
<p>Bristol rock favourites Idles will end their summer with an appearance at End Of The Road before jetting off for their second North American tour of the year later in September. The post-hardcore heavyweights return to Lamar Tree Gardens having performed at the Big Top stage back in 2018.</p>
<p>Shoegaze giants Slowdive will cap off a heavy summer schedule filled with European festival shows with a headline appearance at this year&#8217;s event. The group released their fifth studio <em>Everything Is Alive</em> last September, returning with their signature shoegaze sound that continues to delight fans new and old.</p>
<p>Watch the music video for &#8220;<em>Sugar For The Pill</em>&#8221; by Slowdive below:</p>

<p>Another headlining act is Swedish artist Fever Ray, AKA Karin Dreijer, formerly part of electronic music duo The Knife. Dreijer will bring their illuminating, experimental art-pop for all to witness next summer and will be joined by folk hero Will Oldham, better known professionally as Bonnie &#8220;Prince&#8221; Billy (or Palace in his formative years). Once labelled an &#8216;Appalachian post-punk solipsist&#8217;, the DIY folk singer is known for both his ability to transcend sub-genres of folk, making them his own, and for his enigmatic and wholly spiritual live shows. His upcoming first appearance at Britain&#8217;s premier folk festival is, therefore, long overdue.</p>
<p>Watch the music video for &#8220;<em>I See A Darkness</em>&#8221; by Bonnie &#8220;Prince&#8221; Billy below:</p>

<p>End Of The Road festival saw King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard and Allah-Las perform last year, and past years have seen acts like Jeffrey Lewis, Patti Smith, Tame Impala and Mac DeMarco play.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Glastonbury festival have announced their star-studded line-up for the 2023 edition of the event. The line-up is a first look at headliners and acts who will appear at the festival, however fans can expect more acts to be announced. Guns N’ Roses and Arctic Monkeys will join previously announced Elton John in June as headliners to perform on the Pyramid Stage. Arctic Monkeys are set to headline the Friday event, Guns N’ Roses will headline the Saturday event and Elton John will be headlining on the Sunday. The festival is scheduled to take place between the 21st and 25th of June, at Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset.<br />

<p>Among the list of announced acts are; Lewis Capaldi, Lana Del Ray, Chvrches, Lizzo, Kelis, Aitch, Christine and the Queens, Raye, Rudimental, Stefflon Don, Alison Goldfrapp, Mahalia, Rina Sawayama, FLO, Royal Blood and many more. Lil Nas X will return to the Glastonbury stage to perform before Elton Johns performance. Lana Del Ray will perform on the other stage. She performed in 2014 at Glastonbury&#8217;s Pyramid stage. Lizzo will perform before american rock band, Guns N&#8217; Roses, take to the stage.</p>
<p>The announcement is expected to produce a controversial reaction from fans, due to the all-male headliners. 52% of the 54 artists announced so far are male. Co-organiser of the Glastonbury Festival, Emily Eavis, <a href="https://amp.theguardian.com/music/2023/mar/03/arctic-monkeys-guns-n-roses-elton-john-all-male-glastonbury-headliners-a-pipeline-problem-says-emily-eavis">confirmed</a> that Guns N’Roses were booked as headliners after a female artist, whose name has not been revealed, <em>“changed her touring plans.”</em> Eavis explained that she hopes the artist will headline within the next five years. Many fans had hopes for Taylor Swift to headline in 2023, however her ‘The Era’s Tour’ will be taking place in the US during this years festival. The singer was announced as a headliner for the 2020 Glastonbury Festival but the event was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.</p>
<p>Eavis confirmed her hopes for next years Glastonbury, explaining we could expect two female first-time headliners for the 2024 festival. One act has reportedly been confirmed, whereas another is still in the process of being confirmed. Madonna and Rihanna are among the most highly anticipated acts to headline the festival, as both have never performed at Glastonbury.</p>
<p>The festival made the news headlines last year, as it was announced ticket prices were increasing significantly. Emily Eavis <a href="https://amp.theguardian.com/music/2023/mar/03/arctic-monkeys-guns-n-roses-elton-john-all-male-glastonbury-headliners-a-pipeline-problem-says-emily-eavis">commented</a> on the situation,<em> “We put it up the minimum we could. In order to do the exact same show as last time, we would have had to put £100 on the ticket. That’s the amount that costs have gone up.” </em>The tickets for the 2023 Glastonbury festival went on sale in November and are currently sold out. There will be a resale of any returned or cancelled tickets in April, with a set date yet to be announced.</p>
