Gorillaz will be joined by all the special guests from their recent album 'Plastic Beach' when they headline Glastonbury on Friday (June 26).

The group are set to top the bill on the Pyramid Stage after U2 pulled out due to injury.

Frontman Damon Albarn said he expected “everyone” to appearing on stage during their set. 'Plastic Beach' featured the likes on Snoop Dogg, Mos Def and Lou Reed.

"The full set. At this moment, on Tuesday, everyone is coming,” the singer told XFM.

“But that doesn't mean by Friday, we may have a few casualties on the way."

Albarn, who also headlined the Glastonbury last year with Blur, said it was an “incredible honour” to be going back.

The 40th anniversary edition of the festival will also be headlined by Muse and Stevie Wonder.
