The pop star closed the festival with a show-stopping set, a surprise duet, and a cheeky nod to English boys.
Olivia Rodrigo brought down the house at Glastonbury 2025, delivering an electrifying headline performance on the Pyramid Stage that mixed powerful vocals, nostalgic hits, and British charm.
The 22-year-old superstar walked on stage in a romantic white lace dress and kicked off her set with “Obsessed” from her Guts album. But it wasn’t long before the emotions — and expletives — came pouring out.
“Holy f****** s***, I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many people in my life,” Olivia told the roaring crowd. “Are you ready to have some fun?”

A Setlist of Hits – and a Surprise Glastonbury Legend
Rodrigo ran through fan favorites including Ballad of a Homeschooled Girl, Vampire, and the career-launching Drivers License, but the real magic moment came mid-set when she introduced a very special guest.
“I’m so wildly excited about this next guest,” she teased. “He is perhaps the best songwriter to come out of England, a Glastonbury legend, and a personal hero of mine.”
Out walked Robert Smith of The Cure, joining Olivia to perform a beautiful rendition of the 1992 classic Friday I’m in Love. The duet had the crowd swooning and instantly trended across social media.

Olivia’s Love Letter to England – and Louis Partridge
Rodrigo didn’t just sing — she gushed. From music to sweets to her boyfriend, Olivia made it clear that England has her heart.
“I love England so f****** much,” she declared. “It’s bands like The Cure that first got me acquainted with England… I love pop culture, I love how nobody judges you for having a pint at noon, I love English sweets — Colin the Caterpillar specifically.”
The crowd erupted when she cheekily added:
“And as luck would have it, I love English boys.”
Her boyfriend, actor Louis Partridge, was spotted dancing with her during Pulp’s surprise setthe night before — and fans can’t get enough of the couple’s Glasto moments.

Encore Energy in Union Jack Shorts
For her encore, Olivia changed into a pair of Union Jack-themed shorts, proving once again that she knows how to serve both style and stage presence. She ended the night with So American, All-American B****, good 4 u, and get him back! — a high-energy finale that had the crowd singing every word.
“Thank you so much, Glasto,” Olivia said, waving to the crowd. “This really is a dream come true! I’m so very grateful. Thank you!”
From emotional ballads to punk-pop anthems and a surprise collab with a British icon, Olivia Rodrigo’s Glastonbury set will go down as one of the festival’s most unforgettable closers.
