Workouts at a festivals might feel like the polar opposite of what you would expect revellers to do at the event, but there is a growing trend of people wanting to keep up with their exercise routines at music bashes.
Last year, pictures went viral of early-morning joggers doing laps around Worthy Farm before the gigs started. And yoga has always been a popular part of Glastonbury Festival's timetable.
But fitness fanatics are in for an extra treat this year, as the nation's favourite exercise teacher, Joe Wicks, has confirmed he'll host a group session on the Friday morning (June 23).

Taking to Instagram, he confirmed to his follower that he was going to the festival for the first time with his wife Rosie. He said: "I thought it'd be amazing to do a workout so I reached out to the organisers and said 'is there any sort of space?'.
"They've just got back to me and confirmed that on the Friday morning at 11.15am, I'm going to be doing a live PE with Joe workout in the Theatre and Circus area.
"They reckon a couple of thousand people could fit in. I'd love to see you there if you're at Glastonbury with your family or you're on your own or with your kids come along. It's going to be a really great way to start the weekend. I'm super excited."
It's fair to say that Joe and his wife are big fans of festivals after the pair met at Coachella and fell in love. He wrote on Instagram: "Our last day at Coachella. We came here 7 years ago when we first met and fell in love. It’s been a special place for us ever since. Shout out to my mum for having our kids so we could party together again."
There will be lots of surprises in store for revellers at Glastonbury this year including the event's new area made entirely out of vintage cars that will imitate Stonehenge. At the festival on Thursday, June 22, a dance troupe of 'African Mutoids' from Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, will perform at the centre of the henges dressed in scrap and playing percussion instruments made of rubbish.
Elton John will close Glastonbury this year as he headlines the pyramid stage on Sunday night. The Rocket Man has chosen Worthy Farm for his last ever UK performance and his final stop for his Yellow Brick Road tour.
