Jessie Ware self-confirms for Glastonbury 2021

The London-based singer-songwriter will “100%” be returning to Worthy Farm

Jessie Ware has become the first major artist to confirm a performance at Glastonbury 2021.

Ware announced the news on the latest episode of her hit podcast ‘Table Manners’ earlier today (June 24) – which featured special guest, Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis.

Replying to a question posed Eavis during the podcast chat on whether she would want to return to play Glastonbury “next year” – Ware replied: “Absolutely, one hundred per cent. I was like there, watching my opportunity to play this album pass me by […] I’m coming, I will absolutely be there, with bells on!”

Ware’s new album ‘What’s Your Pleasure’ is out later this week, and she was due to bring the house-focused record to Glastonbury’s dance area over the weekend.

You can listen to the confirmation below, and check out the latest episode of Table Manners in full, here.

Meanwhile, Basil Brush – which some would argue is as “major” as it gets has – has also self-confirmed for Glastonbury earlier this month.

Glastonbury 2021 will take place at its natural home in Worthy Farm, Pilton, Somerset – from Wednesday 23th to Sunday 27th June.
