A show previously booked for Paris’s Accor Arena on 25 June will now take place on 21 June. While Glastonbury will supposedly mark John’s final UK show, it won’t be his final show overall – the singer-songwriter’s Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, which began in 2018, will continue through Europe until July 2023. We are so very happy to finally bring the Rocket Man to Worthy Farm.” Glastonbury co-organiser Emily Eavis added: “We will be closing the festival and marking this huge moment in both of our histories with the mother of all send offs. “They have been beyond brilliant, and have supported me through all the highs and lows of my career … I can’t wait to embrace the spirit of the greatest festival in the world.” As the end of my Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour comes into view, there is no more fitting way to say goodbye to my British fans,” John said in a statement.
“I couldn’t be more excited to be headlining the Pyramid stage. The announcement arrives soon after John played his final US show at Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium last month, a fittingly grand affair that featured appearances from Dua Lipa, Kiki Dee and Brandi Carlile and was livestreamed on Disney+.
