Glastonbury 2025 Friday live: Neil Young branded ‘angry old hippie’ after BBC broadcast ban
Things are windy on Worthy Farm.
Glastonbury 2025 has officially begun, and with it comes fresh drama.
After months of build-up, the world’s most iconic music festival is in full swing, with thousands of fans descending on Worthy Farm for a weekend of unforgettable performances, muddy feet, and plenty of pints.
Neil Young will also be playing on Saturday night, though the BBC has confirmed they will not be broadcasting his set per his request (much to the annoyance of fans).
This year’s line-up is one of the most eclectic yet. The 1975 headline the Pyramid Stage tonight, with Neil Young taking over on Saturday and Olivia Rodrigo closing the festival on Sunday.
Sunday afternoon also sees Rod Stewart in the beloved Legends Slot – expect sing-alongs, sequins, and maybe even a few tears.
Friday’s highlights include Charli XCX, Kneecap, Wet Leg, RAYE, Doechii, The Libertines, Gracie Abrams, and many more.
As for the weather – it’s a proper Glasto mix. Sunshine and warm temperatures (24–25°C) are paired with strong winds, so prepare for anything: Bring sunscreen, a raincoat, and extra tent pegs.
