Fans are convinced he will be making a 'surprise' appearance at the huge music event - especially as he has done it before.
Dave Grohl, 56, has sent fans into a spin after posing for a photo with US singer Amanda Palmer at London's Royal Albert Hall.
Amanda was backstage at a gig by rock band Yeah Yeah Yeahs when she bumped into the Foo Fighters legend.
After grabbing Dave for a photo, she shared it on social media and told her followers: "Well I'll be damned. Not who I expected to run into backstage at the Yeah Yeah Yeah's show in London tonight, but look, it's Dave Grohl.
She added: "We shared a sweet conversation mostly singing the cosmic praises of Melissa auf der Maur, whose magnificence truly obscures both of us.
"It was really nice to meet you, Dave."
Writing on Reddit, fans have been quick to make the connection between Dave's trip to London and next week's Glastonbury Festival.
In 2023, a mystery act called The Churn Ups caused a stir when they featured on the Pyramid Stage bill.
Fans went into a frenzy trying to work out who the band was, before they were eventually unmasked as The Foo Fighters.
Starting a new thread on Reddit, music fans are now convinced Dave will be making another surprise appearance at Glastonbury.
Fans slam Glastonbury as 'worst one ever' as full lineup announced
One wrote: "Dave Grohl is in London, likely will be at the festival. Has done bits with John Fogerty in the past and other acts. Surely will be popping up at places this year?"
Another replied: "Drumming for Alanis Morrisette possibly? Tribute for Taylor Hawkins?"
And a third added: "100% will be milling about - I'd say a couple of guest appearances are a safe bet. Maybe Alanis for a song or Neil Young for an encore."
The Foo Fighters' surprise Glastonbury set in 2023 was the first time the band had been at the festival since headlining in 2017.
It was also their first major gig in the UK following the death of the band's drummer Taylor Hawkins, who passed away in March 2022 aged 50.
Taylor had joined The Foo Fighters in 1997 and, prior to that, was the drummer on Alanis Morrissette's tour.
Canadian musician Alanis is listed to perform on the Pyramid Stage at 6.15pm next Friday (June 27), which would be the perfect time for Dave to appear.
Other headliners this year include The 1975, Neil Young, Olivia Rodrigo, Charli XCX, Doechii and The Prodigy.
Glastonbury 2025 - confirmed acts so far
TICKETS to the 2025 festival sold out in just minutes before some of the acts were even confirmed. Here is who has been confirmed so far.
Confirmed headliners: The 1975 will take to the Pyramid Stage on Friday.
Neil Young will headline the festival for the second time after his last set in 2009 on Saturday after RAYE makes her return.
Charli xcx will headline the Other Stage on Saturday night.
On Sunday, Olivia Rodrigo is due to belt out her hits for her first appearance while Rod Stewart will perform in the legends slot.
More acts to appear on the Other Stage include Loyle Carner and The Prodigy.
Doechii will make her Glastonbury debut on the West Holts Stage on Saturday night.
Other names confirmed include Noah Kahan, Alanis Morissette, Gracie Abrams, Busta Rhymes, Lola Young, Brandi Carlile, Myles Smith, En Vogue, Amaarae, Cymande, Shaboozey, Osees and Gary Numan.
Rod Stewart will also be performing in the Legends slot, having previously headlined at Worthy Farm 23 years ago.
This week, the rock icon revealed in an interview how much he is being paid to perform this year - and how much he is set to lose.
Rod told the Radio Times: "It was about eight months ago when I was asked to do it, maybe a little longer. But it didn't fit with my schedule because I've got to bring everybody back from America.
"It's going to cost me £300,000 to do it and they only pay you about 120,000 quid. So it's going to cost me."

