Mumford & Sons announced as headliner for BST Hyde Park 2026

Mumford & Sons are returning to BST Hyde Park ten years after their last appearance. The West London folk band have been unveiled as the festival’s first headliner and will grace the Great Oak Stage on Saturday 4th July 2026, joined by special guests The War On Drugs. 

The band’s homecoming show will follow the February release of their upcoming album Prizefighter, created with The National’s Aaron Dessner at Long Pond Studio and featuring Hozier, Gracie Abrams, Chris Stapleton and Gigi Perez. Their previous record RUSHMERE led to a UK No. 1 spot and a sold-out global arena tour. 

Mumford & Sons said of the headline show, “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.” AEG Presents CEO Jim King added, “Their last Hyde Park show was a milestone for BST. Having them return at this moment in their career is something we’re incredibly proud of.”
