Stormzy has been confirmed as the first official headliner for Glastonbury 2019.
The news broke this afternoon when a poster begun appearing in the windows of Oxfam shops in Glastonbury town and Streatham.

It's a leap for the South Londoner who appeared at the festival in 2017 on the much smaller Other Stage.
The announcement comes following rumours that the Friday headline slot would go to a British male.
Festival organiser Emily Eavis previously said the artist booked for the slot is, "one of the most exciting acts in British music… someone who can completely do this."
She went on to say, and now we know she was referring to the grime star, that the slot is a chance for him to become the massive name he can be.
So, Stormzy will be on the festival circuit next summer... that means new music and probably a few Irish dates!
