This was the first in-person festival since 2019 with the previous two editions being cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, known as enforced "fallow" years.
Background
Following the conclusion of the 2019 Glastonbury Festival on 30 June 2019, it was announced that plans were underway for the 2020 Festival, which would celebrate Glastonbury's 50th anniversary. Headliners Paul McCartney, Kendrick Lamar and Taylor Swift, along with Diana Ross in the Legend's slot, were announced alongside a host of other acts. However, as the COVID-19 pandemic began to worsen, the ability for the festival to go ahead was put into doubt. Emily Eavis stated in an interview on 12 March 2020, that she was hopeful that the festival would not be cancelled but just six days later on 18 March 2020, 5 days prior to the first UK COVID-19 lockdown, Glastonbury officially announced that the 2020 edition which was due to celebrate its 50th anniversary would be cancelled.[3][4] As a replacement to the festival, Worthy Farm recorded several short sets with artists in a COVID-safe environment and broadcast them together as a film titled Live from Worthy Farm which streamed on both the Glastonbury website and BBC Two.[5] Due to continued uncertainty around the pandemic, the 2021 Glastonbury Festival was also cancelled.[6]
In October 2021, Billie Eilish was announced as one of the 2022 headliners, replacing Swift and becoming the youngest headliner in the festival's history.[7] The first wave of the line-up was announced on 4 March 2022, revealing that McCartney, Lamar and Ross would still be performing in their previously confirmed roles.[8] The rest of the line-up was released on 30 May 2022.[9][10][11]
Tickets
General admission tickets for the festival cost £280 for the full weekend and sold out.[12]
Weather
The weather was around 20 °C on 22 June the first day of the festival with some light rain on the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday with peak temperatures of 18 to 20 °C.[13]
