Eurovision winners, Kalush Orchestra are set to play Glastonbury this week as the band look to make their debut UK performance. It has also been deemed too dangerous to host next year's Eurovision Song Contest in Ukraine, leading to suggestions that the event could be hosted in the UK.

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds had opened the event on Thursday (June 16), supported by Confidence Man. The Oasis songwriter pleased audiences with hit after hit from his extensive back catalogue together with new solo material. The Manchester Evening news gave his performance five stars, deeming it to be that of a "master at work".
