With the line-up still under wraps, tickets go on sale, and bookmakers take bets on who will headline the last festival before the fallow year.
The rumours are swirling, and festival fans are wondering — will Eminem finally step onto the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury 2025? He has never performed at the legendary UK festival, but with his odds at 4/1, excitement is building around the possibility that this could be the year we see Slim Shady in Somerset.
Why the anticipation? Well, for one, Eminem’s been on a roll in 2024, dropping his 12th album, “The Death of Slim Shady”, and making a surprise return at the MTV VMAs in September. He has shown that he still has it and then some, and then he rocked the 100,000 crowd at the F1 weekend in Austin. He has a mini-tour in the Middle East planned and just recently hinted to the UK fans that he would see them soon.
Glastonbury appearance would be the perfect way to cap off this era. Though the official line-up will not be announced until early next year, Eminem’s name has consistently popped up among the favourites alongside other major headliners like Stevie Wonder and Rihanna.
It would not be the first time Eminem has conquered a major UK festival. In 2017, he headlined the Reading and Leeds Festival, leaving fans hungry for more. But Glastonbury? That would be something special. His odds at 4/1 have fans feeling hopeful, though they are up against some stiff competition. The bookies also have Harry Styles, Olivia Rodrigo, and even Ed Sheeran in the running, and every one of them has better odds, so nothing is set in stone yet.
For now, all we can do is cross our fingers and keep an eye on those odds. Glastonbury tickets are already flying out the door, and if you are dreaming of seeing Slim Shady live in Worthy Farm, you will need to have already registered by the deadline on November 11.
