And we’re back! After a prolonged absence, Glastonbury Festival kicked off yesterday (June 22) welcoming punters back to Worthy Farm for the first time since 2019. This year’s headliners Billie Eilish, Paul McCartney and Kendrick Lamar will entertain the 200,000 punters who made the trip to Somerset, alongside Sam Fender, Olivia Rodrigo, Megan Thee Stallion, and many, many more.
