Sir Rod Stewart brought pure magic to the Pyramid Stage on Sunday afternoon, delivering a dazzling performance for Glastonbury Festival’s coveted Legends slot. On June 29th, thousands gathered under the summer sky to watch the rock icon run through a hit-packed setlist filled with classic anthems, heartfelt covers, and some unforgettable surprise appearances.
Dressed to impress (with multiple outfit changes throughout), Rod kicked things off with the upbeat Tonight I’m Yours (Don’t Hurt Me) before launching into a string of covers and fan favorites that had the crowd dancing and singing along. From Sam Cooke’s Having a Party to a soulful rendition of The First Cut Is the Deepest, Rod reminded everyone exactly why he’s a living legend.
A Star-Studded Affair 🎤✨
The set was made even more special by appearances from music royalty. Mick Hucknall joined Rod on stage for a moving duet of If You Don’t Know Me by Now, while the legendary Lulu lit up the stage for Hot Legs. But the biggest cheer of the afternoon came when Rod reunited with his old Faces bandmate—and fellow Rolling Stone—Ronnie Wood for Stay With Me and Hot Legs, sending waves of nostalgia through the Pyramid field.
The show wasn’t just a celebration of Rod’s own career—it was a tribute to the power of soul, rock, and timeless songwriting. Backing vocalists took the spotlight for powerhouse renditions of Lady Marmalade and Proud Mary, while Rod’s take on Etta James’ I’d Rather Go Blind added a poignant emotional depth.
