One Direction star Louis Tomlinson says he'll be at Glastonbury Festival 2020

One Direction fans lucky enough to have secured tickets to the 50th anniversary of Glastonbury Festival are in for a treat, as Louis Tomlinson says he will be there.

While he's not confirmed he's performing at the Worthy Farm festival yet, he says he's routed his 2020 tour around the event.

He spoke about his love for the Somerset festival as he took part in BBC Radio 1's Christmas Day Superstar Takeovers special.

He said: “I’ve even routed my tour next year around Glastonbury, that’s how much of a fan I am.

“[I'm] very excited to see Paul McCartney.”

He went to Glastonbury as a spectator this year, and said: “People tell you that you’re going to do a lot of walking. Now, I’m getting quite unfit right… and the amount of walking… I looked at my steps every day, it’s like 10 miles every day.

"The place is massive, you definitely definitely pay for it after. I’ve still got a knot on my back from Glastonbury this year.”

Louis Tomlinson's tour dates

There is a Glastonbury-shaped hole in the pop star's tour dates, with him set to perform two US dates on June 23 and July 2.

If he does perform at the festival, he'll be joining the likes of Taylor Swift, Diana Ross and Paul McCartney, who are among the start already confirmed for Glastonbury Festival 2020.

Aerosmith, Kendrick Lamar and Foals are just some of the acts rumoured to play Glastonbury Festival 2020.

Glastonbury Festival will take place from Wednesday, June 24 to Sunday, June 28 next year. Tickets are sold out, but some will be available during the resale in April.

You can listen to the full Radio 1 Takeover show now on BBC Sound.
