Earlier this week, hundreds of thousands of festival-goers headed to Worthy Farm to celebrate the UK's biggest and best festival yet.

Now, while we're all obviously buzzing to see some of our favourite music acts take to the stage, us unlucky lot at home have also been treated to a whole bunch of iconic Glasto crowd moments since the antics kicked off on Wednesday (26 June).

We've already been left in stitches at one five-year-old's conic response to a live interview question and the latest funny moment sees one 10-week-old baby capture the full attention of the festival crowd, with the parents now revealing their hilariously devious plan for the footage.

The newborn, named Finlay, totally stole the show as Annie Mac opened the Other Stage at Glastonbury Festival today (28 June).

Little Finlay was met with an eruption of cheers as he appeared on the big screen multiple times while the DJ opened with her hour-long set of dance hits earlier this morning.

Smashing the festi fashion, the bub was rocking blye striped one-piece pyjamas and yellow ear protectors as he sat on top of his dad Tom Kay’s shoulders while special effects on stage saw his image turn into a hallucinatory dance visual.

Mac herself was even impressed by the tot telling the crowd: "Oh my god, this baby, what a little legend.

She signed off her performance by thanking 'everyone, Glastonbury and this baby'.

Tom, 39, has since opened up about the adorable moment, telling the PA news agency: "[Finlay] was loving the music, so we thought we’d put him on my shoulders, he was just enjoying the vibes and then was on the big screen and got a big cheer – it’s amazing.

Finlay’s mum, Rosie Lewis, 35, also revealed she plans to play out his moment of techno fame on his wedding day as well as his 18th and 21st birthdays in years to come.

The couple, who have also brought their 10-year-old daughter Sofia, are only at the festival by chance after they won a competition for tickets through The Guardian.

"You had to nominate a friend that you thought was worthy of winning tickets," Rosie said, explaining she put her partner’s name down.

"I had just given birth in the hospital, I thought he’ll never win, but he might get an email saying 'Rosie’s nominated you for being worthy of winning Glastonbury tickets' and make him feel good about himself – then he won them."

Asked what tips they would give to parents thinking of bringing their young children to a festival, Rosie said: "Do it – you can overthink it and it can put you off.

"But take more nappies than you think you’ll need and take more vests and outfits than you think you’ll need."

And Finlay's older sister, Sofia, who is at her third Glastonbury since 2016, added that Kidzfield - an area of the festival dedicated to under-12s, including music lessons, face painting and storytelling - is a good shout too.
