Roger Daltrey has shared his excitement ahead of the festival, stating: “It’s great to be ending this part of a 50 year career at the most prestigious and respected music festival in the world. We'll do our best to close this years event with a bang, unless of course the fireworks get wet!”

The final remaining tickets for Glasto sold out last month, however fans who’d love the chance to see the band have a second chance, as they’ll also be playing at British Summer Time Festival, in London’s Hyde Park, on Friday 26 June.

The Who are believed to be the final big addition to the Glastonbury line-up, joining fellow headliners Kanye West and Foo Fighters.

Other acts performing over the weekend include Florence And The Machine, Patti Smith, Lionel Richie and Pharrell Williams.