Dua Lipa shocks fans by bringing 90s singer on stage as she stuns in diamonte bodysuit in front of star-studded crowd
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DUA Lipa gave her fans a surprise by bringing a 90s band on stage in front of a star-studded crowd. The singer, 29, stunned in a diamonte bodysuit as she performed at Wembley Stadium. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Dua Lipa wowed at Wembley in a diamonte bodysuit Credit: Getty 4 She emulated her idol Madonna with an impressive achievement Credit: Getty 4 90s icon Jay Kay of Jamiroquai made a surprise appearance Credit: Getty However, Dua's fans were in for a total shock when she brought out legendary 90s band Jamiroquai. Formed in 1992, vocalist Jay Kay, 55, fronts the acid jazz and funk band. Jay arrived wearing a black hat with purple trim, purple trousers and white fringe jacket. One fan wrote online: "She brought out Jamiroquai! She did that for me." Another shared: "Just saw Dua Lipa bring Jamiroquai out at Wembley. Some month and I haven't even got to glasto yet." It comes as Dua has emulated her idol Madonna by playing the iconic venue aged just 29. Dua's first UK gig was at a 375-people capacity venue in Hackney nine years ago. She is the same age as Madonna was when she headlined Wembley in 1987 as part of her Who's That Girl Tour. Just five other women — Beyonce, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Adele and Pink — have headlined the venue. Only Swift and Rihanna were younger than Dua, both performing there aged 28. 'Shaken' Dua Lipa in terrifying security scare after fans sneak into her hotel and are found outside her bedroom An insider told The Sun: 'Playing Wembley is a dream come true for Dua and to sell out both nights feels incredible. She's not even at the peak yet and has so much more she wants to achieve. 'To be headlining stadiums with just three albums under her belt proves how influential her music has been. Her world tour has been a huge success. She's on cloud nine.' Elsewhere, Lidl has recreated Dua Lipa's viral pickle and jalapeño juice Cola drink. The superstar previously divided fans after sharing her unusual recipe on TikTok. At the time, celebrities like Gordon Ramsay and Prue Leith even tried the concoction for themselves. In a post that received over 11.5K views Gordon mixed Dua Lipa's recommended spicy ingredients in with his Diet Coke, and took a large sip - only to end up spitting it out in disgust. "Dua Lipa, for God's sake, girl!" he shouted while coughing. Dua Lipa's love life: A history Who has Dua Lipa dated in the past? Isaac Carew Dua dated the British model and chef twice. The started dating in 2015 before splitting up two years later due to scheduling issues. They rekindled their romance in 2018 before splitting for good a year later. Paul Klein After she broke up from Isaac in 2017, she embarked on a new relationship that same year with the musician. They broke up after just five months of dating in 2018. Anwar Hadid One of her most high-profile relationships was with Anwar Hadid, brother of supermodels Gigi and Bella Hadid. Although they quarantined together during the COVID-19 Pandemic they called it quits in 2021 as Dua wanted to focus on being single Jack Harlow In December 2022, it was claimed that both of the music pairing were 'hanging out' together. Although after a few months it seemed that the relationship fizzled out. Romain Gavras The French director was first linked to Dua back in 2023 when they were seen in London leaving the BAFTA Awards afterparty together in February. They later walked the red carpet together at the Cannes Film Festival in May. They were later pictured together over the summer that year in July and August as they celebrated his birthday. She has since deleted mentions of him off of her Instagram. Callum Turner In January 2024, Callum celebrated the release of his Apple TV+ series, Masters of Air. The pair were spotted together at the afterparty of the premiere in Los Angeles. They were then spotted getting close on a number of dates. Insiders since revealed that the duo have travelled together and have met each other's families. The pair then became more public with their relationship before rumours circulated of an engagement over the festive period. The singer appeared to confirm the news on social media, posting a photo with her huge ring in plain sight. "You'll ruin your vocal cords, s***," the restaurateur warned to the singer before ending the video. Speaking to Lorraine Kelly on ITV, Prue's verdict was: "The drink was 'far too sweet'". Continuing, the Bake Off judge added she "liked the jalapenos", but thought it could be improved with "a little bit of vinegar" to balance flavourss.

Luke Humphries has say on ‘fartgate' in message to rival James Wade after Players Championship darts win
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) JAMES WADE has proved that flatulent glee gets you everywhere - after the jubilant 'Fartgate' flinger won the support of Luke Humphries. The Machine shrugged off controversy over his loud and less than proud intervention against Peter Wright by winning Players Championship 19. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 James Wade roared back to win PC19 after a pong row at PC17 Credit: Getty 2 Luke Humphries was quick off the mark with a cheeky repl. Credit: Getty Wade trumped Scott Williams in the final to move back up to World No. 8. The English oche ace was so overjoyed to be on-song after his pong that he posted a message on X. And he got a surprise reply from Cool Hand, offering him congratulations - albeit with a mischievous twist... Wade, 42, wrote: "Good Morning everyone. Wow!! I'm over the moon you can't believe. READ MORE ON JAMES WADE STAR'S BATTLE Darts star, 42, feared he'd never play again after serious health scare "I played well in all games this week and last night was the high I've been aiming for!! Celebrations all round. "As always, thank you to all my supporters and the kind comments. "Thank you to my sponsors and management team!" World No.1 Humphries quickly pinged the pong-row flinger a cheeky response. BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK The 2024 Ally Pally king said: "Great farts mate!! I mean 'Darts'." However, fans managed to be even less subtle than Humphries with their rip-ostes. James Wade names two darts stars who should NOT have been invited into Premier League darts One wrote: "You have blown all your opponents away, the smell of success is strong when your on stage." Another mused: "Must be great to let off a bit if steam, although Peter Wright might not agree." The farting furore exploded live on TV during Players Championship 17 when Wade let rip during a 6-5 victory over Wright. Snakebite might be better suited to dealing with stings than stinks - but he initially laughed it off. Referee Owen Binks reminded them "this is a streamed match, guys". Wade then suggested his Scottish opponent 'Give it a second' before he returned to the oche. But Snakebite appeared to believe that time period was a clear under-estimate. Wade went on to not just nick that match but get better as the week wore on - at darts, that is - peaking with the PC19 crown. Yet incredibly it's the second time the Surrey star has been caught in a storm of his own brewing. That blast from the past was at the Players Championship last September when he blamed the noise on velcro from his new trainers.
