Rod Stewart Chosen For Coveted Glastonbury Festival “Legend” Slot

Rod Stewart will play the coveted “Legend” slot at the 2025 Glastonbury festival, joining an impressive roster of previous “legends” – from Paul McCartney and The Rolling Stones to James Brown and David Bowie – who performed at “tea time” on Sunday at the famed British music fest.
“I’m absolutely thrilled to announce that I’ll be playing @glastofest 2025!,” Stewart posted on Instagram (see it below). “After all these years, I’m proud and ready and more than able to take the stage again to pleasure and titillate my friends at Glastonbury in June. I’ll see you there!”
Stewart last played Glastonbury in 2002, headlining with Coldplay and Stereophonics. Today’s news – which makes Stewart the only performer to ever have both headlined the fest and performed in the Legend slot – arrives shortly after the 79-year-old Stewart announced that he will retire from “large-scale world tours” at the end of 2025.
