HE has never played Glasto but that did not stop Harry Styles turning up as a punter ready to party – dressed down in a blue trackie top.

He was spotted hanging out with close pal Olivia Dean following the singer's secret set on the Strummerville stage — and it seemed he still had plenty of energy after later seeing THE 1975 headline The Pyramid Stage.
A source said: 'Harry knows how to party and was loving the vibe at the festival.
"He was seen sporting big shades and drinking backstage with pals, and was catching up with Olivia following her set.
'Harry has been spending lots of time in Germany at Berlin nightclub Berghain getting plenty of practice at late nights at Glasto.'
'Low profile'
Actor James Norton and new lover Lily Allen were also spotted partying at Block9, alongside actress Anya Taylor-Joy and singer Lorde — who also performed on Friday.
Earlier in the day Harry was seen hugging friends in the festival's VIP area.
He then headed off to The Other Stage with a group of pals to see Franz Ferdinand play and stayed on to watch Gracie Abrams.
An onlooker said: 'Harry was saying how excited he was to be at the festival and was hoping to go as incognito as possible so he could enjoy the music.
'He was politely declining having photos taken with fans, as he wanted to keep a low profile and not draw too much attention.'
Meanwhile, Harry's former One Direction bandmate Louis Tomlinson has also been spotted at Worthy Farm — checking out the music with his Love Islander girlfriend Zara McDermott.

A source said: 'Glastonbury is huge but Harry and Louis are bound to bump into each other in the VIP area at some point.'
So it's a 1D reunion — sort of — at Glasto.

ZARA McDERMOTT did her bit for charity before enjoying the festival.
The former Love Island star spoke on The Information stage with domestic abuse organisation Refuge and urged men to call out their friends when sexist jokes go too far.
Zara said: 'I have seen boys' group chats, which are so misogynistic and sometimes downright abusive. Boys and men are scared to call each other out.
'They laugh along because it's easier. Just because it's easy doesn't mean it's right.'
Boyfriend Louis Tomlinson watched from the crowd.
It's brat pack for Denise

LOOSE Women's Denise Welch got a taste of brat as she posed with Charli XCX at Worthy Farm.
She shared a selfie with the singer before her son Matty Healy headlined the Pyramid Stage with The 1975.
It came after the TV star spotted a green flag mimicking Charli's Brat album – with the words 'Denise Welch'.
Sharing the selfie next to Charli, who's engaged to 1975 drummer George Daniel, on Insta, Denise wrote: 'Talking about my Brat flag.'
Ex-Corrie star Denise also hung out with Matty's fiancee and Charli's BFF Gabbriette backstage.
Looks like Denise is part of a new girl gang.

THE 1975 frontman Matty Healy preached love to fans during the band's headline set on the Pyramid Stage.
Pausing between songs to address the crowd on Friday night, he said: 'The lack of politics in this show, it is a conscious decision.
'We don't want our legacy to be one of politics – we want it to be that of love and friendship.
'You go out into the world and there is loads of politics. We don't need more, we need more love and friendship.
'If you are a young kid and inspired about this band, aspire for friendship and love in what you do and you will never fail – and I love you.'

THE heat was no sweat for Jade Thirlwall as she donned a gigantic fur hat on stage for her first Glastonbury performance.
As well as belting out her own hits, the singer also performed some Little Mix hits, including Shout Out To My Ex and Touch.
She was cheered on by her fella Jordan Stephens, who played the day before with his band Rizzle Kicks.
Growing emotional when she sang her track Angel Of My Dreams, she thanked the crowd and said: 'I can't believe I'm here.'
Veterans Pulp far from patchy

Pulp made their return to Glastonbury on Saturday night on the Pyramid Stage

IN one of the worst-kept secrets on Worthy Farm, Pulp finally made their appearance on Glasto's Pyramid Stage on Saturday night.
The band had been billed as 'Patchwork' to keep their identity under wraps.
Opening with 1995 hit Sorted For E's and Wizz and Disco 2000, frontman Jarvis Cocker said that the set marked a special anniversary.
He said: 'My name is Jarvis and this is Pulp – sorry for people who were expecting Patchwork. Did you know we were going to play? How? Psychic?
'Those two songs we just played – Sorted For E's and Wizz and Disco 2000 – were first played on this stage 30 years and four days ago.
'It was the very first time we played them. You could say they were born in Glastonbury.'
After Pulp's set, the Red Arrows flew over the Pyramid Stage. Now that's finishing on a high.

