Elton John has been on the Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour since 2018.
Elton John’s long goodbye from music is to conclude in the UK at Glastonbury next June.
Elton is the first headliner to be confirmed for next year’s festival, and will top the Pyramid Stage on Sunday, June 25th.
“We are incredibly excited to announce that the one and only (Elton John) will headline the Pyramid Stage on Sunday night at Glastonbury 2023, for what will be the final UK show of his last ever tour,” the event’s social media announced.
“It gives me enormous pleasure to let you know that the one and only Elton John will be making his first ever Glastonbury appearance, headlining the Pyramid Stage on the Sunday night next year,” Emily Eavis added.
“This will be the final UK show of Elton’s last ever tour, so we will be closing the festival and marking this huge moment in both of our histories with the mother of all send-offs.”
“We are so very happy to finally bring the Rocket Man to Worthy Farm!”
