For the first time, the BBC will live stream Glastonbury Festival's main event, Dua Lipa and Coldplay's 2024 Pyramid Stage performance, to a global audience.
Produced by BBC Studios and available to stream on the recently relaunched BBC.com, Dua Lipa's headlining performance will take place on Friday, June 28 from 5:00pm-6:45pm ET (11:00pm-12:45am CEST), and Coldplay's headlining performance will take place on Saturday, June 29 from 4:45pm-6:45pm ET (10:45pm-12:45am CEST).
Seven-time BRIT Award winner and three-time Grammy Award winner Dua Lipa will perform on the Pyramid Stage for the first time, while seven-time Grammy Award winners Coldplay will return as headliners of Glastonbury Festival for the fifth time and for the first time since 2016.
There will also be festival highlights, updates and analysis on BBC.com throughout the weekend.
Tara Maitra, chief commercial officer, BBC Studios, said: “Glastonbury Festival is an icon of British culture and this livestream will give fans around the world an unprecedented front-row seat to the headline performances.”
“This is just the latest example of our focus to bring culture-defining moments like Glastonbury to more fans on our platform outside the UK, allowing our users to experience the best of British culture wherever they are.”
Lorna Clarke, BBC director of music, said: “At the BBC we bring you Glastonbury and we're incredibly proud of our coverage.
“This will enable millions of people to access the magic of Emily and Michael Eavis festivals each year. Global streaming of Dua Lipa and Coldplay performances is another exciting addition to our service, connecting music fans across the country and around the world, giving them the opportunity to experience these world-class performances in person.”
The BBC has relaunched BBC.com and the BBC App globally. The new website and apps give audiences outside the UK even greater access to read, watch and discover BBC journalism and storytelling.
