Charli xcx Burns ‘Brat' at Packed Glastonbury Set: 'I Don't Know Who I Am If It's Over'
Charli xcx and Neil Young had Glastonbury split in two Saturday night. Many of the festival fans were supporting Young and The Chrome Hearts on the Pyramid stage late in the evening, but as the performances clashed, an even bigger proportion wanted to witness the culture-defining Brat set.

She continued delighting the thousands of fans watching on with some of her old school hits including 'party 4 u' and 'I Love It.' 'I know I'm meant to have a heart of stone,' the English star said from the Other stage, 'but this is very fucking emotional right now… Thank you so much, you're fucking cool as fuck. But not as cool as me, bitch!' Among some of the highlights from the set included Gracie Abrams — on Worthy Farm this weekend as a performer, also — being selected as Charli's 'Apple' girl. The Brit said: 'I love you so much, Gracie,' as the U.S. singer blew kisses at the camera. At the end of the raucous performance, where Charli sipped white wine and splashed around in on-stage rain, signage on either side of the stage thanked fans for their ongoing support. 'I think you've all proven to me that brat is forever,' one of them read, 'I don't know who I am if it's over.' Some were questioning the decision to put Charli on the Other stage while headliner Young, who drew a notably smaller crowd, was on the Pyramid slot. Other take-aways from this weekend's Glastonbury Festival, the U.K.'s crowning jewel of music festivals in Somerset, England, include The 1975's headline set — where Charli's partner and band drummer George Daniel graced the stage — as well as Lorde's surprise performance on the Woodsies stage Friday morning.

Neil Young, Glastonbury Festival, review: A reverent display of classic rock
To no one's great surprise, there were no explosions, fireworks, articulated platforms, interactive screens, confetti or special effects at Neil Young's Glastonbury headline set. Nor, to give credit to the 79-year-old rocker, were there any of the pre-recorded backing tracks and fake vocals so ubiquitous in modern live productions. There was just an old man and his accomplished four-piece band The Chrome Hearts alternately making a heck of a grungy distorted racket, or playing acoustic campfire ballads with sweet, shaky harmonies. His first song, Sugar Mountain, contained a lovely, wheezy harmonica solo and tender vocals. His second song, Be The Rain, went on for 10 minutes raging about the environment and contained a wildly distorting guitar solo that no one in the band seemed to have any idea where it was headed, including Young who was playing it. The stocky old star in the raggy check shirt and trucker cap switched between these two poles all night, and didn't seem to give much of a damn what anyone made of it. He looked like he was enjoying himself, in any case. This is what all rock festivals used to be like, before modern day screens and blockbuster productions, and it was kind of refreshing: five men (it was usually men back in the day) who've barely dressed for the occasion stirring up an electric storm of distorted guitar stomps, revelling in their ability to conjure wild solos on the spot. 'Rock and roll will never die,' Young wailed during a long, feedbacky version of Hey Hey, My My, but the evidence was very much against him. This is like a last gasp of a fading art form, played to a receptive crowd but not a massive one. The youngsters had dispersed around the festival to see new generation pop heroes. Charli XCX drew a bigger crowd than Young at the overpacked Other Stage, breakout US rap singer Doechi was killing it on the West Holts stage and they were turning people away from camp disco pop entertainers the Scissor Sisters at the Woodsies marquee. Young entertained the faithful but when he was tuning his guitar between songs you could have heard a pin drop. In a rare production moment they summoned a keyboard that descended from overhead to play Like A Hurricane, and acted like they had just broken the fourth wall in an act of outrageous showcraft. It was kind of silly but who cares when you are listening to a band of supreme musicians find their way through one of the all time great rock songs as if they are discovering it for the first time. The staging may have been plain, but the playing was fantastic. Harvest Moon was gorgeous. The Needle and the Damage Done was moving. Rockin In The Free World was an absolute blast. It was a genuinely great Neil Young set, filled with classic songs, played and sung with passion and panache. And lots of distortion. Give me that over Charli XCX miming or the 1975 posturing on stage every time.

