After years of leaving fans in limbo, Rihanna might finally be stepping back into the music scene—and in a big way. According to The Telegraph, the pop icon is rumored to be planning a residency at London’s former Olympic Stadium (now the London Stadium), with up to six concerts slated for early July.

If true, this marks her first major solo performance run in nearly a decade.

Sources claim that Rihanna’s promoters have already secured the stadium for potential shows, with tentative dates set for July 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, and 12.

While no official announcement has been made yet, the speculation is growing louder, and an official confirmation could drop as soon as next week.

But that’s not all—her rumoured schedule leaves a glaringly obvious gap right before those London dates.

With the Glastonbury Festival set to take place the last weekend of June and no confirmed headliners for 2025, fans are wondering: Could Rihanna be gearing up for her long-awaited Glasto debut?

Rihanna has kept her music career on pause since the release of Anti in 2016, focusing on her billion-dollar empire, Fenty Beauty and Savage X Fenty, as well as motherhood.

While fans have grown skeptical of every “R9 is coming” rumor, these new developments suggest that her return might finally be imminent, especially after Rihanna’s newest interview with Harper’s Bazaar, telling the magazine she does, in fact, have music coming, and has been in the studio for the past 8 years.

For now, nothing is official, but if the whispers prove true, Rihanna could be set to dominate the summer of 2025 with both a Glastonbury takeover and a highly anticipated residency. And after nearly a decade of waiting, the fans are more than ready.
