**Rod Stewart Turns Glastonbury Into a Giant Sing-Along at 80, Proves Rock ‘n’ Roll Has No Age Limit**
The sun dipped low over Worthy Farm, casting a golden glow on the Pyramid Stage—and out strode a living legend in a pink sequined suit and a sailor hat. At 80 years old, Rod Stewart didn’t just perform at Glastonbury 2025—he owned it.
From the moment he launched into “Maggie May,” the energy in the crowd of over 200,000 erupted into joy. The fields became a sea of swaying arms, dancing feet, and tearful smiles. Stewart’s voice, still raspy and full of soul, rang out like a beacon from another era, reminding everyone why he’s one of rock’s great showmen.
Hit after hit poured out of the speakers—“You Wear It Well,” “Forever Young,” “Tonight’s the Night,” and, of course, “Da Ya Think I’m Sexy?”—each one greeted with massive sing-alongs that echoed across the Somerset hills. It wasn’t just a concert. It was a mass celebration of life, love, and decades of unforgettable music.
And then came the surprises.
Elton John made a cheeky cameo to duet on “Sailing,” sending shockwaves through the crowd. Later, Stewart welcomed a chorus of young buskers from Glasgow to join him for “Rhythm of My Heart,” blending generations in a heartwarming finale that brought many to tears.
Rod strutted, spun, and laughed with the carefree joy of a man half his age. But the magic wasn’t just in his movements—it was in the way he connected with every single person in that field. For one hour, Glastonbury didn’t feel like a festival. It felt like a family reunion led by the coolest uncle in rock.
Rod Stewart didn’t just perform. He turned Glastonbury into the biggest sing-along the festival has ever seen—and proved once and for all: you’re never too old to bring t
he house down.
