"I'm very happy to announce that I'm going to play at @glastofest 2025! After all these years, I'm proud and ready and more than able to take the stage again for fun and towing my friends in Glastonbury in June. See you there!

Furthermore, Stewart also talked about his performance plans later. During a recent interview with TALKSport, he said performing at Glastonbury was an extraordinary honor.

Stewart is ready to spend a lot of money on his performances later, around 300 thousand pounds (Rp 6 billion), in order to bring all the band members from the United States.

He said festival organizers would not spend money on the plan. However, he had no problem with it.

"But I don't care if it costs 1 million, I will," Stewart said.

"This is an extraordinary honor. It is truly the greatest honor," he added.

Glastonbury itself is known not to pay musicians who perform as big as other festivals. Because they donate most of the money for charity activities. However, the exposure he gave and the continued effects were much greater.

I love what I do, and I do what I love. I'm fit, have thick hair, and can run 100 meters in 18 seconds at the age of 79, "he concluded.
