Brit rock band The Who have been confirmed to headline Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage in June where they will also be joined by other acts such as Foo Fighters and Kanye West.

The legendary rock band, who last played at the festival in 2007, will be closing this year's sold-out Glastonbury Festival, the Mirror reported.

An insider from the festival told The Sun newspaper that the 60s rock band booking had been kept quiet because the band was also playing a Hyde Park gig for the British Summer Time festival so the announcement will be made in a few weeks.

Artists namely Motorhead, Mavis Staples, Jungle, Deadmau5, FKA twigs, Franz Ferdinand, Sparks, the Moody Blues, Azealia Banks, Alabama Shakes, Paloma Faith, The Chemical Brothers, Clean Bandit and Lionel Richie will also mark their attendance at the event which is set to take place near Pilton, Somerset, England from June 24 to June 28, 2015.
