Lewis Capaldi headlined the second of two headline shows at BST Hyde Park on Sunday night, with The Kooks’ Luke Pritchard joining him for a duet of the band’s 2006 classic, Naive.

Arriving on stage as the sunset turned the sky gold, Capaldi wore a denim jacket over a white T-shirt and black trousers, opening with Hollywood, Grace and the uplifting Heavenly Kind of State of Mind.

“Night two! We couldn’t fit another c*** in here if we tried,” he joked. “There’s 60,000 people in here – thank you for coming, thank you for being here, thank you for the money. And we’re going to have fun, you and I. I’m going to be sweating, you’re going to be sweating.”

Spotting Scottish and Celtic flags throughout the audience, Capaldi also couldn’t resist referencing England’s World Cup quarter-final victory.

“Everybody enjoy the football last night? Less said about that the better for me,” he laughed.

“We have a shit load of ballads to get through… and by God, we’re going to sing them and we’re going to sing them well.”

And sing them he did. Almost and Forever were followed by his breakthrough single Bruises, before Pointless and the emotional Something in the Heavens settled over Hyde Park as darkness fell.

Following Sam Fender’s surprise appearance on Saturday night, Capaldi welcomed another special guest.

“I thought I’d like to get someone on who has meant a lot to me over the last 20 odd years. I saw a video from Reading in 2006 of this particular band playing this particular song, and I remember thinking that’s what I want to do when I’m older. It had a profound effect on me.

“For my money, it’s one of the best songs ever written… Please welcome Mr Luke Pritchard from The Kooks, everybody.”

As Pritchard walked on stage, Hyde Park erupted before the pair launched into Naive, with 65,000 fans singing every word.

Speaking to us earlier, Pritchard said: “I remember the first time I heard Lewis sing. It was pretty amazing hearing that voice. I heard Lewis liked our band and came to see us at Brixton Academy during lockdown. We kept in touch after that, but this offer came completely out of the blue.

“Naive being the chosen song? That was all Lewis. I actually suggested we do a B-side and he wasn’t having any of it! I can’t wait for people to hear it. I wrote it as a teenager, and it brings people together through vulnerability. I think that’s something Lewis shares.”

The hits kept coming with Before You Go, while The Day That I Die provided one of the evening’s quietest moments as Capaldi performed alone at the piano. Removing his in-ear monitors once again for Hold Me While You Wait, the crowd carried the chorus before Forget Me closed the main set.

Returning for the encore, Survive gave fans one final chance to sing before the inevitable finale of Someone You Loved.

“This is a dream come true for me, doing this for two nights,” Capaldi told the audience. “I’m going to go away after this summer and make a new album for everybody. I hope when I come back you’ll still be there and we can do this again. My name is Lewis Capaldi and I’ll see you very soon.”

Joining the tour from California, Conan Gray was personally invited by Capaldi to support the BST Hyde Park shows. Performing tracks including The Cut That Always Bleeds, Eleven Eleven and Heather, the bedroom-pop star continued his Wishbone World Tour.

Alessi Rose showcased songs from her second EP, telling the crowd: “I’m super honoured to be here. I’ve been to BST so many times as someone in the crowd and always dreamed of playing this stage. I love Lewis Capaldi, I love Conan Gray.”

Closing with oh my., she thanked both longtime fans and newcomers alike.

Jacob Alon delivered another mesmerising performance before dedicating Pushing to Pull Away to Capaldi.

“I’d love to give a massive thank you to Lewis for having me on this tour,” they said. “He bought me this guitar yesterday. No one has ever done something so kind for me before. I want to dedicate this song to him and tell him I love him so much.”

Absolutely, whose older sister is RAYE, impressed with flawless vocals and introduced the title track from her latest album, Paracosm, describing it as “the embodiment of childlike wonder.”

Over on the Rainbow Stage presented by British Airways, Portland singer-songwriter Alexandra Savior headlined with material from her latest album Beneath the Lilypad.

Folk Bitch Trio charmed the audience with rich harmonies, while Scottish singer-songwriter Murdo Mitchell brought his travelling troubadour spirit to Hyde Park.

Beattie opened the Rainbow Stage with a captivating alt-rock set inspired by Lana Del Rey.

