Glastonbury Festival 2022: McFly, Sugababes, The Hoosiers and more added to the line-up

Over 25 new names have been added to the Glastonbury Festival line-up for 2022.

The line-up poster has been revealed for the Field of Avalon area - the first of any section of the festival this year - and features a load of huge names including McFly, Sugababes, The Hoosiers, The Damned, Nick Mulvey and more.

The newly announced acts will join the existing names already announced by the festival last month which includes headliners Billie Eilish, Paul McCartney and Kendrick Lamar.

Former Beatles star Sir Paul McCartney will take on the Saturday night headline slot which will become his second time topping the Pyramid stage. Meanwhile, Billie Eilish will become the festival's youngest ever solo headliner on the Friday night. American rapper Kendrick Lamar will complete the headline trio on the Sunday night.

Elsewhere in the first wave of acts announced is Foals, Lorde, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, Olivia Rodrigo, Wolf Alice and Years & Years. Diana Ross will also play the legends slot on the Sunday afternoon.

The second wave of acts now released by the festival will all play within the Field of Avalon stage throughout the five-day festival that is due to take place from June 22 to June 26, although the exact timings are yet to be released for the different acts.

Fans can begin to get excited for the festival season as preparations are already underway at Worthy Farm. The Pyramid stage is beginning to take shape after three years out of action due to back-to-back coronavirus cancellations.

Resale tickets were made available online on March 27 and were snapped up in a matter of minutes meaning that if you've not already got a ticket for the five-day festival this year, you're going to have to wait another year.
