BST Hyde Park 2026: A Summer of Legendary Music

BST Hyde Park Festival 2026 returns to the iconic Hyde Park, London, throughout June and July 2026, for another summer of world-class live music in one of the capital’s most historic green spaces. Backed by American Express Presents BST, the festival is famous for its stunning open-air stage, lush parkland setting, and star-studded line-ups that blend global superstars, British icons, and next-generation talent.

Each year, BST unfolds over several weekends, with individual headline days curated around different genres — from pop, rock and soul to country, indie, and R&B. Hyde Park transforms into a city within a city: gourmet food markets, craft bars, shaded chill zones, and VIP terraces complement the music, while Open House events during the week keep the park buzzing with free outdoor film screenings, yoga sessions, street food and family-friendly activities.

The 2026 headliners are yet to be announced, but judging by previous years, expectations are sky-high. The 2025 edition drew record crowds for performances by Taylor Swift, Coldplay, Shania Twain, Kings of Leon, Stevie Nicks, Morgan Wallen, Kylie Minogue, Duran Duran, and Andrea Bocelli, reaffirming BST’s reputation as the UK’s premier destination for iconic live shows. Past line-ups have featured legends such as Elton John, Adele, Bruce Springsteen, The Rolling Stones, Billy Joel, and Alicia Keys — a testament to its unmatched calibre and production values.

The experience is as refined as the line-up: spacious viewing areas, first-class sound, and an atmosphere that balances festival excitement with London sophistication. Whether you’re picnicking on the grass with friends or standing front-row for a once-in-a-lifetime set, every BST day feels like a celebration of music at its grandest scale.

Getting there couldn’t be easier — Hyde Park sits in central London, just minutes from Marble Arch, Hyde Park Corner, and Knightsbridge Tube stations, with hotels, restaurants and nightlife surrounding the site.

With its unique blend of heritage, elegance, and headline power, BST Hyde Park 2026 promises another unforgettable summer of music under the London sky — where timeless artists meet a timeless setting.
