Lewis Capaldi at Glastonbury 2025 – Live streams, Date, Time, Channels
Lewis Capaldi’s Glastonbury 2025 set takes place on the Pyramid Stage on Friday, June 27.
â–º Start time: 4:55 p.m. BST / 11:55 a.m. ET / 08:45 a.m. PT / 02:45 a.m. AEDT (Sat.)
• FREE STREAM — BBC iPlayer (U.K.)
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free
The Secret Act has been non-stop talked about since it was first announced earlier this month. Rumors have been circling about who it could be, but it now appears centered on one man in Lewis Capaldi.
It would not just be the Scottish Beyonce’s first Glastonbury appearance since the audience pitched in to help him out with his set in 2023 due to much publicized mental health issues, it would actually be FIRST major gig since then.
There have been a couple of minor outings but he seems to have saved the big return for the Pyramid Stage. And, with his new single, ‘Survive’ dropping today it could be the highlight of the opening day.
Below are all the details you need to watch Lewis Capaldi and live stream Glastonbury 2025 for FREE and from anywhere.
How to watch the Secret Act at Glastonbury 2025 for FREE
The Secret Act set will be broadcast live and for FREE by the BBC in the U.K. That means it will also be streamed as it happens and on demand on its BBC iPlayer platform online.
iPlayer coverage of all Pyramid Stage acts — including the Secret Act’s — is available to stream in Ultra HD. As well as laptops, the service also has apps for smartphones, tablets and a wide range of streaming devices.
But, what if I’m traveling abroad right now? You can use a VPN to watch Glastonbury as if you were back home. NordVPN is our top pick of the options and we’ll show you how to access it below.

Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the potential Lewis Capaldi set on your usual subscription?
You can still watch this and all the other Glastonbury coverage live thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear as if they’re back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. So ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It’s the best on the market:
Exclusive deal
NordVPN deal: FREE $50 / £50 Amazon gift card
Boasting lightning fast speeds, great features, streaming power, and class-leading security, NordVPN is our #1 VPN.
✅FREE Amazon gift card worth up to $50/£50
✅4 months extra FREE!
✅76% off usual price
Use Nord to unblock BBC iPlayer and watch Glastonbury live online with our exclusive deal.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we’ve said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you’re away from the U.K. but want to view BBC iPlayer as usual, you’d select a U.K. server from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head over to BBC iPlayer and enjoy Capaldi’s set.
Can you watch Lewis Capaldi at Glastonbury in the U.S., Australia or Canada?
The Glastonbury Festival is only shown in the U.K. so you won’t find this Glastonbury set in any international listings.
However, if you’re currently on holiday in the U.S., Australia or Canada from the U.K.. You can download one of the best VPN services and tap into your FREE home coverage of Glastonbury 2025 through the BBC iPlayer. We recommend NordVPN.
Or if you’re content only to listen to the Secret Act set, you can do so via the BBC’s ‘pop-up radio station’ BBC Radio Glastonbury via BBC Sounds on web browsers.
