Preview: BST Hyde Park
After the success of last year, the Barclaycard British Summer Time festivals are back in Hyde Park with a line-up that is stronger than ever.
The first weekend is a blinder; Friday 19th is time for the Indie Cindys to let loose with The Strokes, Beck and Future Island; Saturday 20th for the Brit Pop babes with Blur, Metronomy and the Horrors; and Sunday 21st June brings Kylie and Grace Jones to the Park to sprinkle their pop glitter.
This year Hyde Park also hosts the BST midweek comedy, with shows from Rich Hall, Jim Jeffries, Jeff Byrne and Ardal O’Hanlan amongst an army of other funny men and women.
The second weekend has three equally eclectic events; Friday 26th is The Who, Paul Weller and Kaiser Chiefs; Saturday 27th is the new pop princes and princesses including Taylor Swift, Ellie Goulding and John Newman; Family Day, on June 28th has just added more acts including Union J (with Frozen singalong), Gaming Zone and Looney Tunes characters joining the collection of YouTube stars.
Tickets available separately for each event or with deals for multiple purchases.
