words by Nicola O'Connell

The British Summer Time (BST) festival returns this year bringing some incredible artists for 2025’s line-up who are not to be missed out on. Taking place in Hyde Park, running from the 27th of June up until the 13th of July, the festival will be seeing headliners such as Olivia Rodrigo, Zach Bryan, Noah Kahan, Sabrina Carpenter, and Jeff Lynne’s ELO. With a crowd size of around 65,000+ people to entertain, the headliners will be supported by artists such as Beabadoobee, Clairo, Olivia Dean to name a few.

Last year consisted of the likes of Stevie Nicks, SZA, Robbie Williams, Kylie, STRAY KIDS and Shania Twain. Each year the festival manages to pull together an epic lot of artists giving the London goers an incredible day out of music, fun and sun.

27th June: Olivia Rodrigo,
The Last Dinner Party & girl in red & more TBA

Friday the 27th June will see Olivia Rodrigo take to the stage alongside The Last Dinner Party and girl in red with other acts to still be announced. After her super successful 2024 with taking her ‘Guts’ album on a world tour, BST ‘25 will be Olivia Rodrigo’s biggest UK show to date. Having created such a name for herself over the previous years it’ll be exciting to see Olivia take on such a crowd and I’m sure she’ll put on an incredible show.

For fans who cannot make the BST Festival, Olivia Rodrigo will also be performing in Brazil, Mexico City, Ireland and Manchester with her ‘Guts’ tour. For more information click HERE.

28th and 29th June: Zach Bryan
& more TBA.

American country singer, Zach Bryan, will be hitting the stage on both Saturday and Sunday of the 28th and 29th. Tickets are still currently available for the Sunday so if you don’t want to miss out I suggest snapping up some tickets now as the event is sure to sell out. With no supports yet announced for the days, we can only hope for more country artists on this line-up. With artists like Beyonce and Post Malone hitting the country scene recently it’s introducing a whole load of new fans to the genre. I look forward to coming back and sharing who else will be joining Zach Bryan on his days in Hyde Park, London.

Find tickets Zach Bryan at BST Hyde Park HERE.

4th July: Noah Kahan & TBA.

American singer-songwriter Noah Kahan will be taking over Hyde Park on the 4th of July with special guest Gracie Abrams. The folk rock/pop star sought huge success after the release of his album ‘Stick Season’, of which the single of the same name found huge popularity through TikTok. Earning himself awards such a Best New Artist (alt or rock) and Top Billboard 200 Album, Noah Kahan is currently nominated for a Brit Award for Best International Song with ‘Stick Season’. 

Special guest Gracie Abrams is about to hit the UK with her ‘The Secret of Us Tour’ starting in Nottingham on the 3rd March and finishing up in Glasgow on the 13th March. Not only has Gracie Abrams opened up for megastar Taylor Swift on her Era’s tour, she’s also collaborated with the likes of Benny Blanco, Aaron Dessner and as of recently, Selena Gomez.

5th & 6th July: Sabrina Carpenter, Clairo, Beabadoobee & Olivia Dean.

Two-time Grammy winner Sabrina Carpenter will be joining the already fantastic list of names who will be gracing Hyde Park this summer on the 5th July. With her initial Saturday 5th selling out, a second show has been added for the Sunday 6th and with tickets still available I’d advise to grab them quick before they go because it’s sure to sell out.
On the Saturday, Sabrina Carpenter will be joined by Clairo and Beabadoobee with Clairo returning for the Sunday date alongside Olivia Dean. With so many more artists to be announced the BST events are already looking to be incredible days out not to be missed this summer.

With her ‘Short & Sweet Tour!’ about to kick-start in the UK, having sold out fast on several dates, BST festival may be fans last chance to catch her in the UK this year. So if you don’t want to miss out, head on over to the BST website HERE to buy tickets.
