The new edition of Q magazine lets slip on page 93 that Bruce Forsyth will be appearing on the Avalon Stage at Glastonbury Festival on the Sunday.
Forsyth was quoted in tabloids last year revealing that it was his showbiz goal to headline Glastonbury, saying, "Television is great but for me as a performer nothing compares to a live theatre show. Who knows, next year it could be Glastonbury Festival."
The 85 year old show-business veteran, and Strictly Come Dancing host Sir Bruce Forsyth made his debut festival appearance at Hop Farm Music Festival last year, and if Q are correct will now return to a festival stage again this summer.
It's just over 4 weeks now until this summer's Glastonbury Festival which runs for five full days from Wednesday 26th June until Monday 1st July 2013 across a 1000 hectares (2470 acres) of beautiful countryside at Worthy Farm, Somerset. Resales of unwanted tickets will take place on Sunday 21st April 2013, for those who have registered beforehand so that they are eligible to buy a ticket.
Tickets were priced at £205, and have sold out.
