Glastonbury 2024: Here’s the latest weather forecast

It's Friday – do you feel lucky?

The gates for Glastonbury 2024 are finally open – but will it be rain or shine down on Worthy Farm? Check out the latest weather forecast below.

This year’s edition of the legendary festival will take place between June 26-30, with Dua LipaColdplay and SZA due to headline the Pyramid Stage. Other confirmed acts include Shania TwainLCD SoundsystemLittle SimzThe NationalAvril LavigneThe Last Dinner PartyJungleJusticeBloc PartyFontaines D.C.Yard ActArlo Parks and Gossip.

In early June, organisers revealed the full line-up, stage splits and timings for the sold-out bash – including some new names and various ‘TBA’ secret slots. The BBC has also shared its extensive coverage plans for the huge weekend of music.

Those lucky enough to have secured tickets for Glasto ’24 will no doubt be scouring the line-up and agonising over some of the brutal clashes on the bill. But another big talking point as the festival edges closer is – of course – the weather.

The BBC Weather website forecast for the full five days currently shows temperatures ranging from the high-10s to the mid-20s, with sunny intervals, light winds and broadly dry conditions. Festivalgoers can expect at least the first few days of their Worthy Farm visit to remain rain-free. See below, and check back on this page for updates.

Friday, June 28: Sunny intervals and a moderate breeze, with temperatures peaking at 17°C and lows of 9°C

The Met Office‘s long-range forecast – which covers June 29 to July 8 – says to expect “fresher conditions with a westerly wind from the Atlantic”, and that the “changeable weather is most likely to prevail through much of this period; the hotter and more humid weather experienced by the south prior to this will most likely have been pushed away into the nearby Continent.”

Last year, festival organisers issued advice on staying safe in the heat as temperatures reached the high 20s and the site largely remained dry and sunny. The last time Glasto-goers experienced significant rain and mud was in 2016 – when Coldplay topped the bill.

In other news, this year’s Friday night headliner Dua Lipa has kicked off her summer tour – giving ticketholders a taste of what to expect later this month.

Lipa said in a recent interview that she “manifested” headlining Glastonbury “by album three” early on in her career. Her third studio record, ‘Radical Optimism’, was released on May 3.

The singer is reportedly planning to use footage from Glasto ’24 for a new documentary film.

Meanwhile, the bookies’ odds have been published for who might be playing a secret set at Worthy Farm this year – and bets have been suspended on one huge artist already.
