They first took the top slot in 2002 after replacing The Strokes at the last minute.
Coldplay, fronted by Chris Martin, also headlined the main stage in 2005, 2011, and 2016. Before then, they played the New Tent in 1999 and The Other Stage in 2000, also making them one of the bands to play the festival the most times.
In second place are The Cure, who headlined Glastonbury in 1986, 1990, 1995, and 2019.
In joint second place, sort of, is Elvis Costello who also headlined the event four times – in 1984 as the Saturday night special guest, in 1987 and 1994 with his band The Attractions, and in 1989 with a solo set.
Who has played Glastonbury the most times?
Performing at the festival an impressive eight times, Northern Irish singer Van Morrison has performed at Glastonbury more than anyone else.
