The third and final headliner for Glastonbury has now been announced. Neil Young will be joining Blur and Bruce Springsteen to headline the legendary festival.

Festival sponsors, The Guardian newspaper, were given the news earlier today by Glastonbury organisers. Micheal Eavis is delighted by Neil’s contribution to the festival and has described the inclusion of the 63 year old a “dream come true“. Micheal Eavis also said: “We give it a go and every year people come to the festival and ask the same question: When is Neil Young playing? So this is big news for us. I’ve seen him play many times over the years but I think he’s better than ever at the moment, it’s one hell of a show.”

This announcement ends months of speculation that Neil Young will be headlining the festival.

Neil Young has had an incredible career and he’s worked on over 60 albums as both a solo artists and a band member. Neil Young’s first solo number one came in 1972 when he dominated the charts with ‘Harvest’.

Tickets for Glastonbury Festival have already sold out but a small and very limited number of tickets will be released on April 5th. Tickets are priced at £175 (plus booking fee).
