“The official TikTok for Glastonbury Festival”
Glastonbury Festival has launched a new, official TikTok account.
Announcing the news via their official Twitter account the morning (Wednesday, 27 April), the Festival said: “We now have an official TikTok account” – accompanied by a link to the new page, which can be found here.
The latest video posted to the account (which you can view below), includes a brief history of the Festival’s iconic Pyramid Stage.

Meanwhile, 2022 will be Glastonbury’s first festival since 2019, after two consecutive cancellations due to the coronavirus crisis – both in 2020 and 2021.
As it stands, Field of Avalon, Silver Hayes, Glasto Latino and most recently the Theatre & Circus Fields are the first areas to have revealed their line-up posters ahead of this year’s event, following Glastonbury’s first main line-up announcement poster revelation which dropped earlier this year.
It has been confirmed that Paul McCartney and Kendrick Lamar will be joining previously announced headliner Billie Eilish to top the bill at this year’s event.
Eilish will be playing the Pyramid Stage on the Friday night – and by doing so make history as the youngest ever solo artist to headline the Festival at only 20-years-old.
Another historic moment will occur when Sir Paul McCartney takes to the Pyramid Stage on the Saturday night – which will subsequently make him the oldest Glastonbury headliner at 80-years-old.
Diana Ross will likewise be performing on the Pyramid Stage for the Sunday Teatime Legends Slot, while Lamar will be headlining the same stage later that evening.
Lots more performers and attractions have still yet to be announced and are waiting in the pipeline to be revealed before the full line-up + times should finally drop around June time – as recently confirmed by Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis.
That said, there are many artists who confirm themselves prior to the official announcements by divulging the news during interviews, via social media or website listings.
Some of the recent artists to self-confirm for Glastonubry 2022 include Fatboy Slim, Chris Difford, Carl Cox, Haim, Courtney Barnett, Glastonbury-staple Craig Charles and Black Dyke Band – who said they will be opening the Pyramid Stage on Sunday morning (26 June).
Other acts who have been rumoured to make an appearance at this year’s event include Candi Stanton, Brass Against, The Chemical Brothers, Basil Brush, The 1975, Harry Styles and The Lathums.

Glastonbury 2022 is set to take place at its natural home in Worthy Farm, Pilton, Somerset, from Wednesday 22nd to Sunday 26th June.
Although tickets for the 2022 Festival have now completely sold out, there are still ways to go to Glasto this summer.
Some of the opportunities include entering competitions, working at the Festival and volunteering.
DON’T BE FOOLED:
Glastonbury Festival would very much like fans to be aware that there are people out there who will try and sell fake Glastonbury tickets to unsuspecting, willing and innocent potential purchasers.
Although Glasto-veterans who have been going to the Festival for quite some time may recognise these scams for what they are, newcomers to the Festival might not know that tickets are only sold on one site which is: glastonbury.seetickets.com – and any other site claiming to sell tickets for the Festival are not authentic.
