Mystery as huge billboard goes up outside Glastonbury Festival – and fans think it's a hint at secret set
GLASTONBURY kicks off today with several mystery slots still unannounced - and fans are on high alert for clues about surprise performers.
Now, a mysterious billboard has popped up near Castle Cary, the main train station for Glastonbury Festival.

The large white banner features a cryptic message in red text which says: 'I've had my share of Monday mornings when I can't get up.'
It also included a mobile phone number. When one Reddit user contacted the number, they said they got a response to sign up to a "scam" investment scheme.
The billboard was spotted by a festival-goer queuing early for the gates, who shared a photo to Reddit with the caption: 'Does anyone know what this is about / who's it for?
'Just got here to queue for gates opening and haven't seen anyone mention it. Give me ya theories!!!!'
One fan was quick to point out that the same sign appeared in Glasgow recently, fuelling rumours that Scottish singer Lewis Capaldi - who made a surprise return to the stage in May after a hiatus - may be planning a surprise return on one of Glastonbury's stages.
The Someone You Loved star, who has been diagnosed with Tourette's syndrome, was forced to take a break from music after struggling to finish his set at Glastonbury in June 2023.
The legendary festival officially opens today at Worthy Farm in Somerset, with headline performances scheduled from June 27 to June 29.
This year's headliners include The 1975, Neil Young, and Olivia Rodrigo.
Elsewhere on the bill are major acts like Charli XCX, Loyle Carner, Rod Stewart, The Prodigy, Doechii, and Raye.
Earlier this month, the full festival schedule was released — but fans noticed several TBA slots still in place.
Now they have a new theory about who else could make a surprise appearance at the legendary festival.
On the 2025 Glastonbury schedule, the Saturday 6.15pm slot has a mysterious act called "Patchwork" pencilled in, and fans have been trying to work out what it means.
It follows a similar mystery in 2023 when Churn Ups were revealed to be the Foo Fighters.
Fans are convinced that Chappell Roan is "Patchwork" after she posted a telling clue on Instagram.
It came after the Pink Pony Club star shared a picture of herself holding a patchwork quilt, and wrote next to it: "Insane vibe."
Dave Grohl also sparked a flurry of excitement after he jetted to the UK earlier this week.
Grohl, 56, sent fans into a spin after posing for a photo with US singer Amanda Palmer at London 's Royal Albert Hall.
After grabbing the Foo Fighters legend for a photo, she shared it on social media and told her followers: "Well I'll be damned. Not who I expected to run into backstage at the Yeah Yeah Yeah's show in London tonight, but look, it's Dave Grohl."
The rest of the bill features big-name acts such as Charli XCX, Doechii, Rod Stewart, Loyle Carner, The Prodigy and Raye.
