Coldplay To Headline Glastonbury

...and fans are not taking this lying down

Coldplay are set to headline this year's Glastonbury.

It's the band's fourth headline slot at Worthy Farm, having previously performed in 2002, 2005, and 2011.

Coldplay will head up the bill on Sunday night (June 26th) with the other headline acts set to be announced closer to the time.

The reaction to the news has been largely negative, though, with fans voicing their rage on social media. In an echo of the Kanye West furore last year one fan has even launched her own petition:

"Coldplay are an insult to music fans all over the world. We spend hundreds of pounds to attend glasto, and by doing so, expect a certain level of entertainment."

Glastonbury runs between June 22nd – 26th.
