We may not have too long to wait until we find out who will be joining Radiohead to top the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury this year.

Anticipation is building over who will fill the remaining two slots, with everyone from Foo Fighters to Ed Sheeran rumoured.

Organiser Emily Eavis has reassured everyone that the announcements are coming soon, telling NME of the reveal date: "Some time in March, and there might just be a little thing before.

"We're all gearing up for that. There's not long to wait now. It's only a couple of weeks."

Emily also revealed that organisers are already planning headliners as far ahead as 2020, which will mark the festival's 50th anniversary.

"We're talking to our first headliner for the 50th anniversary," she teased.

What to Read Next

Emily also touched upon Glastonbury's forthcoming alternative event, called the Variety Bazaar, which will apparently have "big" headliners.

Asked what we can expect, she explained: "It's a little bit too early to say. We've got a few years on that yet. It'll be 2021."

She previously clarified that Glastonbury itself would "always be called Glastonbury Festival and will remain at Worthy Farm", following confusion as to whether the Variety Bazaar would replace the main festival.

Glastonbury 2017 runs from June 21-25 and will be the last edition of the annual event before it takes its traditional break in 2018.
