Glastonbury Festival web cam excites fans as sign spotted on Pyramid Stage

Eagle-eyed fans have spotted what appears to be an "old school" peace sign on top of the Pyramid Stage, as the Glastonbury Festival 2022 set-up continues.

Hundreds of thousands of festival-goers are once again expected to flock to Worthy Farm next week, as the five-day live music event makes an epic comeback after two years of cancellations due to the pandemic.

"I like it, but of a throwback." One person responded: "If only the peace symbol didn't have to be brought out in 2022."

Another post shared on a Twitter account called 'Glastonbury Festival Fans' today read: "Well, it looks like the peace sign is going on the top front of the pyramid stage. I wonder if we will see a sunflower on the front?"
