Rihanna rumoured for Glastonbury 2025 amidst report of huge London Stadium residency
Rihanna could be headlining Glastonbury 2025 after reports emerged of a huge run of London stadium shows in the days following the festival.On Friday, the Telegraph reported that the ‘Umbrella’ star may be planning a six-night residency at the London Stadium, with the first date falling on July 4 – just five days after Glastonbury wraps up this year.The residency is not confirmed, with the Telegraph claiming that a “senior concert industry source” says the shows are at an advanced planning stage, with an announcement expected in the coming weeks.NME has contacted Rihanna’s representatives for a response to the reports.With Glastonbury having only announced one headliner for the 2025 festival so far – Neil Young was confirmed in January – the timing of the rumoured shows is particularly noteworthy.Rihanna has never played at Worthy Farm and has not toured at all since the ‘ANTI’ World Tour, which ran for a total of 75 shows from March to November 2016. The ‘ANTI’ album, released in January that year, remains her most recent studio record.She has, however, long been linked with the festival, and was widely thought to have been booked to headline in 2023, only to be forced to pull out after becoming pregnant and being replaced by Guns N’ Roses.Speculation has been rife for years about the pop superstar’s return to both recording and touring.
