Later today, a mystery act with the name 'Patchwork' is due to take to the Pyramid Stage.
Organiser Emily Eavis has admitted that she has been trying to book this mystery artist or group for over a year.
They will fill the 6:15pm slot before RAYE and Neil Young's highly anticipated sets at the 2025 Glastonbury Festival.
Many suggested the name is a pseudonym for either Lorde, Haim or the indie band PULP.
However, it appears one festival goer may have figured it out as they spotted a clue on the box of a sound engineer by the pyramid stage.
A source told The Mirror: "I spotted the sound engineer box with Pulp's name on as they were setting up during the Kaiser Chiefs set."
The group were also mentioned by the popular social media account, SecretGlasto.
For the last decade, the profile has become known for predicting the surprise act on the lineup.
One person named Ad, who has helped to run the account is confident that they had correctly guessed most of the secret performers.
He previously told The BBC: "Of the four main slots, I think we've got three of them, maybe four, nailed down.

"I think it's definitely people who have got relationships with the festival who will be doing the big slots.
"An emotional return for one or two, I think. Some unfinished business."
The account was correct yesterday as Lewis Capaldi made an emotional return, two years after his heartbreaking set.
He took a two-year hiatus from performing after his 2023 set at Worthy Farm saw him tear up and suffer repeated tics.

TICKETS to the 2025 festival sold out in just minutes before some of the acts were even confirmed. Here is who has been confirmed so far.

Other names confirmed include Noah Kahan, Alanis Morissette, Gracie Abrams, Busta Rhymes, Lola Young, Brandi Carlile, Myles Smith, En Vogue, Amaarae, Cymande, Shaboozey, Osees and Gary Numan.
But a crowd of more than 100,000 people chanted his name as he swaggered back onto the stage yesterday.
He told the audience: "Glastonbury, it's so good to be back. I'm not gonna say much up here today because if I do, I think I'll probably start crying.
"But I said it's just amazing to be here with you all, and I can't thank you all enough for coming out and coming and seeing me."
Pulp also have history with the festival as they previously performed in 1995 as well as 1998.

How earplugs became the hot new accessory at music festivals
I t's long past the witching hour at Genosys, an open-air nightclub at the Glastonbury Festival, and the DJ has turned up the volume. The bass thunders, the synths screech, but to me it all feels pleasantly as though it's happening in the next room. This is not because my ears have given up: I am wearing a pair of earplugs that filter out high-frequency sound waves. I can still hear every beat, crescendo and my husband asking if I want another drink; it just doesn't feel as if my eardrums are being subjected to artillery fire. I am 35 and have spent more than two decades taking a fairly cavalier approach to noise. I was in primary school when I got my first Walkman, later upgraded to an iPod. Then as I got a bit older I spent weekends camped near nightclub speakers screaming the lyrics to Mr Brightside. University involved similar nights out with even worse music; after graduating I discovered podcasts. I never gave much thought to my ears — until a bad infection caused my left eardrum to perforate and it scared me. This time at Glastonbury I wore earplugs under my bucket hat.

