Emily Eavis has clarified her father's remarks about the final headliner, saying that one band will headline the Sunday night spot.

Writing on Twitter, Eavis was asked to respond to a query "any truth to the rumours of a Sunday night charity super group arranged by Chris Martin". She tweeted back "ah, don't get confused by the two bands together story! We are announcing one band as headliner but a great penultimate too.."

As previously reported, following a talk at London's Victoria & Albert Museum on (Tuesday 21 April), festival boss Michael Eavis revealed that not only will the next Glastonbury announcement be on 1 June, but that the bands involved were "most likely" British and that Coldplay's Chris Martin was involved.

It remains unclear whether or not this means Coldplay could either headline or play a secret slot, or perhaps if Martin is involved in another capacity. It is worth noting however, that Emily denied Coldplay would headline saying in March, saying: "It's not Coldplay, this is the first year that most of the rumours are wrong."

However, things change and Coldplay are no strangers to Worthy Farm - having headlined four times previously, the last in 2011.  They are currently bookies' favourites, facing off Stone Roses and Madonna.

Earlier this month, a massive 70 acts were announced for the 2015 event, with the likes of Patti Smith, Florence + The Machine and Pharrell Williams joining the previously announced headliners of Foo Fighters and Kanye West.

Glastonbury 2015 takes place at Worthy Farm from 24 - 28 June. Other rumoured headliners including Coldplay, Stone Roses, Fleetwood Mac, Blur, Paul McCartney, Elton John, Taylor Swift, Queen and more. Want to go? Your best bet is putting your name down on the waiting list to be an Oxfam steward.
