Watch Incredible Backflip Landing Before Circle Pit at The Prodigy’s Glastonbury 2025 Set

An unforgettable moment as a fan nails a perfect backflip just before the circle pit erupts at The Prodigy’s epic Glastonbury 2025 performance.

A Night to Remember at Glastonbury 2025

The legendary electronic group The Prodigy took the stage at Glastonbury 2025’s Other Stage on Sunday night, June 29th, delivering a powerful, high-energy set that left the crowd buzzing. The band dedicated their performance to their late vocalist Keith Flint, honoring his legacy in front of a massive, wild crowd closing out the festival.

The evening was a sonic journey through The Prodigy’s career, lighting up the night with tracks ranging from the adrenaline-pumping “Light Up The Sky” from their 2018 album No Tourists, to the gritty “Get Your Fight On” from 2015’s The Day Is My Enemy. Fans were also treated to timeless classics like “No Good (Start The Dance)”, “Firestarter”, and “Breathe” — all delivered with the signature fierce energy The Prodigy are known for.

The Show-Stealing Backflip in the Circle Pit

But the spotlight wasn’t just on the band. A jaw-dropping moment from the crowd has been making waves online: a fan flawlessly performing a backflip right before a circle pit erupted.

Picture this: the sun setting behind her as she stands in the center of a swirling ring of festivalgoers. The beat drops — and she launches into an impeccable backflip, landing it with absolute precision just as the pit closes in. The energy and timing are perfect, creating an electrifying snapshot of festival magic.

Honoring Keith Flint and The Prodigy’s Return

This Glastonbury marked The Prodigy’s first appearance at the festival since the tragic passing of Keith Flint in March 2019. Flint was a vibrant and beloved frontman whose death at age 49 shocked fans worldwide. The band had planned to play in 2019 but canceled their performance following his death.

Liam Howlett reflected on the difficult decision to return to live performances without Flint:

“After losing Keith, we couldn’t even think or talk about the band. I think it was two years after his death that me and Maxim started bringing it up. ‘Could we play live again? Did we even want to? Why? How?’ All that shit.”
— Liam Howlett

He continued, “The only way to know how we would feel was to do it: get back on stage and do a bunch of gigs. It was so hard to walk onto that stage without our brother, but we really felt the crowd with us. Those gigs were highly emotionally charged but we came out the other end with our answer.”

The festival also featured a heartfelt artistic tribute to Keith Flint in the Carhenge area, a nod to his enduring impact on fans and the music scene.

Upcoming Tour and Other Festival Highlights

Looking ahead, The Prodigy is gearing up to headline a UK and Ireland arena tour in 2026, alongside the iconic DJ Carl Cox. Fans eager to catch their raw live energy can find tour dates and tickets online.
