Taylor Swift has been announced as the Sunday headliner for Glastonbury 2020.

Festival founder Michael Eavis announced the news just a little over an hour ago, confirming rumours that Swift was due to make her Glastonbury debut in 2020. "She's one of the biggest stars in the world and her songs are absolutely amazing. We're so delighted," a statement from Eavis read.

Swift will join musical legends Paul McCartney and Diana Ross as headliners of Glastonbury's historic 50th anniversary in 2020, as well as more acts due to be announced. Swift, who played on last night's 'Strictly Come Dancing' final, posted the in-house newspaper from Glastonbury on Twitter earlier today.

Swift's latest album, 'Lover', was released in August of this year, with Swift opting for a festival tour ahead of her stadium tour for her last album, 'Reputation'. Tickets for Glastonbury, however, sold out in under 34 minutes when they went on sale in October.

No Irish dates have been currently set for Taylor Swift in 2020.
