Coldplay and Beyonce lead the Glastonbury Festival

One of the biggest music festivals and has outdoor headliner. Glastonbury Festival will be held from 22 to 26 June, will be a first for Beyoncé, but not for Coldplay, which came in 2005 and 1999. "Coldplay has played an important role in the festival for the past 10 years or more," said Michael Eavis, Glastonbury organizer on the festival website.

"As his popularity grew throughout the world, I was so proud of them. This is the triumphant return of a band that everyone here feel a part. It is one of the greatest phenomena that emerged from this place," said . Coldplay's performance, scheduled for Saturday, will be the first band's performance at Glastonbury since 2005.

Coldplay debuted at the festival in 1999 in the New Bands tent weeks after signing a record deal. Speaking of Beyonce, Emily Eavis's daughter and co-organizer of the festival, said: "I went to see her live last year and I was fascinated by the strength of the presentation." "It is, I believe, the first female artist to headline the festival, what a great moment for us.

What better way to fire the festival until 2013?" He said. Glastonbury, held since 1970 in a farm in southwestern England that turns into a tent city and the scene of rock, is held every year, with occasional cuts, as planned for 2012.
