A Glastonbury veteran performed their 100th set at the festival this weekend – and he brought along a very special guest.

This year’s Worthy Farm event saw headline performances from The 1975, Neil Young, and Olivia Rodrigo, with Rod Stewart taking the coveted Legend’s Slot.

Plenty of acts gave us something to talk about this weekend, with Kneecap and Bob Vylan sparking controversy with their sets.

Several secret sets took place, including Britpop icons Pulp, Lorde, Haim, and Lewis Capaldi.

Gary Numan was among the stars who played their first ever Glastonbury this year, while one DJ hit three figures when it comes to the number of sets they’ve performed.

Fatboy Slim, real name Norman Cook, performed a whopping six sets at this year’s festival, which took him past the big 100.

To mark the occasion, he played a Lonely Hearts set Friday, a Block 9 Genosys and a Shrangi-La set Saturday, and a surprise set on Sunday.

For the secret set, Slim, 61, was joined onstage by his son Woody Cook for a B2B performance in front of an elated crowd.

Woody, 24, who the DJ shares with ex-wife Zoe Ball, danced around the stage while his dad hit the decks.

Fans took to social media to congratulate ‘the best duo’ on the milestone, with Nickwill123 writing on Instagram: ‘What an amazing thing for father and son to do!!🔥❤️❤️.’

Connorhickss added: ‘This was just amazing to be a part of. And I can’t wait to see more from Woody He is truly amazing with unmatched energy ❤️🙌.’

‘Amazing what an honour. Dad and son. Enjoy xxx,’ Terribaker7980 wrote.

Ahead of his Glastonbury appearance, Woody walked 192 miles from Dover to Pilton to raise money for various environmental charities.

At the time of writing, Woody and his music collective, Truth Tribe, have raised more than £14,000 with the incredible feat.

It was a whole family affair at Glastonbury after Zoe, 54, who was married to Slim from 1999 until 2016, was spotted at the event with a mystery man.

A source told The Sun: ‘Zoe is down at Glastonbury as a punter and has brought her new boyfriend along for the ride.

‘They seemed blissfully happy and were strolling along holding hands.

‘She was really smiling at him as they walked along and he was very protective of Zoe and put his hand across her back.

‘People were doing double-takes at her bloke though because he looks a lot like Fatboy. It’s so great to see Zoe smiling again.’
