P!nk to Headline Glastonbury 2026—First Female Solo Rock Act to Close Out Pyramid Stage in a Decade!
In a thrilling announcement that has electrified the global music scene, P!nk has officially been confirmed as the headline act for Glastonbury Festival 2026, making her the first female solo rock artist in a decade to close out the iconic Pyramid Stage. The historic news was revealed early Wednesday by Glastonbury co-organizer Emily Eavis, who called the booking a “powerful, overdue, and electrifying return to rock headlining by a woman.”
P!nk, known for her raw vocals, jaw-dropping aerial performances, and chart-topping anthems like “So What,” “Just Like a Pill,” and “What About Us,” is expected to deliver a high-octane finale that blends her signature rebellious energy with a career-spanning setlist. Sources close to the production team suggest that the show will feature massive visual elements, guest appearances, and aerial acrobatics never before seen on the Glastonbury stage.
The last time a female solo rock act closed the Pyramid Stage was in 2016, when PJ Harvey delivered a critically acclaimed performance. Since then, festival lineups have faced criticism for underrepresentation of female headliners, making P!nk’s inclusion not only a celebration of her artistry but a statement of progress in the music industry.
“I’m honored, ecstatic, and ready to tear the sky open with sound,” P!nk said in a press release. “Glastonbury is legendary, and to stand on that stage closing it out—I’m ready to give the show of my life.”
Tickets for Glastonbury 2026 are already in record-breaking demand following the announcement, with fans around the world flooding social media in celebration. Hashtags like #PinkAtGlasto and #Glastonbury2026 began trending globally within minutes.
With P!nk set to make history, this year’s festival promises a headline performance that will be remembered for generations.
