Pop star Lorde has launched the 2025 Glastonbury Festival with a surprise pre-lunchtime set to a packed crowd on the Woodsies stage. The star was greeted by thousands of fans, who crammed into the tent after rumours about her appearance started spreading around the site.

Virgin marks Lorde’s fourth album and first since 2021’s Solar Power. She wrote and produced the record with Jim-E Stack, while additional contributors include Dev Hynes (a.k.a. Blood Orange), Dan Nigro, and Fabiana Palladino.
