Glastonbury festival organiser Emily Eavis has moved to quash speculation that Madonna will headline the event in 2027. The rumour, which had been circulating among fans and media outlets, was swiftly dismissed by Eavis, who stated that Madonna is "definitely not" among the festival's headliners for the upcoming year. This clarification comes as no surprise, given that the festival's lineup is typically announced much closer to the event.
The Glastonbury Festival is one of the most high-profile music events in the world, attracting hundreds of thousands of attendees each year. As such, the headlining acts are always a major talking point, with fans eagerly anticipating the announcement of the biggest names. In recent years, the festival has featured a diverse range of headliners, including Billie Eilish, Paul McCartney, and The Killers. With the 2027 lineup yet to be officially announced, fans will have to wait and see who will take to the stage.
Looking ahead, music fans will be keeping a close eye on Glastonbury's social media channels and official announcements for the 2027 lineup. With the festival's history of showcasing both established and emerging talent, it's likely that the headliners will be a major draw for attendees. As for Madonna, while she may not be headlining Glastonbury in 2027, fans can still look forward to seeing her perform at other events and venues in the coming years.
