Veteran rock legend Rod Stewart is set to make a triumphant return to the Glastonbury Festival, headlining the coveted legends slot in 2025. This marks Stewart's first performance on the festival's iconic Pyramid stage since 2002, as fans eagerly anticipate his Sunday afternoon show at Worthy Farm.
