He performed Thrift Shop to massive cheers and ended his set with Can't Hold Us, during which he stage dived.
Nineteen-year-old Jake Bugg also played the main stage.
"It was brilliant, it blew my mind," he said. "Looking at the line-up I didn't think people would be interested to see me. But they seemed to really appreciate. Blew me away.
"You see different pockets of the crowd and its funny when you think they are cheering for you but really it's because they've just seen the camera," he joked.
