Glastonbury tease 2021 alternative: Live at Worthy Farm

Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Glastonbury Festival will be going ahead this year as a special live-streamed event.

Billed as a five-hour spectacular, Live at Worthy Farm will take place tonight (22 May) with encore screenings being broadcast on Sunday (23 May).

The one-of-a-kind festival – which kicks off at 7.00pm – will feature performances from Coldplay (the only band to have headlined Glastonbury four times), Haim, Damon Albarn, Michael Kiwanuka, Wolf Alice, Jorja Smith, Kano and IDLES.

There will also be a number of surprise performances for fans to look forward to.

Live at Worthy Farm will not be broadcast on TV, with tickets for the event currently on sale at worthyfarm.live.

Streams are priced at £20 each. Find out more information on how to purchase tickets here.

Proceeds from Live at Worthy Farm will support the festival’s three chosen charities, Oxfam, Greenpeace and WaterAid, and will also “help secure its return in 2022”.
