    Adding another layer of pre-show content, ahead of the main event, a special 10-minute short film created by creative director Rory Dewar will offer an exclusive glimpse into the creative energy leading up to the concert. After this preview, the full show will be available on YouTube for everyone to enjoy.

    The weekend lineup is stacked with talent. In addition to Capaldi, the dates feature a lineup of incredible support acts, including Jacob Alon and Conan Gray, who will be joining him at both performances. The July 11 slot at BST will feature an impressive ensemble, including The Vaccines, Absolutely, Nieve Ella, Tyler Ballgame, Kerr Mercer, NECKBREAKERS, Benjamin Steer, Luz, Sebastian Croft, and Luke La Volpe.

    This livestream is more than just a concert; it’s a monumental celebration of music reaching its global potential, turning a weekend in Hyde Park into a shared, worldwide experience for everyone who loves Lewis Capaldi‘s music.
