The Cure and The Killers have been named as the other two main stage headliners for Glastonbury 2019.
The bands join Stormzy at the tip of the Pyramid Stage, while plenty more have been added to the returning festival – these include Janet Jackson, George Ezra, Liam Gallagher, Miley Cyrus, Tame Impala, The Chemical Brothers, Vampire Weekend, Lauryn Hill, Christine And The Queens, Sigrid, Cat Power, The Streets, Idles and Johnny Marr.
Glastonbury is just one of many European festivals The Cure will be playing this year, and there’s four shows in Sydney booked for May when their 1989 album Disintegration is to be performed in full.
