JAKARTA - Emily Eavis, organizer of the Glastonbury Festival, said that one of the world's biggest music festivals is likely to take a break in 2026. That way, this year will be a special show, with next year's title being the last one before being rested.

The daughter of Glastonbury Founder Sir Michael Eavis said an "empt year" needed to be taken considering the festival was held on a farm.

"This 'empt year' is important because it provides rest on the land, and provides an opportunity for the cows to stay outside longer and regain their land," Emily Eavis said during a recent interview with the BBC on the Sidetracked Podcast.

"And in my opinion, it's good enough if you don't look to make a profit," he continued.

Meanwhile, the Glastonbury Festival was first held on the initiation of a livestock entrepreneur, Michael Eavis, on his land in Pilton, Somerset, England in September 1970.

Glastonbury has become the biggest music festival that has succeeded in presenting headliners such as Oasis, Bob Dylan, Radiohead, to Elton John.

This year, Dua Lipa, Coldplay and SZA became headliners. They will appear on the "pistom stage" which became the icon of the Glastonbury Festival.

Emily said this year's event would also be a call for peace, led by show artist Marina Abramovi Badminton, on the main stage of the festival.

"Just a moment of silence for a few minutes, with him on stage. And it will be a beautiful moment."
