The 1975 were spotted watching Charlie XCX perform:

But not everyone was happy with the replacement headliners. Fans have reported that Charlie XCX was booed on stage after shouting out The 1975.

An appetite for secret sets and dissipated discontent

Rumblings of discontent regarding cancelled sets and flooded tents had dissipated by Friday afternoon, writes Tom Coates.

Rage Against The Machine, Maneskin and Jack Harlow have all dropped out of the festival but their absences have not dampened the spirits on the first official day.

All stages are now open and early performers were greeted by glorious sunshine.

Revellers were out bright and early for the lunchtime acts, which included the daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, known on stage as WILLOW.

Earlestown four-piece The K’s also drew an energetic crowd over on the Main Stage West despite their early slot.

They took to the stage at 12:30pm but there was no sign of hangovers as people climbed upon the shoulders of their friends down the front.

With an evening of performances from big names ahead, the atmosphere is lively but friendly.

Excitement building for headline acts

Our reporter Tom Coates writes: “The sun has disappeared but the crowds are thickening as people pile in to the arena to catch the likes of DMA’s and Run The Jewels. Not too long to go until the headliners.”
