It’s official – Sir Elton John is headlining Glastonbury 2023.
On Friday, it was announced the Tiny Dancer legend, 75, will bring the UK leg of his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour – his final run of shows – to an end with a huge headline slot at Worthy Farm.
Tickets for the iconic festival went on sale in November, with countless fans left frustrated as the event sold out after just an hour, even with some technical difficulties at the time.
However, all hope’s not lost, and you might still be in with a chance of seeing Sir Elton take to the stage one last time.
Reflecting on the exciting news, the Rocketman star said in a statement: ‘As the end of my Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour comes into view, there is no more fitting way to say goodbye to my British fans.
‘They have been beyond brilliant, and have supported me through all the highs and lows of my career.’

At the moment, the answer is no – the tickets went on sale early last month, and as ever got snapped up sharpish, while people struggled with various technical troubles and crashes throughout the process.
Glastonbury’s official account posted just after 10am on Sunday, November 6 that tickets for Glastonbury had sold out on a morning when ‘demand far exceeded supply’.
That said…

When they went on sale last month, it came to £350 plus a £5 booking fee for standard tickets, with £50 as a deposit and the balance due by the first week of April.
This year’s event held in June cost £280 plus a £5 booking fee following a £15 increase after the original 2020 date was cancelled.
When is Glastonbury 2023?
The annual festival will return to Worthy Farm in Somerset from June 21 to 25 2023, it was previously confirmed.
Sir Elton will headline the Pyramid Stage on the Sunday night, which means he’ll be bringing both the festival and the UK stint of his final tour to a close with one epic show.
Organiser Emily Eavis said: ‘It gives me enormous pleasure to let you know that the one and only Elton John will be making his first-ever Glastonbury appearance, headlining the Pyramid Stage on the Sunday night next year.
‘This will be the final UK show of Elton’s last-ever tour, so we will be closing the Festival and marking this huge moment in both of our histories with the mother of all send offs.’
