Image source, PA MediaWow, Friday at Glastonbury 2024 certainly didn't disappoint.
Pop megastar Dua Lipa topped tonight's party at Worthy Farm with her energetic headline set.
But elsewhere Jungle, LCD Soundsystem, PJ Harvey, Idles, Olivia Dean, Jamie XX, Sugababes brought the festival to life.
And that's just the start.
We'll be back here tomorrow for Little Simz, Michael Kiwanuka, Keane, Disclosure and the Streets, as well as a little-known band called Coldplay (anyone heard of them?) who are headlining Saturday night.
For those of you in the UK, you can watch all the acts back on BBC iPlayer, where the festival will be streamed all weekend.
Today's coverage was brought to you by myself, Johanna Chisolm and Jamie Whitehead, as well as our reporters at Glastonbury.

BBC Music correspondentImage source, PA MediaWall-to-wall hits, with barely a pause for breath and a fireworks budget to rival tomorrow night’s headliners Coldplay.
Before the show, she said she wanted to turn Glastonbury into a nightclub, and for 1 hour 45 minutes she kept her promise.
Familiar hits were given club reworking, and the sub-bass rattled the foundations of the Pyramid stage.
Image source, PA MediaDua mentioned several times how she had manifested this moment - writing down a promise to herself six years ago that she would play this time slot at this festival.
And it feels like she can’t have been far away from achieving every single moment of that childhood dream.
It’ll be a hard act to follow.

Her last song is Houdini off her new album Radical Optimism.
Fireworks shoot in the air as her set closes.
"This has been a massive dream come true," she says, before adding "Glastonbury I love you".

reporting from GlastonburyDua’s singing Happy For You - the closing track of her latest album, Radical Optimism.
It’s a track about seeing an ex move on, and feeling content rather than resentful… a big change from the bitter break-up songs on her first album.
Powered by a syncopated backbeat, it’s one of the rockiest songs in her catalogue - and really suits the rasp in her voice.
A great set closer before the encore.

reporting from GlastonburyImage source, EPADua’s musical influences have clearly been a huge part of tonight’s set - she’s paid homage to disco, rave culture and psychedelic rock.
She’s made no secret of her love of Elton John so of course we expected her rendition of Cold Heart to be pretty special.
Elton performed it without her when he headlined last year and she did the same tonight - albeit with a host of dancers to provide a huge sing-along moment with the audience.

They were on in 1992 when the other headliners were Youssou N’Dour and Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine.

Inside Glastonbury reporter - BBC Radio SomersetThe crowd gathered for Dua Lipa are in the mood for a great performance tonight.
Plus, it’s a huge crowd here too.
It’s stretching all the way back to Rowmead at the back of the Pyramid field - an area that used to be used for campers.
But now it gives extra space for thousands more fans to watch their favourite headliners (and there are loads here tonight for Dua)!

reporting from GlastonburyEarlier today, a fan told me Dua “looks good in anything”.
Totally agree.
However, I was also dying to see what she would wear tonight.
The answer? A black leotard, knee high boots, silver studded belt, silver chains.
It’s a bit chilly this evening. No matter.
This outfit is stunning and perfect for Dua’s energetic dance routines... win win.
Dua Lipa wants to turn her Glastonbury set into a nightclubpublished at 22:11 28 June
22:11 28 June
A couple of months ago, Dua Lipa sat down with our music correspondent Mark Savage.
What does the British-Albanian star think about headlining this year's festival?
“I think about it all the time,” she said.
“Fifty per cent of my thoughts go to Glastonbury, then the rest are for everyday tasks.”
Her headlining performance will be her first appearance at Worthy Farm since playing the John Peel Stage back in 2017.
Image source, Getty ImagesSo did she give us any insight into her set?
“I’ve got to figure out a way to make 150,000 people feel like they’re in a small little nightclub,” she said.
“That’s the goal, and if there’s one place to do it, it’s gotta be Glasto.”
