Glastonbury Secret Set Odds: Haim and Lewis Capaldi
The Glastonbury secret set odds had Haim and Lewis Capaldi as favourites, and both delivered, with Pulp revealed as Patchwork and Lorde opening at Woodsies.
Last Updated 4 weeks ago
Outcome: Both favourites delivered. Lewis Capaldi made an emotional Pyramid Stage return on the Friday and Haim played the Park Stage on the Saturday, while “Patchwork” was revealed as Pulp and Lorde opened Friday at Woodsies. The long-shot Oasis (16/1) reunion did not happen.
The excitement over Glastonbury’s mystery acts reached fever pitch in 2025, with Haim and Lewis Capaldi leading the betting for the festival’s coveted secret-set slots.
The two market leaders
The latest odds made Haim strong favourites at 1/9 (90%), with Lewis Capaldi close behind at 1/7 (87.5%), the two most likely names to fill a surprise slot.
The sister trio from Los Angeles, known for their high-energy, festival-friendly sound, had already been spotted in the UK ahead of the weekend.
Capaldi, who stepped back from touring in 2023 over his health, fuelled speculation with a series of cryptic social-media posts hinting at a return.
Haim and Capaldi are dominating the market, and punters are clearly split. Haim’s movements suggest they’re in prime position, but the volume of bets coming in for Capaldi shows fans haven’t ruled out an emotional return to the Pyramid Stage. This is one of the most closely followed Glasto secret sets in years.
The rest of the market
Other names in the mix included Pulp at 2/5 (71.4%), following their comeback tour, and Lorde at evens (50%), last seen at the festival in 2017. Ed Sheeran (4/6) and Mumford & Sons (11/10) also featured.
For the dreamers there was a glimmer of hope for Oasis at 16/1 (5.9%), long but not impossible, with any appearance from the Gallagher brothers sure to send Worthy Farm into meltdown.
