After having to cancel Glasto for the second year running, organiser Emily Eavis turning the festival into a livestream instead. Live At Worthy Farm, which’ll be broadcast in May, will be a five-hour extravaganza featuring performances from the likes of Coldplay, Haim, Michael Kiwanuka, Wolf Alice, Damon Albarn, IDLES, Kano, Jorja Smith and Honey Dijon, plus a host of surprise unannounced appearances. The event will be filmed across Glasto landmarks including the Pyramid Field and the Stone Circle, with the sets linked by a spoken word narrative written and delivered by more special guests. The whole idea is to take viewers on a journey through the festival over the space of five hours, and at least this way there’s no mud involved.
Access to the stream cost £20, with six different timed streams to choose from, and they’ll be the easiest Glasto tickets you’ll ever get.
