THE headliners and line-up of the West Holts stage at Glastonbury Festival 2024 have been announced.
Jungle, Jessie Ware and Justice will top the bill. Other performers include the Sugababes, Brittany Howard and Corinne Bailey Rae.
Glastonbury is set to take place at Worthy Farm in Pilton between June 26 and 30.
According to a festival spokesperson, the West Holts stage is the "outernational rhythm hub of Glastonbury, taking you on a journey from spiritual jazz and neo soul through cosmic disco, dance queen divas, breakbeat culture , afrofunk, reggae, hip hop, psychedelia and music that defies any categorisation at all".
Speaking about Saturday headliner Jessie Ware, a spokesperson said: "It’s that mix of high glamour and down-home relatability that has helped propel Jessie Ware to superstar status.
"She may have garnered the status of a high-powered disco diva but she radiates inclusivity, particularly toward the LGBTQ community who she has long championed."
The return of fan favourites Sugababes is also eagerly anticipated.
A spokesperson commented: "Looking back on it, the Sugababes roadblock performance on the Avalon stage in 2022 seemed like firing the starting gun for one of the most remarkable comebacks in musical history.
"You could argue that the Sugababes never really went away but naming rights issues and multiple personnel changes didn’t help the cause.
"So, it was deeply satisfying to see the original trio of Mutya Buena, Keisha Buchanan and Siobhán Donaghy back in control and playing ever bigger stages."
