Glastonbury Confirm Madonna Will Not Headline in 2027

Eavis said Glastonbury has already booked three 2027 headliners and dismissed months of speculation that Madonna would make her debut.

  • Glastonbury Festival organizer Emily Eavis ruled out Madonna for the 2027 festival, telling BBC Radio 4's PM programme, "No, it's definitely not Madonna, I'll tell you that."
  • Speculation intensified after Madonna told Graham Norton she had "something bigger" planned for summer 2027, with rumours aided by comments she made in June regarding her plans.
  • Addressing the rumours, Eavis noted that "pretty much 95% of the stories" about Glastonbury are false, adding, "we've got our headliners and we're cracking on."
  • Reports suggest Madonna could perform a record-breaking three-night stint at London's Hyde Park instead, while Glastonbury organizers are tipped to book Harry Styles and Sam Fender for 2027.
  • Returning in June 2027 after a fallow year, Glastonbury Festival will restore its cultural significance as Eavis said she hopes Andy Burnham will "recognise the arts and music as being a huge asset to Britain.
