Olivia Rodrigo to headline Glastonbury

With Sir Rod Stewart and Neil Young the only confirmed headline acts for this year’s Glastonbury, fans had feared the legendary music festival could be dominated by ‘wrinkly rockers’.

But organisers have taken note and signed up two much more youthful acts.

Event insiders say they have pulled off a ‘coup’ by signing pop-rock band The 1975, and Disney star turned pop-punk singer Olivia Rodrigo. 

Both are set to perform on the festival’s main Pyramid Stage, with The 1975, fronted by 35-year-old Matty Healy, likely to appear on the Friday night and Ms Rodrigo, 22, on the Sunday night.

Heart Of Gold singer Young, 79, is expected to perform on Saturday while 80-year-old Sir Rod will do the traditional Sunday teatime ‘legends’ slot.

A Glastonbury source suggested there may still be another surprise appearance from a ‘major, major band’ to be announced, but said this would not impact the main stage headliners. source

The 1975 - Olivia Rodrigo - Neil Young would be the most underwhelming set of headliners in a long time

No shade, honestly, but that would be so underwhelming.
