Glastonbury 2016’s headliners are “pretty much booked”, says Emily Eavis

A couple of weeks ahead of this year’s Glastonbury Festival, Emily Eavis has claimed that 2016’s headliners are already close to be confirmed.

Speaking to Lauren Laverne on BBC Radio 6 Music, Eavis said that next year’s headliners are “pretty much booked up.”

Eavis said: “We’ve been getting calls about next year’s bands and in particular the headline slots. As there’s only three headliners on the Pyramid Stage, we’re pretty much booked up for next year. I think people start booking [festival acts] really early these days. Festivals are so much beyond the main stages, but we work on [the bookings] all year, always coming up with new ideas and ways to make it better.”

Glastonbury 2015 runs from 24th-28th June, with Foo Fighters, Kanye West and The Who headlining. The full line-up was announced yesterday, 2nd June.
