Sir Rod Stewart has delighted spectators with an ‘iconic’ performance at the Glastonbury Festival.<\/p>\n
The music superstar, 80, took over the Pyramid Stage on Sunday afternoon (June 29) in the important Legends slot and was joined by a string of special guests.<\/p>\n
He emerged on stage to the sound of Scotland the Brave on bagpipes in a sweet nod to his Scottish roots.<\/p>\n
Sir Rod then belted out a long list of his hits, including Baby Jane, Do Ya Think I’m Sexy, and Maggie May, plus many more, to a massive crowd.<\/p>\n
His wife, Penny Lancaster, could be seen supporting Sir Rod as she watched the performance from backstage.<\/p>\n
During the set, there was a poignant tribute to Fleetwood Mac star Christine McVie, who died in November 2022. Sir Rod remembered the musician at Glastonbury and projected her face on the big screen.<\/p>\n But there was more surprises as Sir Rod welcomed Mick Hucknall, Ronnie Wood and Lulu on stage to join in with his glittering set.<\/p>\n Sir Rod performed with Mick Hucknall for a duet on If You Don’t Know Me By Now, Ronnie Wood for Stay With Me and Lulu for Hot Legs.<\/p>\n The stars set ended with Sailing, the mega-ballad that took Sir Rod to the top of the charts in 1976, while his backing singers pulled on sailors’ caps.<\/p>\n Glastonbury fans wasted no time in flooding social media with praise for Sir Rod’s performance, with some calling it ‘one of the best’.<\/p>\n Taking to X, one person stated: “Rod Stewart is the class act. Ain’t nobody can top him now #Glastonbury.”<\/p>\n A second explained: “I’m a massive fan of the legends slot…and I Just watch Rod Stewart…and he’s absolutely smashed it and taken it to the next level, up there with one of the best Glasto performances I’ve ever seen #Glastonbury #Glastonbury2025.”<\/p>\n A third chimed in: “Rod Stewart reminding everyone what #Glastonbury should be about. A proper rock star with great music ripping it up. #legend.”<\/p>\n “There’s a reason it’s called the Legends slot, let Sir Rod the one the only explain it for ya @rodstewart @ronniewood Lulu and Mick Hucknall awesome set, one big party, backing singers + musicians were fantastic. Missed it watch the replay on iPlayer”, added another.<\/p>\n “Thank God for Rod Stewart!! #Glastonbury #Glastonbury2025”, exclaimed one fan.<\/p>\n You watch catch-up on Rod Stewart’s performance at Glastonbury on BBC iPlayer<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sir Rod Stewart gave a set to remember at Glastonbury Festival Sunday as he performed during the iconic…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":225256,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8818],"tags":[192,381,748,393,2709,4884,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-225255","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-bristol","8":"tag-bbc","9":"tag-bristol","10":"tag-britain","11":"tag-england","12":"tag-glastonbury-festival","13":"tag-great-britain","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114769420969020902","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225255","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=225255"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225255\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/225256"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=225255"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=225255"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=225255"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Rod](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1_Glastonbury-Festival-2025.jpg\")
