Excitement is building as Glastonbury Festival 2024 draws near, with music fans eagerly anticipating a weekend filled with iconic performances. Among the highlight acts, Sir Rod Stewart will take to the Pyramid Stage on Sunday, June 29, for the prestigious legends slot—and he’s bringing a very special guest along.
Rod Stewart has revealed that Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood will be joining him for this highly anticipated set. The two longtime collaborators and friends first played together in 1967 as part of The Jeff Beck Group and later as members of The Faces from 1969. Their enduring musical partnership and friendship promise a memorable performance for fans at Worthy Farm.
Stewart shared this news during an appearance on The Peter Crouch Podcast, where he mentioned their recent rehearsals in preparation for Glastonbury. The legends slot has previously showcased legendary artists such as Dolly Parton, Kylie Minogue, Diana Ross, and Shania Twain, making Stewart’s inclusion an exciting addition to the lineup.

The festival, taking place from June 25 to 29, also features headliners like Olivia Rodrigo, Neil Young, and The 1975, with performances from Charli XCX, Biffy Clyro, Alanis Morissette, Wolf Alice, Wet Leg, and others. Tickets for this iconic event sold out rapidly, reflecting Glastonbury’s status as one of the world’s premier music festivals.
After the festival’s traditional “fallow year” hiatus in 2018 and two pandemic-related cancellations in 2020 and 2021, the 2024 edition is poised to deliver a vibrant and unforgettable experience. Organizers have indicated the next fallow year will be in 2026, making this summer’s festival particularly special for attendees.
With Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood sharing the stage once again, this year’s legends slot promises to be a standout moment in Glastonbury’s storied history.
