Pop star Olivia Rodrigo is headlining the BST Hyde Park concert series in London this Friday, June 27, 2025. It will be her biggest UK show to date and has sent her fans into overdrive online.
A career high for the 20-year-old singer, Rodrigo took center stage at the historic Hyde Park venue. Building her reputation on wonderfully introspective lyrical words and stirring vocals, Rodrigo has stacked up numerous fans globally with obvious streaks like “Drivers License,” “traitor,” and “good 4 u.”
This BST Hyde Park concert comes as part of Rodrigo’s expansive “GUTS” world tour, celebrating her chart-topping second album, GUTS. Upon its release, critical acclaim showed Rodrigo’s maturation as an artist; GUTS did, in fact, connect to a passionate, young fanbase. This show promises to be a moment of celebration both for Rodrigo and the fans who have taken so strongly to her music.
Supporting Rodrigo will be two great opening acts, rounding out the night’s dynamic lineup. The British indie-rock quintet The Last Dinner Party and Norwegian singer-songwriter girl in red will open the evening, setting the tone with their respective distinctive sounds. Girl in Red is especially noted for her viral hit “we fell in love in october,” bringing an emotionally touching flair to the night, while the indie-rock eclectic flair of The Last Dinner Party sends it off with an energizing kickoff.
BST Hyde Park has been a staple in combining intimate concert vibes with the grand scale of an outdoor festival, making for a fans’ dream come true. As for premium access, the concert has a range of different tickets one can avail themselves of. General admission starts at £79.95, while exclusive VIP packages such as the Diamond VIP Experience are going for £299.95. Presales begin on November 11, 2024, for American Express cardholders, followed by a presale via Live Nation on November 14. General sales open to the public on November 15, 2024, at 9 a.m. GMT.
BST Hyde Park is an institution in London’s summertime concert calendar, running across several weekends and attracting A-list talent year in and year out. In addition to Rodrigo, 2025’s lineup hosts a number of big-name music acts from across genres. It will be followed by Hugh Jackman’s favorite show tunes on July 6. On the other hand, country star Zach Bryan is set to appear for two nights starting on June 28 and going into June 29. Then, there is Jeff Lynne’s Electric Light Orchestra-possibly the most breathtaking moment with their last live performance ever on July 13, which will be some kind of emotional goodbye to them.
Meanwhile indie American folk-pop artist Noah Kahan will headline July 4, supported by Gracie Abrams. A true force to be told, Olivia Rodrigo has taken today’s musical landscape by storm. With raw, relatable lyrics and genre-defining pop-punk in tow, Rodrigo has managed to resonate with a whole generation, slotting her as one of the most important voices in today’s musical landscape. Her upcoming BST Hyde Park show is shaping up to be one of summer festival circuit’s most-anticipated events for 2025, offering up a mix of chart-topping hits, fresh sounds from supporting acts, and an atmosphere that only BST Hyde Park can deliver.
