Here’s what you can see and when on the BBC’s Glastonbury live streams today

Happy Live Music Xmas, everyone!

Happy Live Music Xmas, Dear Reader! Yep, Glastonbury 2019 kicks off proper today, as the main music stages spark into life.

After a year off to let fields become less trampled ‘and stuff’, the world’s most hyped music festival is returning with a line-up packed with our favourite bands. While some of you may be lucky enough to currently be ‘on site’ now (and if so, what on earth are you doing reading this? – Ed), for those still at home in the UK there’s no need to miss out, thanks to the unique way the BBC sends several billion people to Worthy Farm to broadcast a whole bunch of stuff direct to our tellys and laptops. Aren’t they nice like that?

Ol’ Auntie will be streaming five stages – the Pyramid, Other, West Holts, John Peel and Park – for most of the weekend. As ever, expect a couple of acts to be mardy and decide they don’t want us to see their sets, and very early performances may not make ‘the cut’ – but still, most of the important stuff will be available. That’s what matters.

You’ll be able to catch the coverage on BBC iPlayer throughout the weekend. They’ve also got a dedicated radio station – Radio Glastonbury – running via the BBC Sounds App, and some programmes on actual telly. That includes a special edition of that famed musical institution ‘The One Show’, who no doubt will be telling us what vegetable Kevin Parker looks like, and a live broadcast of Stormzy’s headline set on BBC Two. That’ll be big. There’ll also be highlights on the red button of your telly across the three days.

If you prefer to curate your own viewing, this is what you can see, and when. We’ll update this article with links to the live streams of each stage when they become available.
