Lewis, 28, had taken a break from his music career in 2023 to focus on his health, and was delighted and emotional in equal measure as he received a huge welcome from the Worthy Farm crowd.
Following the gig - which saw him perform new track Survive - Lewis confirmed he is hitting the road on a brand new tour in September.
But before that, he delighted fans on Friday night when he took to the stage at BST Hyde Park Festival alongside headliner Noah Kahan.
American singer Noah, 28, put on a cracking show for the crowd before bringing Lewis on for the encore.
The pair then performed Noah's hit 2022 single, Northern Attitude, together.
The appearance comes after Lewis spoke out about his Glastonbury performance, which came two years after his final performance at the festival before stepping away from the spotlight.
In a heart-warming video posted on his social media, he revealed his true feelings surrounding the burn-out.
Speaking from the heart, he told fans: "One word to describe how I'm feeling now is... spectacular."
Looking back over his Glastonbury experience in 2023, he admitted: "This should be like, a really happy moment, and it isn't.
"I'm like, achieving my dream here. If there was a film about being a singer, and starting as a kid, and they'd be like, Oh, I'd love to be a singer one day and perform in front people, I've done it.
Lewis Capaldi breaks silence on emotional Glastonbury return after taking a break from music
"I've got to the end of the film and it's not how I thought it was going to be.
"And all these people are singing at me and I feel 1,000 miles away there, and I watch it back and actually feel sad.
"Second song in, I was probably just thinking, this has to be it, like... I can't keep doing this to myself.
"As far as I was concerned, it was like, I'm done. I didn't take a break to just focus on getting better.
"I took a break because I needed a break and to sort of release the pressure valve a little bit."
Within the montage, Lewis added pictures and home-filmed clips of himself performing as a youngster, full of hopes and dreams.
He captioned the tear-jerking montage: "Been mad looking back at it all. Thank you so much for still being here."

Queen Camilla's son reveals the common 'myth' about his mother that just isn't true
Tom Parker-Bowles has revealed the one big 'myth' about his mother Queen Camilla that just isn't true - and it's apparently a very common misconception. Queen Camilla's eldest child, 50, who is based in London, unveiled the truth about his mother in the podcast White Wine Question Time. He told host Kate Thornton that while King Charles 's wife is often pictured enjoying a glass of red wine at social engagements, he has 'never even seen her tipsy'. Parker-Bowles said there is a common 'myth' that Queen Camilla likes to 'knock back a gin and tonic with a cigarette'. However, the food critic said his mother 'doesn't drink gin'. She does, admittedly, 'enjoy a glass of red wine', Parker-Bowles says, insisting his mother is a 'sensible' drinker. He said he has never seen Queen Camilla tipsy - and she hasn't smoked for 20 years. Earlier in the podcast, Parker-Bowles revealed that not having a trust fund when he was younger 'probably' saved his life. He told Thornton that he had a trust fund and did not have to work for financial stability, his life would look very different. 'Sadly, no trust fund. You know, actually, it's a good thing not having a trust fund. I'd probably be dead if I'd had one,' Tom said candidly on the podcast's latest episode. He added, 'Obviously, I had to work like everyone. You know, you have to work. It's important. 'So, I stumbled somewhat into food writing, 25 years ago when the landscape was rather different.' Before falling for food writing, Tom worked various jobs, including a brief stint in PR. He recalled, 'I worked for a wonderful film PR company called DDA and they used to run Cannes and you'd be looking after talent.' 'So you'd be taking Alicia Silverstone round London in the '90s or Anna Friel or whatever. So it wasn't exactly the most arduous task for a straight man. It wasn't the most arduous of jobs, but I was always late.' 'I'm still friends with my bosses, Stacey and Dennis, and they're lovely people. But eventually, enough was enough. I got sacked… So anyway, I was sitting around thinking, you know, what the hell am I going to do? Tom later settled on food writing and is now a regular contributor to the Mail on Sunday and Country Life. It comes after Tom recalled the embarrassing gaffe he made when he met Queen Elizabeth II for the first time. The food critic was discussing his new book, Cooking & the Crown, which traces the history of royal culinary cuisine through the tastes and preferences of Britain's king and queens. Speaking to The Independent, Tom said the book was originally only going to include royal recipes and anecdotes between the reigns of Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth II, giving him a 'degree of separation' since he had only met the late monarch twice. The first time was when he was eight, Tom recalled, adding: 'I was so scared that I curtsied rather than bowed.' When greeting the monarch or a member of the royal family, men traditionally bow their heads (a neck bow) while women do a small curtsy. The next time he would meet the late Queen would be on the occasion of Camilla's wedding to King Charles, when he and his sister Laura Lopes 'snuck out for a fag or something' and got lost in Windsor Castle.

The Scottish singer made an emotional return to Glastonbury last weekend as he performed his new song Survive, which has since gone to number one on the singles chart.

(Image: Yui Mok) Speaking to Official Charts, Capaldi thanked fans who had streamed and downloaded Survive, saying it 'really means the world'. 'I've been away for a little while, and to come back to this outpouring of love and support has been absolutely incredible. 'I can't thank everybody enough for all the kind words since Glastonbury – and now this.

Speaking to the festival crowd on Saturday, he said: 'It's so good to be back. I'm not going to say much up here today, because if I do, I think I will probably start crying. 'But 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. 'Second time's a charm on this one, everybody. 'It's just a short set today, but I just wanted to come and kind of finish what I couldn't finish the first time round.' Introducing Survive at the festival, Capaldi became visibly emotional as he said: 'The last two years haven't been the best for me, it's been difficult at times. 'This has been my f****** goal, to get back here,' he added.

The condition causes you to make sudden, repetitive sounds or movements and while there is no cure, treatment can help manage the tics, according to the NHS website. Capaldi has previously achieved six number one singles, but his latest – Survive – has scored the biggest opening week for a number one single so far this year. He is set to embark on a tour later this year, with dates in Glasgow and Aberdeen.
