Glastonbury 2021 – Live at Worthy Farm: How to watch and who is performing?
Glastonbury Festival has been cancelled for a second year in a row due to the coronavirus pandemic and is instead taking place this year as virtual event Live at Worthy Farm.
A whopping 200,000 people usually descend on the site in Pilton, Somerset but large gatherings of people have been put on hold in a bid to stop the spread of Covid-19.
However, music fans can still enjoy a live stream from the comfort of their own home on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 of May.
Filmed across Worthy Farm, familiar landmarks such as the Pyramid Field and Stone Circle will be visible as acts take to the stage, and the event will support Glastonbury’s three main charitable partners; Oxfam, Greenpeace and WaterAid, as well as helping to secure the festival’s return in 2022.
Emily Eavis said: ‘After two Glastonbury cancellations, it brings us great pleasure to announce our online live stream, which will present live music performances filmed across Worthy Farm at landmarks including the Pyramid and, for the first time ever, the Stone Circle.
‘It will feature a rolling cast of artists and performers who have all given us enormous support by agreeing to take part in this event, showing the farm as you have never seen it.’
