What time is Sir Elton John playing at Glastonbury Festival 2023?

Glastonbury 2023 will finish with a unique and memorable performance from Sir Elton John on Sunday night.

The British star is playing the festival as the final UK date of his farewell tour and has told fans to expect the unexpected. Sir Elton told BBC Radio 1: "I'm starting with a song I haven't played for about 10 years, so we'll see how it goes.

"I've got the set list down, I've got rehearsal dates booked for the guest artists, so we just have to hope the weather will still be nice." Sir Elton, most famous for hits including "I'm Still Standing" and "Rocket Man", will perform at Glastonbury for the first time when he takes to the stage on Sunday.

Sunday's show will cap off the 350-date Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour. It was originally due to end two years ago, but multiple dates were rescheduled due to the covid pandemic.

Sir Elton has teased the set list has been revamped to keep the show fresh. He also confirmed he has a host of special guests to bring out at Worthy Farm but is keeping their identities a secret until the show.

Sir Elton will take to the stage on Sunday night at 9pm and will play until 11.05pm. He will follow Lil Nas X. Other headliners across the weekend have included the Arctic Monkeys and Guns N' Roses.
