Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis has said she is “already in talks with some acts” for next year’s festival. The last day of the Somerset festival will see a headline performance from R&B act SZA, with Canadian pop star Shania Twain filling the coveted Legends slot. Speaking to the Glastonbury Free Press, the festival’s resident newspaper, Eavis said: “We’re taking a fallow year in 2026 to give the land a rest, and the festival before a fallow year is always a fun one to plan because you almost have to fit two years into one.
Eavis also said Twain, 58, has “really embraced” the spirit of the festival. “I think that’s part of the reason the anticipation for her show is so wild”, she added. The Man! I Feel Like A Woman! singer will make her debut on the Pyramid Stage at Worthy Farm in the afternoon.
