Kendrick Lamar and Paul McCartney are the final headliners to be announced for this year’s Glastonbury festival, joining Billie Eilish. Macca heads to Worthy Farm on Saturday, June 25, not long after wrapping his U.S. jaunt, with Kendrick closing the stalwart British fest’s Pyramid Stage on the Sunday.
Other names in the announcement include Olivia Rodrigo, Lorde, Megan Thee Stallion, Kacey Musgraves, Big Thief, Haim, Charli XCX, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, Pet Shop Boys, Foals, and St. Vincent. Check out the bill so far, which also includes the previously announced Diana Ross, below. Many more acts for the sold-out festival will be announced in the coming months.
Between Eilish and Macca, Glasto will be hosting its youngest and oldest ever headliners, The Guardian notes.
