Glastonbury announces Radiohead as first headliner

Tickets for next year's Glastonbury Festival sold out long ago but finally the event has announced Radiohead as its first headline act.

This will be the band's first appearance at the festival since their surprise slot in 2010, as well as their first headline appearance since 2003, and will also mark the 20th anniversary of their groundbreaking 'OK Computer' album, so expect plenty of classic material when they had to Worthy Farm for the Friday night.

Glastonbury Festival will take place from Wednesday 21st to Sunday 25th June, and will be the last before the event takes its regular break in 2018. Check out the announcement from the festival's Twitter page below.
