SEVENTEEN : Takes the Main Stage at the Glastonbury Festival

SEVENTEEN will be making its British debut this summer, gracing the stage at the “Glastonbury Festival“.

SEVENTEEN (composed of S.Coups, Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, The8, Mingyu, DK, Seungkwan, Vernon, and Dino) will be making history as the first K-pop group to perform on the main stage of the prestigious British music festival “Glastonbury Festival“.

According to its  agency, Pledis Entertainment, SEVENTEEN will be performing on the main stage, known as the “Pyramid Stage”, from June 26th to June 30rd at Worthy Farm in Somerset, England. This will mark the first time a K-pop group performs on the iconic stage at the “Glastonbury Festival“.

The “Glastonbury Festival” is the largest music festival in the United Kingdom, bringing together musicians from various genres such as rock, pop, jazz, and electronic on what is often referred to as a “dream stage.” This year’s lineup for the “Glastonbury Festival” includes SEVENTEEN along with artists such as Dua Lipa, Coldplay, SZA, Shania Twain, LCD Soundsystem, Little Simz, and Burna Boy.

The announcement of SEVENTEEN‘s participation in several major European music festivals has garnered attention from fans worldwide. Even before the announcement of its participation in the “Glastonbury Festival“, SEVENTEEN was invited as the headliner for “Lollapalooza Berlin“, taking place on September 7th and 8th at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany. With album sales exceeding 16 million in South Korea and Japan last year, SEVENTEEN, regarded as the top K-pop group, is eagerly anticipated for its performance on the global stage.

In the meantime, SEVENTEEN is gearing up for its encore tour, “SEVENTEEN TOUR ‘FOLLOW’ AGAIN“, in giant stadiums in Korea and Japan. This tour will include eight concerts in four cities, starting at the Incheon Asia Main Stadium on March 30th and 31st, followed by the Seoul World Cup Stadium on April 27th and 28th, the Yanmar Stadium Nagai in Osaka on May 18th and 19th, and finally the Nissan Stadium in Kanagawa on May 25th and 26th.
