Glastonbury has released its first list of musical acts for this year's festival.

Kendrick Lamar, Paul McCartney, Taylor Swift and Diana Ross have been announced as the headliners for the 50th instalment of the famous festival.

The festival, like all events of its kind, has been thrown into doubt by the spread of the coronavirus, but co-organiser Emily Eavis said the team are 'working hard' with 'fingers crossed' to deliver the festival as scheduled.

Emily - the eldest daughter of the festival's founder Michael Eavis - added that many more acts were yet to be announced.

Joining the headliners are the likes of AJ Tracey, Blossoms, Camila Cabello, Elbow, Fatboy Slim, Dua Lipa, Dizzee Rascal, Pet Shop Boys, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Sam Fender and Anna Calvi.

It remains to be seen whether the festival will be able to go ahead. Coachella, which was due to take place in California next month, has been pushed back to October.

The Metro reported that the cancellation of Glastonbury could result in £100 million ($126 million) in lost revenue.
