Dolly’s performance on the Pyramid Stage remains one of the most celebrated moments in Glastonbury history. Dressed head-to-toe in a dazzling white rhinestone pantsuit, the country star pulled in an estimated 180,000 festival-goers—one of the largest crowds ever recorded at Worthy Farm, stretching across the entire field as far as the eye could see.
