June 25th 2024.
The music world is buzzing with excitement as Newton Faulkner has just announced a surprise performance at the highly anticipated Glastonbury Festival in 2024. The 39-year-old folk rocker, known for his hit song "Dream Catch Me", was pleasantly surprised when he found out that he had secured a prime Saturday slot at the festival. It was just this week that he got the news, and he couldn't wait to share it with his fans.
Taking to social media, Newton made the big reveal, saying, "If you had asked me last week if I was playing at Glastonbury, I would have sadly said no. But now, I can proudly say HELL YEAH, I'll be performing on Saturday from 21:40-22:40 on the Avalon stage! See you there, @FieldOfAvalon." This won't be Newton's first time at Glastonbury, as he has performed at the festival multiple times in the past.
However, there is one slight downside to Newton's exciting announcement – his set on Saturday night clashes with Coldplay's performance on the Pyramid Stage. But with other amazing acts like Dua Lipa and SZA also headlining, there's no doubt that Glastonbury 2024 will be a weekend to remember.
The festival kicks off on Wednesday, June 26, with DJ sets and performances by lesser-known artists, leading up to the main acts on Friday. Dua Lipa will take the stage on Friday, followed by Coldplay on Saturday and SZA on Sunday. For those who were unable to secure a ticket, fear not – the BBC will be broadcasting much of the festival, with Dua Lipa and Coldplay's sets available for livestream globally for the first time ever.
Last year, the Foo Fighters surprised everyone with an electric set under the name "The Churnups". So, who knows which music legend(s) will grace the stage this year. As for the line-up, there are still a few slots to be announced, with speculation that it could be filled by big names like Kings of Leon, Kasabian, The XX, or The Killers. Other rumored acts include Blue, Glass Animals, Liam Gallagher, Tame Impala, Placebo, Pulp, and Weezer. These surprise slots have previously been filled by icons such as Lady Gaga and Harry Styles, so it's safe to say that fans will flock to these stages regardless of who's performing.
Aside from the exciting performances, festival-goers can also look forward to a dry weekend with a mix of sun and clouds, and temperatures in the low to mid 20s. Glastonbury Festival will take place at Worthy Farm from Wednesday, June 26 to Sunday, June 30.
