RAYE headlined a sold-out Pilton Party, with Inhaler second on the bill

RAYE headlined the 2025 Pilton Party, the fundraising show Glastonbury Festival puts on at Worthy Farm each year as a thank you to villagers, workers and local people. The festival announced her on 24 July for the Friday 5 September date, billing her as a multi-BRIT-winning singer-songwriter.

Inhaler, the Dublin indie-rock four-piece, was announced alongside her, with local support acts and DJ sets from Baggy Mondays and Patmandu filling out the rest of the night on the open-air stage.

Tickets went on sale at 10am on Saturday 9 August through See Tickets and in person at the festival shop, at £45 for adults and £20 for children. A shuttle excursion ticket, £55 for adults and £30 for children, bundled entry with return coaches from Glastonbury Town Hall and Shepton Mallet Cenotaph, running to the site between 5pm and 7pm and back from 11pm. The show sold out ahead of the date.

Pilton Party was established in 1984 and takes place on a stage close to the ground Woodsies occupies during Glastonbury itself. Past bills have carried the Stone Roses, Coldplay, Massive Attack, Catatonia, Fatboy Slim, Plan B, Liam Gallagher, Rudimental, Wolf Alice, Placebo, Bastille, the Streets, the Libertines and Foals.

There is no camping at the event. Accessible provision included a carer ticket on request through the festival access team, accessible parking, an accessible entry gate staffed by access stewards, a viewing platform, and step-free composting toilets.

RAYE went on to headline the Reading festival for the first time the following year. Photographs from the Worthy Farm night are in our report on the 2025 Pilton Party, and the bills we are following sit in the festival tracker beside the rest of our pop coverage.
