Glastonbury viewers couldn't quite believe what they were seeing as a female musician seemingly 'played' a pair of scissors during Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds' performance on the Pyramid Stage. As the Oasis singer promised fans that there would be "a lot of very happy people in bucket hats", they didn't quite expect to see a band member playing the unusual instrument.

Mark Sutherland Glastonbury Festival — the biggest live music event in Europe — gets into full swing today, for the first time since 2019.There will be 200,000 people on site in Somerset, in the west of England, watching thousands of performances across 93 different stages, including headliners Billie Eilish, Sir Paul McCartney and Kendrick Lamar, and Diana Ross in the highly prized Sunday afternoon ‘legends’ slot.And yet, somehow, Glastonbury is even bigger than those numbers suggest. First held in 1970 – when 1,500 hippies got free milk in exchange for their £1 entrance fee – the festival has developed into a national and international institution, as much a part of the traditional British summer as Wimbledon.
