US pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo will become the second youngest Glastonbury Festival headliner ever when she takes to the world-famous Pyramid stage this summer.

Glastonbury is one of the biggest and most prestigious festivals in the world, where Worthy Farm in Somerset welcomes more than 200,000 people to watch music, dance, comedy and other performance artists.

Rodrigo, who is 22, will close the festival's biggest stage on the Sunday night.

Billie Eilish was the youngest headliner at 20 years old when she performed in 2022.

British pop-rock band, The 1975, will be the Friday night headliners and veteran rocker Neil Young will perform on the Saturday night with his band, The Chrome Hearts.

The 1975 have topped the bill at many festivals but this will be their first Glastonbury headline slot.

It was also announced that Charlie XCX - who won five awards at the Brits last week - will perform tracks from her hugely popular dance album, Brat, on The Other Stage.

Olivia Rodrigo will have a busy June, headlining the British Summer Time festival in London's Hyde Park two days before Glastonbury.

But she is no stranger to performing to huge crowds - she played to over 1.4 million fans during the 95 shows of her Guts World Tour in 2024.

Other artists performing across the weekend will be Raye, Ezra Collective, Noah Kahan, Djo (known to many as Stranger Things star Joe Keery) and Gracie Abrahams.
