Fans are describing the 2025 stage poster for the West Holts stage at Glastonbury, a five-day summer festival of contemporary performing arts, as “unreal,” over the acts billed.
Stages like Acoustic and Field of Avalon have already been revealed, while the Pyramid and Other stage headliners were the first to be announced.
The West Holts stage lineup features a ‘multinational selection of artists spanning hip hop, soul, dance, reggae, Afro, psyche & jazz.’
Last year, the stage was shut down during the Sugababes’ set due to overcrowding — and this year’s acts could be just as popular.
Headlining West Holts on Friday night is British electronic duo Maribou State, bringing hits like Midas, Steal, and Feel Good ft. Khruangbin.

Closing the stage on Sunday is another electronic duo; this time, it’s Welsh brothers Ed and Tom Russell, better known as Overmono.
However, Saturday’s headliner is where fans might feel incredibly torn, as US rapper Doechii will take to the stage.
However, it is rumoured that the “Denial is a River hitmaker is likely to be on stage at the same time as Charli XCX, creating a conundrum for chart fans.
Doechii has had a meteoric rise after releasing her album, mirroring that of Charli’s Brat last summer.
It was confirmed by Nick Grimshaw and Annie Mac on their Sidetracked podcast that Charli will headline the Other Stage, along with Loyle Carner and The Prodigy.
Organizers might be hoping Doechii can pull enough Glasto-goers away from the Apple hitmaker’s set to ease any overcrowding fears.
Also on this new announcement are the likes of Kneecap, Greentea Peng, Corto.Alto, Amaarae, and Parcels.
US group Infinity Song was also confirmed for West Holts after accidentally self-confirming and posting they will be at Glastonbury ‘for the first time.’
