OLIVIA Rodrigo is ‘set to headline Glastonbury’, with bookies halting bets from punters.
Huge US singer Olivia, 21, has only just announced new Manchester’s Co-op Live Arena dates that immediately follow on from the festival.
Now, bookmakers Betfred have stopped taking bets on the Driver’s License songstress headlining the iconic festival.
Digital Outreach Manager Robert Ford said: “After the announcement of her new Co-op Live Arena gigs, we have decided to suspend betting on Olivia Rodrigo headlining Glastonbury 2025.
“Her announcement has prompted a flurry of bets earlier today and her new dates for Co-op Live perfectly align with her being in the UK for Glastonbury in the final week of June.
“Rodrigo was amongst the favourites initially, with her priced at 11/8 to headline the festival before betting was suspended.”
It comes after The Sun revealed the One Direction singer had been approached by festival organiser Emily Eavis about headlining the Pyramid Stage at Worthy Farm.
The Sign Of The Times hitmaker has never played at Glastonbury, but our mole reckons he would be their dream booking.
A source said: “Harry would be the perfect Glastonbury headliner and Emily has long wanted him on stage at Worthy Farm, but the dates have never quite worked out.”
The timing could not be better for Harry, who is believed to have been quietly working on his fourth studio album.
His last record, Harry’s House, came out two years ago and was a worldwide smash — going straight to the top of the UK charts, where it stayed for six weeks. Harry took the album on tour and, over 22 months, played to millions of fans across the world before finishing in Italy in July last year.
Now he’s had a break, all the signs are pointing to a big comeback in 2025.
Our insider said: “Harry would be an incredible act to watch on the Pyramid Stage. Glastonbury has a fallow year in 2026, so booking Harry for next year would be perfect.
“It is something the team at Glastonbury are pushing for. Whether that dream will come true, however, is still to be decided by Harry’s team.”
And with Cher also in advanced talks to play the Legends slot at Glasto, Emily appears to be knocking it out of the park with her targets.
