In U.K. festival news, Glastonbury is offering a global livestream, access to Reading and Leeds is likely to require a vaccine passport and BST Hyde Park has been cancelled.

Glastonbury’s livestream will take place 5/22 on Worthy Farm, with Coldplay, Damon Albarn, Haim, Michael Kiwanuka and Jorja Smith on the bill. Idles, Kano, Wolf Alice and DJ Honey Dijon will also perform alongside a number of unannounced surprise guests.

The event, shot by Grammy-nominated director Paul Dugdale, will last five hours and will be interspersed by a spoken word narrative, written and delivered by special guests. U.K. livestream business Driift are co-promoters and producers alongside BBC Studios Productions.
