Glastonbury Festival
The Glastonbury festival will celebrate its belated 50th anniversary in 2021 after this years event was cancelled due to the pandemic. With the event scheduled to take place between the 23rd and 27th of June 2021, some of the big music talents who were scheduled to grace the event during the 2020 festivals will surely be on the list. If the 2020 list is anything to go by, expect performances from Taylor Swift and Kendrick Lamar, among others.
Primavera Sound

celebrate its belated 20th anniversary in 2021 after this year’s festival was cancelled. Primavera Sound is a music festival hosted in Barcelona, Spain, between the beginning of May and the end of June and attracts top performances from renowned artists from around the world.
