Bon Jovi to headline BST Hyde Park in 2027

Bon Jovi will return to BST Hyde Park in London on Thursday 24^th June 2027 as the first confirmed headliner for next year’s festival, 14 years after they headlined its inaugural edition in 2013. The show is billed as the band’s only UK date, and tickets go on general sale on Friday 23^rd October at 10am.

Several pre-sales will run before general sale. An American Express pre-sale opens on Monday 19^th October at 1pm, followed by an artist pre-sale on Wednesday 21^st October at 10am and an AEG pre-sale on Thursday 22^nd October at 10am. The full line-up for the day has yet to be announced.

The 2027 date follows the band’s Forever Tour, which in 2026 included nine nights at Madison Square Garden in New York, shows in Edinburgh and Dublin, and three nights at Wembley Stadium in London. Bon Jovi also released Forever (Legendary Edition), which reworks songs from their album Forever with guest artists including Bruce Springsteen, Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, Jason Isbell, Carín León, Joe Elliott, Robbie Williams and Avril Lavigne.

Frontman Jon Bon Jovi said: “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. The Forever Tour has been an incredible celebration of the music and the fans who have been with us all these years. There’s nothing quite like the energy of a UK crowd, and the joy and excitement we shared with our fans this summer was something truly special. To bring that energy back to Hyde Park means a lot to us. We’re grateful for every one of you and can’t wait to make more memories together.”

Jim King, chief executive of AEG Presents UK and European Festivals, which promotes the event, said: “Bon Jovi helped launch BST Hyde Park in 2013, and it’s a pleasure to welcome them back. They are one of the defining rock bands of their generation, with an extraordinary catalogue of hits and a live show that remains as powerful and compelling as ever. They continue to connect with audiences around the world, making this rare return to Hyde Park a genuinely special occasion.”

The band, formed in 1983, have been inducted into both the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

BST Hyde Park, sponsored by American Express, began in 2013 with a line-up that included The Rolling Stones, Bon Jovi and Lionel Richie. This year’s programme featured Garth Brooks, ATEEZ, Maroon 5, Mumford & Sons, Duran Duran, Pitbull and Lewis Capaldi. Each headliner is normally supported by other artists across several stages.
