November 11th 2024.
Olivia Rodrigo, the talented singer and songwriter, has recently made an exciting announcement that has fans in the UK buzzing with anticipation. She will be headlining the BST Hyde Park festival in 2025, which conveniently coincides with the same weekend as the popular Glastonbury festival. This news comes as a surprise to many, especially since Olivia is currently taking a break from her Guts World Tour after wrapping up a series of successful shows in Australia.
Olivia's rise to fame has been nothing short of incredible. With two highly acclaimed albums under her belt, she has already won three Grammys, achieved three number-one hits, and had 14 songs on the charts. Her music has captivated audiences all over the world, with over 2.3 million monthly listeners. Unfortunately, earlier this year, Olivia had to cancel her concerts in Manchester, but she is thrilled to be returning to the UK in June for her headlining performance at BST Hyde Park, as well as some gigs at Co-op Live.
If you're wondering how to get tickets to see Olivia at BST, look no further. The 'Good For You' singer has just announced that tickets will be available through Ticketmaster and AXS. She will be taking the stage on Friday, June 27, with special guests Girl in Red and The Last Dinner Party. However, some fans may be questioning the timing of this show, as it falls on the same day as the rumored opening night headline slot at Glastonbury 2025. But fear not, as there is still a chance for Olivia to make an appearance at the iconic festival on Saturday or Sunday, as Glastonbury organizers are actively seeking more high-profile female performers to headline the event.
In fact, in its 54-year history, Glastonbury has only had eight female headliners, with Taylor Swift being the most recent addition in 2020 (although that year's festival was unfortunately canceled). This year, Dua Lipa took the Friday headline slot to great success, but Sunday's closing performance by SZA fell a bit flat. With Olivia's growing star power and her free schedule on both festival days, it's unlikely that organizers would want a repeat of a lackluster ending, especially since the festival is taking a break in 2026.
Olivia is no stranger to Glastonbury, having played on the Other Stage two years ago and delivering an unforgettable moment when she brought out Lily Allen as a surprise guest. Since then, her popularity has only skyrocketed, making her a highly sought-after headliner for music festivals. She joins an impressive lineup at BST Hyde Park, which also includes Jeff Lynne’s ELO, Zach Bryan, Hugh Jackman, and Noah Kahan. Tickets for Olivia's performance at BST will go on sale on Friday, November 15 at 9am GMT.
