Glastonbury Festival 2022 🎫

Written by Kylie Connet

After a 2 year hiatus in light of the Covid-19 Pandemic, Glastonbury Festival returned on June 22nd! The legendary festival, which takes place at the dairy farm known as Worthy Farm in Somerset, England, came back for its 50th anniversary with an incredible lineup. With headliners like Billie Eilish, Paul McCartney, Diana Ross, Kendrick Lamar, and a multitude of other talented musicians and bands the shows were so special. We’re here to recap and review our favorite moments of the weekend. 🤩

Firstly, we have to talk about Billie Eilish. She put on a powerful pop performance and was the festival’s youngest headliner in history! Her confidence was shining throughout her whole set. She played songs from both of her albums including “Getting Older,” “Bad Guy,” and “Happier Than Ever.” ✨

Another of our favorite moments was when Lorde debuted her blonde hair! After years of her signature dark locks, the change is so fun and we love it! The New Zealand singer was joined a few songs into her set by tourmates Arlo Parks and Clairo for a rendition of “Stoned At The Nail Salon.” She delivered powerful messages about self-love and fully enraptured the audience. 💗

The phenomenal Paul McCartney played his set on Saturday night to a crowd of over

100,000 fans as the oldest headliner in Glastonbury history at 80 years old.

He performed several Beatles songs including “Let It Be” for the audience who happily sang along. The way that Paul McCartney performs with so much energy and excitement at his age is infectious. He also brought out two very special guests, Dave Grohl and Bruce Springsteen for a special moment with these 3 legendary artists. 🎸

Former Disney actress and now international pop star, Olivia Rodrigo took the stage for an electrifying concert. Her fans jumped and swayed and sang along to all her hits including “drivers license.” It seems like having a surprise guest was the trend of the weekend and Olivia did not disappoint! To the excitement of the entire crowd, she invited Lily Allen on stage to duet the singer’s 2009 single “F— You.” 🥰

Kacey Musgraves took her country sound across the pond for the weekend. In former years, women of country music including Dolly Parton, Carrie Underwood, and Sheryl Crow have performed and we were glad to see that trend continue this year. Kacey’s performance included songs from her latest album Star-Crossed in which she explores her heartbreak. Her set time was during the sunset and she of course played her hit song “Golden Hour” as the sun sank over the crowd. 🤠

Some of our other favorite artists also had great appearances this weekend. Phoebe Bridgers played a captivating set. Charli XCX put on an energetic performance. Megan Thee Stallion, Kendrick Lamar, Sam Fender and so many more also stood out with their stellar shows. We are so happy that Glastonbury Festival is back in full swing and already can’t wait to see what next year will bring! 🎉
