After it was reported a string of the world’s biggest male stars have been signed up for next year’s Glastonbury festival, it’s now been revealed Chappell Roan, Olivia Rodrigo and Charli XCX are said to be set to play the festival.
The three huge female acts have reportedly been lined up after it was revealed all-male acts had been lined up for the Worthy Farm festival next year, including The 1975, Stevie Wonder, Neil Young and Sir Rod Stewart.
A source told The Sun about the latest apparent headline bookings: “Chappell Roan, Olivia Rodrigo and Charli XCX will all play Glastonbury next summer.
“Charli will headline The Other Stage and Chappell will be playing the Pyramid Stage.
“Olivia is coming straight to Worthy Farm after playing BST Hyde Park, so her slot is being firmed up.”
The insider added organiser Emily Eavis wanted to balance the bill’s rock ’n’ rollers with some of the world’s biggest female stars.
They said: “Emily really wanted Glastonbury to go back to its rock roots but by bringing in three of the world’s biggest female stars to play too, she is making a real statement.
“Glastonbury always has something for everyone but next summer’s line-up is really impressive in terms of the spectrum of acts and how big they are.”
The Sun had reported talks to book Stevie broke down last year at the last minute, but he now looks set to appear on the official Glastonbury bill next summer.
Sir Rod Stewart has confirmed he will play the coveted Sunday Legends slot at the 2025 festival – despite revealing it is going to cost him at least $300,000 to put on his show, including bringing his band from America.
He told talkSport: “It’s a great honour – it’s going to cost me a fortune to do it – $300,0000.
“I’ve got to bring all my band back from America – of course, Glastonbury don’t pay for that.
“But I don’t care if it cost me $1 million, I would have done it.
“It’s a great honour. It really is the greatest honour.”
