'We're trying our best,' says organiser as she unveils first 54 names on 2023 lineup and calls on music industry to develop headline-worthy female acts.

Three months out, Eavis said her main hope was that “people will come and experience the joy that it brings to so many. Last year, Eavis’s family took in two Ukrainian sisters, who loved the festival: “Veronika ended up doing loads of translation and Nadya was raving.” While Veronika has returned to Kyiv, “Nadya met a guy locally and has moved in with him.” “We’ve had 20 years of John Peel and it’s been an honour to use his name.” “I haven’t got involved in that because it’s not our area,” said Eavis. “That is not a conversation we’re having at the moment,” said Eavis, but added that Melanie C would perform solo. “We put it up [by] the minimum we could,” said Eavis. “There is a degree of flexibility this year,” she said. “They wanted to savour every moment after two years away,” she said. “She could totally headline,” said Eavis, adding that the Pyramid stage often sees bigger crowds in the afternoon than at night. The festival is working with food vendors on affordable options, as well as tackling the issue of confectionary wrappers, having previously banned single-use plastic and crisps in non-compostable packets. Eavis said that as a woman in the music industry she saw the matter as a personal issue, recalling the days where there was only one woman working as a live booking agent. Fans had anticipated Taylor Swift, who was due to headline Glastonbury 2020 prior to its cancellation as a result of Covid – but the US leg of her Eras tour this summer obviated the possibility.

She added that Lizzo “could totally headline” although the slot had already been promised to someone else. It comes as Eavis addresses the issue of a line-up of all-male headliners for this year’s festival.

That’s the amount that costs have gone up.” The festival costs £50m to run. John will close the festival on the Sunday. There was also a response to the hiked ticket prices, which led to criticism from potential festivalgoers. Eavis also acknowledged that, in 2023, there were multiple staging errors, which led to overcrowding. Eavis also announced the first wave of acts set to perform at Glastonbury. However, she confirmed that Mel C would play a solo set after a successful appearance in 2022.

There were a range of accommodation options to go for: from campervan and caravan tickets (£150 for a regular pitch and £250 for oversized vehicles) to the Glastonbury Bell Tent (approximately £875 for up to five people) there was something for every kind of camper.
