With Diana Ross scheduled to take to the Pyramid Stage for the coveted legend slot at Glastonbury, the music festival is considering expanding the stage for the first time ever due to the expected popularity.
Organiser Emily Eavis stated: “I can’t think of anyone who won’t go and see Diana Ross. We’ve been waiting a long time for this!”
Though the iconic singer was set to perform at Glastonbury over two years ago the festival has been delayed twice due to COVID-19 with Eavis stating “We were so excited to book such a legend for Glastonbury 2020 and are so happy that she’s the first to re-confirm for next year.”
The Worthy Farm festival will take place in June of this year with the former Supremes lead singer taking to the stage in the Sunday teatime slot.
About Ross’ involvement, the organizers said: “We’re thrilled to confirm that Diana Ross is returning to the UK to give her much-anticipated performance in the legendary Sunday teatime slot on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury 2022, on Sunday June 26th. With an extraordinary career in the spotlight that spans over five decades, the pop-culture icon will bring her timeless music, sparkle and glamour to Worthy Farm.”
