American soul singer and 1970s icon, Diana Ross is set to perform during Glastonbury's coveted "legend slot" this weekend.
The Motown star will bring her collection of hits, including 'Baby Love' and 'Upside Down', to the Pyramid Stage at Worthy Farm on Sunday 26 June.
The soul star was originally due to make her Glastonbury debut in 2020, before the event was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Sunday 'teatime' legends slot typically draws some of the event's biggest crowds, with stars such as Dolly Parton attracting the festival's biggest ever audience in 2014, and Kylie Minogue's 2019 set becoming the BBC's most-watched Glastonbury performance ever.
"I'm so excited and grateful to finally know that I'll be seeing you at Glastonbury," Ross said in a statement.
The former Supremes singer recently joined a whole host of famous faces coming together for the BBC’s Platinum Party At The Palace concert celebrating the Queen’s 70-year reign in June.
In a statement, the singer said she was “absolutely delighted to receive an invitation to perform on such a momentous and historic occasion”.

Ross began her decade-spanning career in the late 1950s as one third of The Supremes, but her career – and style – trajectory only skyrocketed from there.
Ross' first performances were awash with brilliant stage outfits by Bob Mackie, but she quickly became known for her glamorous 70s stage style.
From sparkling bodysuits, to glittery dresses to sequinned jumpsuits, Ross’ performance style was nothing short of show-stopping.
Ahead of Glastonbury the star is set to tour the UK for the first time since 2007, promising an "electrifying tour of music, memories and career magic... with all of her spectacular costume changes."
As she is set to take to the Glastonbury stage this weekend, take a look back at some of Diana Ross' best on-stage looks.
