Neil Young is nothing short of a musical legend, with an iconic career spanning folk rock, grunge rock and country music over the last 60 years. Now he’s back once again to headline Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage.
Young has played at Glasto before, but this is the first time he’ll take the coveted Saturday night slot. And with more than 40 studio albums and eight live ones under his belt, it’s set to be a contender for the headliner Hall of Fame. So, here is everything you need to know about timings, setlist and potential guests at Neil Young’s 2025 Glastonbury set.

When is Neil Young headlining Glastonbury 2025?
Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts are headlining at the Pyramid Stage on Saturday, June 28.

What’s been said about the setlist so far?
Artists headlining the Pyramid Stage often have something a little special up their sleeves for Glasto, but based on one of Young’s most recent performances at Dalhalla in Sweden, it could look a little something like this, according to Setlist.fm:
- Sugar Mountain
- Be the Rain
- When You Dance, I Can Really Love
- Cinnamon Girl
- Fuckin’ Up
- Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black)
- The Needle and the Damage Done
- Harvest Moon
- Looking Forward
- Sun Green
- Love and Only Love
- Like a Hurricane
- Name of Love
- Old Man
- Rockin’ in the Free World
However, back in 2009 when he last headlined, Young performed a super-extended version of ‘Down By The River’ and an encore performance of Beatles’ song ‘A Day In The Life’, so hopefully there’ll be some surprises in store for us.
