This year, the BBC will stream Glastonbury’s headline acts by Dua Lipa and Coldplay live on their website.
Usually, only people in the UK can watch extensive coverage of the festival, but now everyone around the world can join in. Dua Lipa’s set is scheduled for Friday, June 28 from 5-6:45 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, while Coldplay will perform on Saturday night from 4:45-6:45 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. You can catch these performances live for free on the BBC website and they will be available to watch on-demand for 10 days after.
Although only Coldplay and Dua Lipa’s sets are streaming live globally, UK viewers can enjoy highlights from other artists on-demand for a short period. SZA is also headlining this year with many others like Charli XCX, LCD Soundsystem, PJ Harvey, Jamie xx, and The National performing too. Shania Twain will take the Sunday afternoon “legends” slot as well. And of course, there’s always that secret act performing Saturday evening at Woodsies stage!
I think it’s really cool how festivals keep surprising us with secret acts.
Coldplay just announced their new album Moon Music, marking their fifth time headlining Glastonbury—breaking The Cure’s record of four times since their last top billing in 2019. Meanwhile, Dua Lipa is making her first-ever appearance on the Pyramid Stage following her latest release Radical Optimism.
