Over 90 hours of television and radio coverage of the festival was broadcast. The main television coverage was hosted by Jo Whiley, Lauren Laverne, Jack Saunders, and Clara Amfo, with additional online-only coverage from Huw Stephens and Deb Grant, and aired on BBC iPlayer and several BBC channels, including the newly-created "Glastonbury II" channel in addition to livestreams from each of the five main stages. For the second year in a row, a British Sign Language stream was available for all Pyramid Stage sets. Radio coverage was broadcast on BBC Sounds and all major BBC radio stations, and was preceded by special Glastonbury editions of the Sidetracked podcast hosted by Nick Grimshaw and Annie Mac which featured interviews with Twain, Emily Eavis, and Mike Skinner. Other digital content included special interviews with Coldplay and Dua Lipa discussing their Glastonbury memories, Glastonbury documentaries, and highlights from previous years of the festival.^[1]

Background

The first teases of the 2024 line-up came in October 2023 prior to the ticket sale, when festival organizer Emily Eavis confirmed that the Legends slot performer was a female artist, and hinted that there could be two female headliners, after she had initially booked a female artist for the 2023 festival who pulled out and had to be replaced by Guns N' Roses.^[2] She reiterated this on 7 March 2024 and teased that the first slate of artists would be released the following week.^[3]

An initial wave of performers, including all three headliners, was announced on 14 March 2024, on a poster designed by Stanley Donwood. With their Saturday headlining set, Coldplay become the first act to headline the festival five times, having previously done so in 2002, 2005, 2011, and 2016, while Dua Lipa headlines for the first time after appearing at two previous festivals in 2016 and 2017. American R&B singer-songwriter SZA makes her Glastonbury debut with her headlining slot. Canadian country pop superstar Shania Twain stated that her Legends slot booking “feels like an accolade of sorts, really something that you have to earn – it’s just very rewarding”.^[4] The 2024 festival marks the first time in Glastonbury's history that two of the three Pyramid Stage headliners are women, with Lipa posting “I have dreamt of this moment all my life. Something that lived only in my wildest dreams and highest manifestations !!! I am so excited to see you all in my favourite place on earth and make it a night to remember!!”^[5] Boy band Seventeen also make history as the first K-pop act to ever perform on the Pyramid Stage.^[6][7]

On 10 April, Lulu announced that she would be performing her final ever concert on the Avalon stage.^[8] The lineup for the Acoustic stage was revealed on 12 April 2024.^[9]

The full line-up for the 2024 festival was released on 4 June 2024.^[10][11]

Tickets

General admission tickets for the festival went on sale on 19 November 2023. They cost £355 for the full weekend, and sold out within an hour.^[12]
