One of the co-organizers of Glastonbury Festival, Emily Eavis, had previously voiced to address the gender disparity in festival line-ups. Recently she spoke on Annie Mac and Nick Grimshaw’s Sidetracked podcast about this thing. She said, “I’ve always been really passionate about gender split [on festival line-ups]. It is difficult with female artists because there aren’t enough headliners. But we’re also creating them. We’re putting the bands and female artists on smaller stages and bringing them through all the time.”
