Glastonbury Festival in Somerset, England, kicked off in earnest on Friday (June 27) with the first full day of programming across the Worthy Farm site.
The festival, which was first held on these grounds in 1970, is a hotbed of musical activity, paired with a fair amount of politics and various creative arts on the sprawling site. It attracts musicians from across the globe and all genres; 2025’s edition is headlined by The 1975, Neil Young and Olivia Rodrigo and features sets from Charli XCX, Rod Stewart, Lola Young, Raye and more.
Over 200,000 punters arrived Wednesday to set up their camps, with a limited lineup on Thursday and electronic music fans soaking up the good weather and an array of DJs on the site’s smaller stages. Marie Davidson, Four Tet, Confidence Man and more all got the party started with their various sets in the site’s raviest corner.
The festival’s fabled secret sets came into play on Friday, with Lewis Capaldi making his return to the stage with his first major performance in several years and Lorde celebrating the release of her new album Virgin with a surprise set at the Woodsies Stage to wake up sleepy festivalgoers at 11:30 a.m.
The 1975 headlined the Pyramid Stage for the first time, bringing a new stage show and pop bangers, while Loyle Carner topped The Other Stage following the release of his fourth LP hopefully !. These were the best moments Billboard U.K. witnessed at Glastonbury Festival on day 1.
