The London festival welcomed the likes of Stevie Nicks, Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams and Shania Twain this summer, and next year’s bill looks equally impressive.
Here’s all you need to know about who’s playing BST Hyde Park 2025, and how you can get hold of tickets.
Zach Bryan | 28 June
US country star Zach Bryan will take to the BST Hyde Park stage on 28 June, marking his first headline performance at a UK festival.
The 28-year-old began his career by uploading videos to YouTube, but broke into the mainstream with his self-titled 2023 album, which topped the American charts and earned Bryan his first Grammy.
This year’s follow-up, The Great American Bar Scene, included collaborations with with the likes of Bruce Springsteen, John Mayer and John Moreland. It reached number 16 on the UK album chart, making it his most successful LP in the UK to date.
Jeff Lynne’s Electric Light Orchestra | 13 July
Jeff Lynne’s Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) will say a “final goodbye” to touring with a hit-filled set at BST Hyde Park on 13 July.
The rock group, best known for songs including Mr. Blue Sky, Livin’ Thing and Evil Woman, were formed in Birmingham in 1970 by Lynne and keyboardist Roy Wood. Richard Tandy, who had been bassist but became the keyboardist after Wood’s departure, died at the age of 76 earlier this year.
The band split in 1986 but Lynne reformed the band in 2014. They have since released two comeback albums, Alone in the Universe and From Out of Nowhere, and performed a memorable set as part of Glastonbury’s ‘legends’ slot’ in 2016.
In a statement, Lynne, 76, said: “My return to touring began at Hyde Park in 2014. It seems like the perfect place to do our final show. We couldn’t be more excited to share this special night in London with our UK fans. As the song goes, ‘We’re gonna do it One More Time’.”
The musician was made an OBE in the 2020 Queen’s Birthday Honours list for services to music, and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2015.
BST Hyde Park will take place between June and July 2025
