Vodafone launches official Glastonbury Festival app with new easy way to find your mates and step count
FESTIVAL season is nearly here – and just in time, Vodafone has dropped the all-new Official Glastonbury Festival App for 2025.
Whether you’re dancing at the Pyramid Stage, grabbing a bite, or chasing a secret set at the Woodsies, this year’s app is going to be the ultimate digital companion for Glastonbury.
The 2025 app is packed with exciting upgrades, led by the introduction of live location sharing – perfect for finding your friends in the crowd when you’re gearing up for a huge headline moment.
This year’s headliners include The 1975, Neil Young and Olivia Rodrigo, while the rest of the bill features big-name acts such as Charli XCX, Doechii, Rod Stewart, Loyle Carner, The Prodigy and Raye.
Some performance slots are listed as ‘TBA’ – sparking speculation about who might appear.
Rumoured names range from Haim and Pulp to Lady Gaga and Radiohead.
Glastonbury 2025 - confirmed acts so far

Another exciting new feature is the addition of step count to the popular ‘My Highlights’ post-Festival wrap, which lets fans compare with their mates to see who’s covered the most ground or spent the most time on the dancefloor.
But this isn’t just about tracking steps – it’s about making them count.
Vodafone will match the average number of steps Festival-goers take each day with donations through its everyone.connected programme – up to 75,000 connections.
These donations include data, devices and digital skills for people across the UK who need it most, supporting Vodafone’s mission to close the digital divide.
That’s in addition to the 75,000 connections already donated through the Glastonbury partnership – delivering an estimated £4.5m in social value.
Shared Line-ups now update automatically, so you can see what your mates are planning and make last-minute switches.
You can use ‘Add to Favourites’ to create your shortlist of must-sees as well as and improved map search.
Plus, all the fan-favourite features from 2024 return: personalised artist recommendations via Spotify, map pinning and alerts when set times clash.
Their Connect & Charge tent – near the Pyramid Stage, Glade and Other Stage – will offer free charging and WiFi to keep your phone powered and your group chat buzzing.
Maria Koutsoudakis, Chief Brand Officer, Vodafone UK, said:
“We know the app plays a big role in the Festival experience so, this year, we have gone even further to ensure that fans can connect with their friends or family and get as much out of Glastonbury as possible.
“Combined with us delivering the most Vodafone network capacity ever on-site, these new features will help festival goers always be connected no matter where they are across the site.”
“We’re delighted to be able to use these features to reward both fans and communities across the UK, by tying the new step count feature to our everyone.connected campaign.”
The Official Glastonbury Festival App, powered by Vodafone – The Nation’s Network – is now available on the Apple Store and Google Play Store.
