Glastonbury 2024 line-up announced as organisers confirm headline acts Dua Lipa, Coldplay and Sza

Dua Lipa, Coldplay and Sza will headline Glastonbury 2024, it has been announced.

Shania Twain will perform the Sunday afternoon "legends slot" on the festival's famous Pyramid stage.

With stars including Little Simz, Avril Lavigne, Jessie Ware, Janelle Monae, Cyndi Lauper, PJ Harvey and Camila Cabello on the bill alongside Dua Lipa and Sza, it is a line-up filled with female acts.

For Lipa, it will be her Pyramid stage debut - and comes fresh off the back of Brits and Grammys performances earlier this year.

"FRIDAY NIGHT PYRAMID STAGE HEADLINE!!!!," the star posted on Instagram. "I have dreamt of this moment all my life. Something that lived only in my wildest dreams and highest manifestations !!! I am so excited to see you all in my favourite place on earth and make it a night to remember!!"

It will also be a debut for SZA, who is "quite possibly the hottest hip-hop/ R&B act on the planet", organisers said, while for Coldplay the 2024 headline slot means they become the first act to lead the bill five times.

Canadian star Twain, best known for hits including Man I Feel Like A Woman, You're Still The One, and That Don't Impress Me Much, shared a video post on Instagram saying she was getting her wellies and raincoat ready.

"Another jewel in my crown!" she wrote. "I feel so honoured and so excited about this one! Thinking about what to wear already... Let's make history this summer with this ultimate dream performance."

The strong female line-up comes after organisers were criticised for having all-male headliners last year, with Arctic Monkeys, Guns 'N' Roses and Sir Elton John, performing his last-ever UK gig, topping the bill.

Other acts announced for this year include Idles, Disclosure, The National, Burna Boy, Bloc Party, Jungle and Keane.

Tickets for this year's festival were snapped in under an hour when they went on sale in November. A resale of any cancelled or returned tickets is expected at some time in April.

The event, which hosts more than 3,000 acts and around 200,000 people on site, will take place from 26-30 June.
