In an exclusive feature by The Sun, Twain gave an inside look to her forthcoming Pyramid Stage set, which she promises to be an epic performance with “all the hits”.
She also added that the door is open for Harry Styles to join her onstage, following her appearance at his Coachella 2022 set. “I was Harry’s guest at Coachella so if he attends Glastonbury, then I will make him come up with me. If he attends, that is,” she tells The Sun.
However, she cautions that she has no idea if Styles is in the area: “If he’s not here, it’s really hard to get in there to just show up so I’m not going to hold it against him,” she adds.
She also shared with The Sun that she intends to spend the weekend at the festival checking out the grounds incognito – she’s also looking forward to watch Coldplay perform for the first time.
“I am going to see some of the festival, as I have never been before,” she says. “I am told I will love it. I plan on going early and just taking it all in. I have a pair of baby pink wellies with horses on, they are great. I don’t know why I want to wear those but I do.”
“I’ve never seen a Coldplay show, even though I’ve sung with Chris Martin.”
Last year, Twain released her sixth studio album ‘Queen of Me’. She reveals to The Sun that her seventh album is due for release sometime next year.

In a 2023 interview with NME, Twain had already shared hopes to perform at Glastonbury Festival, following the steps of past headliners Dolly Parton and Willie Nelson. “It’s all about celebrating that I can belt and power-sing again,” she says about performing live. “And that the mutual respect [with my audience] is still there. You know, when I go on tour, people show up. That’s a pleasure. That’s a joy.”
Earlier this week, Twain teased plans to bring a horse onstage for her Glastonbury 2024 performance. She told BBC Breakfast: “I’d love to ride a horse to the stage. I love horses. I love animals I’m going to see if there’s a horse around I can borrow.”
After Glastonbury, Twain will perform a headlining show at London’s BST Hyde Park 2024 on July 7. Other acts confirmed for the summer festival include The Corrs, Anne-Marie and Natalie Imbruglia.