Charli XCX brings Brat back to Glastonbury in electric performance
Her set on the Other Stage marked just over a year following the release of her culture-shaping sixth studio album, which inspired the 'Brat summer' trend. 'It's summertime and I was thinking about last summer – did anyone have a Brat summer?' she said. The singer, wearing an all-black ensemble including sunglasses and knee-high boots, began her set with 360 and Von Dutch. The 32-year-old played her Partygirl set at the festival in 2024, but this time the singer took to a much bigger stage amid a year that has seen her pick up a slew of awards. She launched into upbeat dance track Club Classics after the two opening songs. 'These are all of my people who are going to (late night music venue) Block9 tonight', she said. Alongside the songs from her new album, she performed tracks from her back catalogue, treating revellers to Unlock It (Lock It), Party 4 U, Vroom Vroom, and Speed Drive – which appeared on the Barbie movie soundtrack. Performing her viral Apple dance at the show was US singer Gracie Abrams who had played on the same stage a day earlier. During her gigs Charli XCX often gets a famous person to perform the dance, which started as a trend on TikTok. The British singer also performed her version of Guess with US superstar Billie Eilish and Girl, So Confusing with Lorde, though neither appeared for the performance. Before ending her set on crowd-pleasing number one hit I Love It, featuring Icona Pop, she danced while water poured down from the stage ceiling amid a rendition of Blame It On Your Love. In recent months the singer, real name Charlotte Aitchison, has been performing at festivals across the globe, including Coachella in California, Primavera Sound in Barcelona and a headline slot at Lido Festival in London. Following the release of Brat, her infectious electronic-pop tracks soared up the charts and inspired a trend, with fans embracing the 'Brat summer' cultural movement. The accolades followed, and in March she dominated the Brit Awards, winning five categories including songwriter of the year. She also secured album of the year, artist of the year, dance act, and song of the year for her track Guess featuring Eilish. In February she picked up three awards at the Grammys and she was named songwriter of the year at The Ivors in May.

Pulp's secret Glastonbury set review – still the magnificently misshapen oddballs of British pop
'Sorry for people who were expecting Patchwork,' says Jarvis Cocker, in reference to the mysterious name that appeared on the Glastonbury bill in lieu of Pulp's. 'How did you know we were going to play?' In fairness, Pulp did their best to conceal their appearance at the festival (as Cocker says, it's 30 years and four days since they were parachuted into the Glastonbury headlining slot, a now-legendary performance that sealed their ascendancy). Keyboard player Candida Doyle even gave an interview to a local Somerset newspaper insisting that while they wanted to play, Glastonbury 'weren't interested'. But clearly no one was convinced – the Pyramid stage is headlining-set heaving. There's something charming about the fact that they open with Sorted For E's & Wizz, a song that takes a pretty equivocal, even steely view of the kind of hedonism that prevails at Glastonbury: proof, should it be needed, that Pulp remain a band who seldom go about things the straightforward way. Listening to them play their 90s hits – Mis‐Shapes, Disco 2000, Babies – you're struck by how little they had in common with their ostensible Britpop contemporaries. Their wonky collision of 70s glam, French pop, disco and analogue electronics didn't sound like any of their peers, nor was the prevailing mood of their songs much in tune with the supposed mood of the era. They're substantially darker and grubbier, consistently sticking up for oddballs and outsiders at a time when alternative music was making a lunge for a mainstream audience. It's as if they became huge coincidentally, rather than as part of a movement. This means that, for all the nostalgia their old songs evoke in anyone who can remember the 90s – and a quick scan around the audience reveals a number of people looking distinctly moist-eyed as they play – they aren't welded to the era in which they were first recorded, so they haven't really dated. Moreover, there isn't really any diminution in quality when they drop in Spike Island and Got To Have Love, two songs from their comeback album More, a smart reapplication of their longstanding approach to a later stage of life. Cocker, meanwhile, remains a fantastic frontman, dispensing sage wisdom about the festival itself – 'to enjoy Glastonbury, you have to submit to it' – and reflecting on how terrified the band were to find themselves filling in at short notice for an indisposed Stone Roses in 1995: 'But I feel very relaxed today – how about you?' You'd probably feel quite relaxed too if you knew you had Common People as your closing number. Surely the most straightforwardly rousing anthem ever written about class rage, it causes delirium on a scale not so different from that you can see in old footage of their headlining appearance: a highlight then, it's also one of the most joyous moments so far in this year's festival. Presumably somewhat by coincidence, the Red Arrows stage a flypast midway through the song. And off Pulp go, Jarvis promising to see the audience in Arcadia later.
