Other stage, 11.30
The pairing of classical music and rave nostalgia seems to be in vogue at the moment. The Hacienda Classical, Back to Basics with the Orchestra of the Opera North and the hilariously-named Cream Classical all reinterpret club classics with a full ensemble and guest vocalists. Representing the trend at Glastonbury 2025 are drum‘n’bass legends Fabio & Grooverider, who today open a packed-out Other stage, accompanied by the Outlook Orchestra.

“We’re gonna take you through time, we’re gonna give you a history of jungle and D’n’B!” bellows the guest MC, GQ, while Fabio and Grooverider take their place behind the decks in the centre of the orchestra. And indeed they do: the gun finger-poised, bucket hat-clad crowd are treated to an hour of old favourites, beefed up by live amen breaks, big horns and soaring strings.
