Fresh off celebrating her 30th birthday at Jingle Ball<\/a>, Taylor Swift<\/a> announced Sunday that she has booked a headlining slot at the 2020 Glastonbury<\/a> Festival.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Lover<\/em> singer will make her Glastonbury debut by filling the prestigious Sunday night slot at the U.K. festival, which is marking its 50th anniversary in 2020. Swift joins previously announced Saturday headliner Paul McCartney and Diana Ross, who will perform before Swift Sunday in the \u201cLegends\u201d slot.<\/span><\/p>\n

Emily Eavis added, \u201cTaylor is one of the biggest and best artists on the planet, and we\u2019re just so pleased that she\u2019s coming here to Worthy Farm to join us for our 50th birthday celebrations.<\/span><\/p>\n

The already-sold-out Glastonbury has not yet announced its Friday headliner, but Emily Eavis stated it was a male artist performing at the festival for the first time; the BBC speculate<\/a>s that Kendrick Lamar is the favorite to land the Friday headlining gig.<\/span><\/p>\n

While Swift won\u2019t embark on a traditional tour in support of Lover<\/em> \u2014 the singer has thus far only announced five U.S. shows for 2020, a gig at Atlanta\u2019s Capital One Jam Fest and two concerts apiece at her bicoastal Lover Fest<\/a> \u2014 the singer has already lined up numerous European festivals, including Denmark\u2019s Roskilde, Lisbon\u2019s NOS Alive, France\u2019s Festival de Nimes and now Glastonbury.<\/span><\/p>\n
