Mancunian band The Chemical Brothers have announced they are cancelling their show at Glastonbury due to Covid-19.

The electronic Duo broke the news on social media on Thursday, announcing that member Tom needs more days to recover from the virus. Writing on Twitter, the duo said: "We're very sorry to announce that we won't be DJing at Arcadia this evening at Glastonbury.

"We were so excited to be back in the fields and to celebrate the return of the festival, as were to be playing in Cork on Thursday night. We were hoping that more days rest would allow Tom to recover from Covid this hasn't so far been the case."
