Glastonbury: What time does Elton John start tonight?

Watch from outside the UK

Though the BBC’s iPlayer content is usually unavailable outside the UK, it’s easy to watch from abroad with a decent VPN. These apps can securely route your internet connection through another country, so if you tell the app to use UK servers, the websites you’re visiting will think you’re in the UK.

Some VPNs are blocked by the BBC, so you need to use a large reputable provider like NordVPN with a wide selection of different UK servers you can use to connect. If you do find one doesn’t work, simply switch to another.

Click here to go to NordVPN and get started. Once you’ve made an account and installed the app, you’ll be able to watch Glastonbury live on iPlayer all weekend – and for 30 days on catch-up.

Once the main music line-up gets underway on Friday, the BBC will run live streams from the five biggest stages on BBC iPlayer. Most of the sets from the Pyramid Stage, the Other Stage, the West Holts Stage, the Park Stage and Woodsies will be available live and on catch-up on iPlayer. In addition to this, there will be 40 hours of coverage on BBC TV channels and over 85 hours on BBC Radio. The Pyramid Stage coverage will be available in 4K Ultra HD.

Back in May, when the BBC’s plans for this year’s Glastonbury coverage were announced, Lorna Clarke, BBC Director of Music said: “Glastonbury 2023 will have even more live coverage from site, including a record number of hours on BBC One. There will be more programming in the lead-up, including an updated version of Glastonbury: 50 Years and Counting and more content to discover on BBC Sounds and BBC iPlayer. As always, scale and discovery is at the heart of our BBC Glastonbury coverage.

This year we’re proud to deliver over 40 hours of coverage across our TV channels to our audiences, as well as over 85 hours of live radio broadcasts, in addition to content on BBC Sounds. We’ll also be increasing the scale and accessibility of our BBC iPlayer offer, with even more themed and live streams. For the first time, we will be streaming Pyramid Stage performances live in British Sign Language, making our coverage more accessible than ever before. Our thanks once again go to Emily and Michael Eavis, for allowing us to bring their treasured festival to so many music fans throughout the weekend and beyond.”

Emily Eavis added: “We’ve worked in partnership with the BBC since 1997, and they’ve become an incredibly valuable part of what we do at Glastonbury. I think we’ve created something really special together and we’re delighted that they’re continuing to evolve their coverage with additions such as streaming Pyramid Stage performances live in British Sign Language. We’re looking forward to welcoming them to the farm in June and here’s to many more Glastonburys together.”
