Glastonbury fans call out 'awful lack of diversity' as all-male headline bill announced

Glastonbury Festival has announced its 2023 line-up with hundreds more acts expected to be announced soon.

Organisers confirmed Artic Monkeys and Guns N' Roses will top the bill, joining previously announced headliner Sir Elton John, who will play his last ever UK tour date as part of his farewell tour. Releasing its first wave of acts online, the festival confirmed artists including Lana Del Ray, Manic Street Preachers, Lis Nas X, Lizzo and Blondie will also perform at Worthy Farm in Somerset this June.

The line-up also features a number of new acts and emerging artists such as Rina Sawayama, Mahalia and Raye, as well as household names like Cat Stevens, who will play the "legend slot", previously occupied by Kylie and Dolly Parton.
