Bon Jovi booked as first headliner for BST Hyde Park 2027
The anticipation for the next edition of the British Summer Time festival is officially soaring, as rock titans Bon Jovi have been announced as the headliners for the 2027 instalment of BST Hyde Park.
This monumental return to the iconic Hyde Park stage marks a full-circle moment, building on the band’s history with the festival, which began with an unforgettable performance in 2013.
Bon Jovi is bringing their incredible ‘Forever Tour’ to the UK capital, promising a spectacular celebration of their legendary catalogue and the enduring power of live music. This isn’t just a concert; it’s a reflection of decades of rock history and fan devotion.
The ‘Forever Tour’ itself is a masterclass in musical collaboration, featuring a stellar group of artists. The tour has connected fans with a diverse array of talent, including Bruce Springsteen, Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, Jason Isbell, Carín León, Robbie Williams, and Avril Lavigne, alongside other celebrated figures.
The joy radiating from the band is palpable. Jon Bon Jovi expressed deep gratitude for the opportunity, noting that returning to Hyde Park is a truly special experience, reflecting on the history they share with the venue and the incredible energy of the UK crowd.
“We have a storied history with performing at Hyde Park on previous tours and it’s a full circle moment to be returning to BST Hyde Park, 14 years after headlining the very first festival,” Jon Bon Jovi shared, emphasizing the unique connection between the band and the festival.
The tour also follows a period of personal triumph, with Bon Jovi confirming that the frontman has fully recovered from vocal cord surgery in 2022, ready to deliver the powerful performances fans have been waiting for.
Jim King, CEO of AEG Presents, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the band’s status as one of the defining rock bands of their generation, whose live show remains as powerful and compelling as ever.
For those ready to experience this epic musical journey, tickets go on sale on Friday, October 23, at 10am BST. It’s an invitation to join the celebration and make more memories together at Hyde Park.