Neil Young at Glastonbury 2025: Livestream His Headline Festival Set Free From Anywhere
In news that will come as a relief to armchair classic rock fans, Canadian rock star Neil Young appears to have had a surprise change of heart and has given his permission for his headline set today at Glastonbury to be broadcast live by the BBC. Below, we'll outline which live TV streaming service will be streaming Saturday's main headline show at Glastonbury, wherever you are in the world. We'll also explain how to use a VPN if you're outside of the UK. The veteran musician, performing with his band The Chrome Hearts, had previously withheld permission for the BBC to air his Pyramid Stage set. Until this morning, the 78-year-old's performance was notably absent from the broadcaster's coverage plans, with a spokesperson confirming they would not be airing it "at the artist's request." This marked a break from the longstanding tradition of televising all headline acts at the iconic festival. However, in a surprise announcement the public service broadcaster confirmed earlier today that Young's show is now set to be televised live on BBC2. Judging by the setlist from his show at Malahide Castle in Dublin this week, fans can expect a crowd-pleasing set that's likely to draw heavily from his seminal 70's catalog. Adding to the buzz, rumors are swirling that celebrity fan Paul McCartney could make a guest appearance during Neil Young and The Chrome Heart's set. The former Beatle -- who recently named Young's 1972 classic Harvest as one of his three favorite albums of all time -- was spotted on site at Glastonbury yesterday catching sets from Inhaler and Gracie Abrams. McCartney previously joined Young on stage during a memorable 2009 show in London's Hyde Park. Neil Young is set to play the Other Stage at Glastonbury on Saturday, June 28, with the set expected to start no earlier than 10 p.m. BST in the UK. That makes it a 5 p.m. ET or 2 p.m. PT start in the US and Canada, while for music fans in Australia the show is set to get underway at 7 a.m. AEST on Sunday morning. Neil Young released his latest album, Talkin to the Trees, this month, which features his current backing band, The Chrome Neil Young at Glastonbury 2025 free in the UK The great news for music fans in the UK is that free-to-air broadcaster BBC is once again showing vast amounts of this year's festival live as well as on demand across its linear channels and its iPlayer online streaming service. Linear coverage will be split across all four BBC channels, with Saturday's Neil Young performance now set to be shown live on BBC 2 from 10 p.m. BST local time. You can also stream a live feed from the Pyramid Stage via the online platform BBC iPlayer, which is offering continuous livestreams from the five main festival stages across the weekend. Pyramid Stage sets are available to watch in 4K on iPlayer, while the service will also offer catch-up on more than 90 on-demand sets for up to 30 days after broadcast. BBC BBC Watch Glastonbury 2025 in the UK free BBC iPlayer has dedicated apps available for Android and Apple mobile devices, as well as a vast array of smart TVs and streaming boxes, all you need is a valid UK TV license to stream the festival. See at BBC Neill Young at Glastonbury 2025: Can I watch in the US, Canada and Australia? While last year's Pyramid Stage headline sets by Coldplay and Duo Lipa were livestreamed to a global audience by the BBC, it looks like this year's broadcasts from the festival are back to being geo‑restricted to UK viewers only. If you find yourself unable to view the festival locally, you may need a different way to watch the entertainment from Worthy Farm -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. How to watch Glastonbury 2025 online from anywhere using a VPN If you're traveling abroad and want to watch all the big name acts at Glastonbury while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds. It can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you're considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform's terms of service to ensure compliance. If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider's installation instructions, ensuring you're connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN use is crucial.

Glastonbury 2025 Saturday live: The fun continues!
Shake off your hangover and get out of your sweaty tent because it's day two of Glastonbury 2025. That's right, if yesterday was the starter, then today is the main course with some of the most iconic acts in music set to prove why Glasto is the world's greatest music festival. Today's all-star lineup includes Neil Young And The Chrome Hearts on the Pyramid Stage, you've got the Scissor Sisters on Woodsies, and (my personal fave) Doechii on West Holts, among many more. This afternoon, we'll finally learn who the mysterious secret act 'Patchwork' is as well – after Lewis Capaldi's emotional performance last night, the favourite is now Chappel Roan, but there's speculation mounting (in the Metro office at least) that it may be Robbie Williams. As for the weather today, well, it's expected to be a hot one with highs of 24–25°C. So with that in mind, bring your bucket hat, some suncream, and maybe a waterproof, just in case (you never know with British summers). Stick with us for rolling updates, surprise guests, backstage gossip, and everything going down at Worthy Farm. Sort: Newest first Oldest first June 28, 2025 7:09 am Saturday begins Good morning campers and those keeping up at home. I hope you slept well.

Glastonbury Festival 2025's Saturday line-up, headliners and set times
Glastonbury Festival 2025 is heading into day four with the likes of Neil Young and The Chrome Hearts, Charli XCX, Doechii and Scissor Sisters Day four of Glastonbury Festival 2025 is in full swing, with hundreds of thousands of revellers keeping the party alive into the weekend. Although the festival opened its gates to the public on Wednesday, Saturday, June 28 marks the second day that headlining acts are set to dazzle across the numerous stages. Last night saw The 1975 rock the Pyramid Stage, marking their first return to the festival in nearly a decade. Tonight's top billing is expected to be Neil Young and The Chrome Hearts, but there's been some confusion over whether fans at home will be able to tune in to his performance. While the BBC iPlayer is geared up to stream live from the main five stages, it remains uncertain if Neil Young's act will be broadcast for home viewers. A BBC spokesperson clarified: "On Saturday on BBC iPlayer, our Glastonbury Channel and five streams for the main stages will bring a range of live performances to audiences." They added: "At the artist's request, we won't be livestreaming Neil Young's set. Our plans, including those for our TV highlights shows and on-demand coverage, continue to be finalised right up to and during the festival." In contrast, Charli XCX's headline performance on the Other Stage will be broadcast live on iPlayer and BBC One starting at 10.30pm. For those enjoying the festival from the comfort of their homes, the BBC's The Glastonbury Hits Channel offers a chance to dive into classic sets and iconic moments, all accessible through iPlayer, reports Somerset Live. BBC iPlayer is set to offer over 90 hours of performances with live streams from the five main stages - Pyramid, Other, West Holts, Woodsies and The Park. This will allow viewers to create their own list of must-see acts and plan their weekend. Sets from the Pyramid Stage will be available to stream live in Ultra High Definition and in British Sign Language. For those who prefer radio, they can tune into BBC Radio 6 Music, BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra, BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds. Saturday's line-up has a mystery act listed as 'Patchwork' performing from 6.15pm to 7.15pm on the Pyramid Stages. Speculation is rife that it could be anyone from Haim to Pulp to Chappell Roan. Below are the line-ups and set times for all the main stages, along with a few extras. Live feeds will be available from the main five stages.
