Prince Louis made a
surprise appearance at this year’s Glastonbury music festival at
Worthy Farm in Somerset – but it’s not what you think!
The four-year-old’s face was
spotted on a flag which was flown by a festival-goer in the crowd at rock band
Skunk Anansie’s set on Saturday.
Printed on the flag was a
photo of the young prince which was captured during the Queen’s Platinum
Jubilee celebrations earlier this month. The now-famous snap shows Louis
covering his ears with his hands while watching the military planes fly over
Buckingham Palace during Trooping the Colour, which took place on 2 June.
The flag caught the eye of TV
presenter Laura Whitmore, who was watching the performance from the VIP area.
Taking to her Instagram Stories, the Love Island host shared a video
of the flag waving in the wind alongside the caption, “Best flag at Glasto”
– and we can’t help but agree!
While Prince Louis wasn’t in
attendance at the famous music festival on Saturday, his father, Prince
William, has previously expressed a desire to get his hands on a ticket.

Speaking to the BBC in April
2017, the Duke admitted he and his wife, the Duchess of Cambridge, are
both “really into music,” before adding: “unfortunately it’s
quite tricky [to go to concerts].”
He continued: “I talked
about going to Glastonbury because I am really into my music and Catherine as
well. We talked about going to Glastonbury.
“[But] I’ve got into
enough trouble for my dancing recently so it’s probably best to keep away
from that.”
While the Cambridges weren’t
spotted at the festival this year, they were recently seen laughing away in a
new photo released by Kensington Palace in order to mark Father’s Day
last weekend.
The snap, which was taken when
the family visited Jordan on holiday back in 2021, features Prince William
posing in the sand with his arms around his eldest children Prince George,
eight, and Princess Charlotte, seven, while Louis sits on his father’s
shoulders.
