Hard Rock Calling information

Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Hard Rock brand, Hard Rock Calling is an established London open air music event which showcases well known international acts, and a few legends over two days, with a genuine festival feel to it.

This year sees the annual festival attract an incredible line-up of global rockstars, with Bon Jovi, Rod Stewart and The Killers headlining three storming nights at London’s Hyde Park.

Las Vegas' finest The Killers will headline the opening night of Hard Rock Calling, on Friday 24th June. The band last appeared on the Hard Rock Calling stage in 2009. After taking a year off while front man Brandon Flowers concentrated on his solo project, the band have reunited for a new record and a very special headline appearance in Hyde Park.

One of the biggest acts to have come out of the UK since rock n roll began, Grammy Award winning living legend Rod Stewart will headline Hard Rock Calling on Sunday 26th June. With a career spanning nearly half a century, seven number-one hit singles and a further 27 top-ten albums in the UK alone, Rod Stewart's position as one of the biggest selling artists of all time is firmly set. And now he’s set to grace the iconic Hard Rock Calling stage in London’s Hyde Park for a mid Summer party like no other. Adam Ant & The Good, The Mad And The Lovely Posse, Rumer, Mike + The Mechanics, The Lighthouse Family and Barenaked Ladies will all be joining headliner Rod Stewart and special guest Stevie Nicks for a midsummer party in the park.

The dates for the three days of Hard Rock Calling 2011 are from Friday 24th until Sunday 26th June with gates expected to open at 1pm, the music starting at 3pm, and ending at approximately 10:30pm on all three days.