Mick Jagger parties with Jerry Hall and Ronnie Wood at huge A-List birthday bash
Rolling Stones star Mick Jagger celebrated his 82nd birthday in style last night - starting with a private dinner in Kensington before heading to Chelsea to continue the party Rock legend Mick Jagger celebrated his 82nd birthday with an A-List bash in London last night, where police were reportedly called at one point, due to an altercation outside involving security. The party started off with a private dinner at Kensington Roof Gardens, before the group headed to The Rex Rooms nightclub in Chelsea, arriving in style on party buses. There, they met with a number of other celebrities who were at the venue for the afterparty of the latest Oasis concert which took place at London's Wembley Stadium. Despite none of the Britpop band attending the afterparty - it didn't stop the rest of the celebrities, including Liam's sons Gene and Lennon Gallagher, from partying until 4am. The Rolling Stones frontman attended the venue hand in hand with his fiancé Melanie Hamrick, who stunned in a black mini dress and stilettos. Melanie appeared to be in the party mood, jokingly sticking her tongue out as she was snapped leaving the venue. Jagger matched the vibe with a black suit and white shirt - as he was all smiles as he was joined by his closest friends and family. Rolling Stones bandmate Ronnie Wood joined the bash with his wife Sally Humphreys Wood. Ronnie, who wore a bright blue shirt under a stone blazer, could be seen carrying a red gift bag with the words "Happy Birthday" on. Sally also opted for a colourful outfit, entering the venue in a floral print red dress. Also amongst the guests were Mick's 33-year-old daughter, Georgia May Jagger and her mother Jerry Hall. The pair looked in good spirits as the entered the venue, both looking elegant in mid length black dresses. Elizabeth Jagger was also seen heading into the party. Liam Gallagher's son Gene could also be seen at the bash, although it appeared he wasn't overly keen on being snapped as he was pictured with his head down as he walked into the venue while his girlfriend also covered her face. Other celebrities in attendance included Daphne Guinness, Sacha Baron Cohen, Jimmy Carr and Mariella Frostrup. Last month, it was reported the Rolling Stones were working on a new album after reportedly deciding to scrap plans for a comeback tour in Europe. It's claimed that the group have more than a dozen songs ready to go after spending time in the studio. Bandmates Mick Jagger, 81, Keith Richards, 81, and Ronnie Wood, 78, are said to have been working in Metropolis Studios in London since April. It was reported that they were in discussions over the release of their 25th studio album.

In one snap, Meg posed with her dad Stanley, and her daughter Anais, who she shared with Noel. In other clips shared to Instagram, Meg filmed herself with a group of pals in the crowd and appeared to be having the time of her life. Ahead of the gig, Meg reminisced on Oasis's previous London gigs where she spoke about little Anaïs, then just seven months old, as being as proud of her dad then as she is now.

'Tonight will be a celebration of family and friends, a moment to cherish. Seated this time, but the excitement remains just as strong. Here's to another 25 years of music and memories.' Oasis-fever officially hit London on Friday as the band return to the capital to play their first gig there in more than 16 years. After a run of homecoming gigs in Manchester's Heaton Park, the rock and roll stars, fronted by Gallagher brothers Liam and Noel, will take to the stage at London's Wembley Stadium tonight. Fans pitched up at the venue 12 hours before the start having paid at least £151 per ticket - but some have paid £564 or more for the best seats. The band announced their highly anticipated reunion tour in August last year, after Noel quit in 2009 after a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris. With five nights scheduled, the group posted door and stage timings on their Instagram account with an hour-by-hour breakdown of the evening, starting with the gates opening at 5pm. In other clips shared to Instagram, Meg filmed herself with a group of pals in the crowd and appeared to be having the time of her life Ahead of the gig, Meg reminisced on Oasis's previous London gigs where she spoke about little Anaïs, then just seven months old, as being as proud of her dad then as she is now The trio were joined by other pals in a box at Wembley The night will kick off from 6pm with the rock band Cast, followed by singer Richard Ashcroft at 7pm. Oasis will then take the stage for a two-hour set at 8.15pm. The group kicked off their Oasis Live '25 world tour on July 4 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, receiving five star reviews from critics at The Guardian, The Telegraph and The Times. The group has also dominated the UK album charts, with three top five albums, according to the Official Charts Company. While fans were excited at the reunion, some were outraged after some standard tickets in the UK and Ireland jumped from £148 to £355. The controversy prompted the Government and the UK's competition watchdog to pledge to look at the use of dynamic pricing. After their final London gig on August 3, the group will move north to Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium before performing at Dublin's Croke Park. The band will then head to Japan, South Korea, South America, Australia and North America. Formed in Manchester in 1991, the band was led by lead guitarist Noel and lead vocalist Liam during their 18 years together. Oasis signed to independent record label Creation Records in 1993, rising to fame with the release of their debut chart-topping album Definitely Maybe on August 29 1994 . They had hits with songs including Don't Look Back In Anger, Champagne Supernova, Wonderwall and Live Forever. Dig Out Your Soul, the band's last studio album, was released in 2008, just months before the Paris row.
