Festival News: Mumford & Sons to headline BST Hyde Park 2026
American Express presents BST Hyde Park is delighted to welcome Mumford & Sons back to the Great Oak Stage on Saturday 4 July 2026 - ten years since their last legendary appearance.
For a band born in West London’s grassroots music scene, this is more than a show. It’s a homecoming. They will be joined by special guest The War On Drugs, with more artists to be revealed. Tickets on sale Thursday 4 December at 10am.
Mumford & Sons have travelled the world since 2008, headlining festivals, topping charts, and collaborating with icons like Dylan, Springsteen and Neil Young. But London has always been the band’s anchor, and Hyde Park remains one of their most cherished stages.
Their upcoming album Prizefighter, arriving 13 February, was created with Aaron Dessner at Long Pond Studio and features Hozier, Gracie Abrams, Chris Stapleton and Gigi Perez. It follows RUSHMERE, their 2025 UK No. 1 album that powered a sold-out global arena tour.
Mumford & Sons say: “Hyde Park is woven into our story, it’s where so many memories were made. Coming back a decade later, with all this new music, feels incredibly special. London is and always will be the band’s home. We can’t wait.”
The 2026 set will celebrate every corner of the band’s catalogue from early favourites and modern classics to brand-new songs performed for the first time. Expect one of the biggest sing-alongs Hyde Park will see all summer.
