Full Glastonbury line-up is revealed

The Who, The Killers and the Arctic Monkeys are to headline this year's Glastonbury festival.

The Kaiser Chiefs, Manic Street Preachers, Mika and Paul Weller will also perform at the pop extravaganza, which will take place at Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset from June 22 to June 24.

The festival will also boast a strong female contingent, with sets from Lily Allen, Amy Winehouse, Dame Shirley Bassey and The Gossip.

Organiser Michael Eavis said: "The line-up this year is so good we've even surpassed ourselves. You could not dream up what has happened to this festival. It never fails to amaze me."

Eavis organised the first Glastonbury festival in 1971. The event has grown over the years to become the largest greenfield performing arts festival in the world. A record attendance of 177,500 is expected this year.
