Dive Into Glastonbury’s Block9: The Heartbeat of Electronic Music
If you were lucky enough to wander into Glastonbury's famed Block9 in 2025, you’d know it was the place to be for late-night electronic music revelry. Nestled in the festival's famously wild south-east corner, Block9 is a haven for the clubbers and bassheads, and this year, it housed four electrifying stages: IICON, Genosys, the NYC Downlow, and The Meat Rack.

The vibrant Block9 area at Glastonbury Festival 2025 pulsated with energy and unforgettable beats.
For those of us who lived for the immersive vibe of the underground scene, Block9 offered a playground of sound, lights, and unending dance floors into the early hours. The organizers have now gifted fans a chance to relive the magic by releasing a two-volume mix series featuring "the selectors that tore up the Block9 stages this summer."
Meet the Mixes: Sub Focus and IMOGEN Take the Stage
The first volume features some of the finest talents from the festival. Sub Focus’s set at IICON anchors the collection, delivering that signature blend of drum and bass energy that fans crave. Alongside him, GIDEÖN and Heléna Star bring the heat from NYC Downlow, while IMOGEN spins an unforgettable set at Genosys.
These mixes are more than just recordings—they’re portals back to those pulsating nights. You can stream these sets right now on Bandcamp, with the added bonus that Block9 encourages donations to Medical Aid For Palestinians, blending music with meaningful support.
Here’s the Bandcamp stream to jump in:
The anticipation builds for the second volume, promising sets from Ryan Hope of Gabriels, Smokin Jo, Guy Williams, among others.
Reliving Glastonbury’s Electrifying 2025 Weekend
Of course, Block9 was just one slice of the Glastonbury 2025 cake. The festival’s headliners—The 1975, Neil Young, and Olivia Rodrigo—drew huge crowds and iconic performances. Rodrigo's Pyramid Stage set was so memorable she dropped a live album capturing the vibe of that night, even featuring a magical duet with Robert Smith of The Cure on “Friday I’m In Love” and “Just Like Heaven.”
For a real visual treat, check out this video showcasing the NYC Downlow—the jewel in Block9's crown—capturing the raw energy and atmosphere that defined this part of the festival:
Beyond the electronic euphoria, the 2025 lineup was peppered with memorable sets by Kneecap, Pulp, Charli XCX, CMAT, The Maccabees, Lewis Capaldi, Turnstile, Wolf Alice, and Rod Stewart — a true smorgasbord of musical styles that catered to every corner of the crowd.
Why the Wait? Glastonbury Takes a Fallow Year in 2026
If you're wondering when you can get your next Glastonbury fix, the answer is a bit of patience. 2026 is a fallow year for the iconic festival—a planned break to let the land and the event recharge. The last time this happened was in 2018, with the pandemic forcing cancellations in 2020 and 2021; this fallow year is a tradition designed to preserve the festival’s magic.
The next chance to soak in Glastonbury’s magic will be June 23-27, 2027. Tickets will likely drop in November 2026, but a prize draw was held in September 2025, raising funds for Médecins Sans Frontières and offering a rare opportunity to snag early access.
Casting the Headliner Crystal Ball for 2027
As naturally curious music fans, we’re already buzzing with speculation about the 2027 headliners. Rumors swirl around heavy hitters like Sam Fender, Ed Sheeran, Rihanna, and Little Simz. The lineup could easily shake up the scene, promising yet another unforgettable Worthy Farm weekend.
