"This is big news for us," said Eavis. "I think he's better than ever at the moment, it's one hell of a show."
Young, whose hits include Harvest Moon and Heart of Gold, has recorded more than 60 albums as a solo artist and as part of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.
Speaking to The Guardian, one of the festival's official sponsors, Eavis explained: "Neil Young to play this year is a dream come true for me personally. He is one of my all-time favourites and we have always wanted him to play."
