SUPERSTAR singer Adele will headline Saturday night at this year's Glastonbury Festival.

She announced the news on stage during a show in London, with organisers of the Somerset festival, which runs across the last weekend in June, confirming soon after.

Emily Eavis tweeted: "What a great honour it is to have the wonderful Adele confirmed for this year's Saturday night headline spot on the Pyramid Stage!"

Adele, who had been linked with the slot for some months, will join already-announced Pyramid Stage bill toppers Muse (Friday) and Coldplay (Sunday).
