Having performed at the inaugural BST Hyde Park festival back in 2013, Bon Jovi will return to the Great Oak stage next year as part of their ‘Forever Tour’.
Jon Bon Jovi and co. are set to take to the stage on Thursday, June 24 as the first confirmed headliners to be announced for the upcoming edition of the outdoor concert series.
“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,” said the frontman.
“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, CEO of AEG Presents, added: “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.”
Special guests for the show are yet to be announced.
