Will Prince headline Glastonbury 2013 and who else is likely?

The most rumoured acts for this year's festival

 

  • Daft Punk - Almost definitely not: Another act that is rumoured almost every year for the festival, this year fans hoped there might be more weight behind the rumour than in the past what with news of new material from the duo. But Rob Da Bank has stated explicitly that promoters have been told Daft Punk won't be playing any live shows in 2013.

If today's tabloid reports are to be believed, Prince is looking likely to be the first confirmed headliner at this year's Glastonbury Festival.

The Purple Rain star has reportedly booked three dates at the Montreaux Jazz festival in July, after the Glastonbury weekend at the end of June.

He had been targeted to appear at the 2011 festival, but it fell apart when the singer refused to confirm his appearance any more than six weeks ahead of the festival.

The 2011 event was instead headlined by U2, Coldplay and Beyonce.

Other potential acts for this year's festival include The Rolling Stones and Radiohead, and Alt-J appeared to accidentally confirm their attendence when they mentioned they were 'playing Glastonbury' during a post-BRITs interview. But who will be the big names of Glastonbury 2013? Check out the bands and artists currently in the mix in the Glasto rumour mill