On the Birdcage Stage, Sadie Jean performed songs from Early Twenties Torture, Ber showcased tracks from her debut album Good, Like It Should Be, Mike Sharp & The Bicycle Thieves brought infectious big-band energy, and Luke Hart impressed with his viral hit Binding.

The full BST Hyde Park 2026 headliner series featured Garth Brooks, ATEEZ, Maroon 5, Mumford & Sons, Duran Duran, Pitbull and Lewis Capaldi.

Montreux Jazz Festival has thrown the spotlight on British talent during the opening week of its landmark 60th edition, with Great Britain the festival’s most represented country this year, boasting 16 artists across the programme. From established global stars to the UK’s most exciting new voices, RAYE, PinkPantheress, Sienna Spiro, Sting and more have delivered standout performances at the renowned Swiss festival on the shores of Lake Geneva.

Headliner RAYE raised the bar with her one-of-a-kind show This Stage May Contain Moments In Time, a specially commissioned production co-created with Audemars Piguet. Returning for her third consecutive appearance at the Festival, she was joined by surprise guest Alicia Keys – for their first ever live performance together – and “Suzanne” collaborator Mark Ronson.

The Auditorium Stravinski transformed into a dramatic immersive space as RAYE paid homage to six decades of music history, complete with tributes to Montreux legends including Nina Simone, Ella Fitzgerald and Prince.

Fans around the world can now relive the historic performance, with RAYE’s opening night concert now available to watch for free on the Montreux Jazz Festival YouTube channel.

The concert marks the start of the Festival’s extensive free livestream programme. More than 45 performances from this year’s 60th edition will be broadcast live or made available on YouTube, including shows from Moby, Van Morrison, James Taylor, John Legend, Joy Crookes, Sienna Spiro, Vulfpeck and Marcus Miller, bringing Montreux to audiences around the world.

Making her Montreux debut, PinkPantheress transformed the Auditorium Stravinski into a thudding club night with her infectious blend of UK garage and drum & bass. Riding high from becoming the first woman and youngest ever recipient of the BRIT Award for Producer of the Year, she powered through hits including “Boy’s a Liar”, “Nice To Meet You” and “Angel”, telling the crowd: “This is my first time in Montreux… let’s have some fun!” – and she kept to her word.

Rising star Sienna Spiro, already drawing comparisons with Montreux luminary Adele, showcased the remarkable depth of her voice during her Jazz Lab debut. Performing songs from her acclaimed new album Visitor, including global hit “Die On This Hill”, she later surprised fans with an intimate secret set in the jazz club setting of The Memphis, reimagining standards “Summertime” and “The Girl From Ipanema”.

Rock icon Sting reminded audiences why he remains one of Britain’s greatest live performers with a career-spanning set packed with solo favourites and timeless Police classics including “Fields of Gold”, “Every Breath You Take”, “Message In A Bottle” and “Roxanne”. Reflecting on his remarkable career, he told the crowd: “I’m not sure if I believe in reincarnation but I can’t think of a better life than the one I have now.”

Former BRIT Rising Star nominee Sekou further cemented his reputation as one of Britain’s most exciting emerging artists with a standout performance at the Jazz Lab, while Londoner kwn lived up to her billing as one of the UK’s most compelling new R&B voices with a captivating set of her own.

Producer, composer and hyperpop innovator Danny L Harle brought his trademark high-energy sound to the Jazz Lab, delivering a blistering set that showcased one of the UK’s most inventive musical talents.

Completing this year’s British contingent are Sasha Keable, Van Morrison, Nectar Woode, Joy Crookes, Deep Purple, Erin LeCount, Paris Paloma, Lewis Capaldi and Loyle Carner, underlining Britain’s position as the most represented country at this year’s milestone Montreux Jazz Festival.

This weekend, a new flagship festival, American Express presents Roundhay Festival, brought a star-studded line-up to West Yorkshire crowds, with headline sets from Miami rapper Pitbull and Scottish singer Lewis Capaldi, as well as an afternoon of All Things Orchestral.

The festival at Roundhay Park in Leeds was produced by AEG Presents, the team behind American Express presents BST Hyde Park, and delivered with the support of Leeds City Council.

The festival builds on Roundhay’s rich musical history, which includes shows from The Rolling Stones (1982), Genesis and Madonna (1987), Michael Jackson (1988), and U2 (1997). The park’s natural amphitheater bowl shape feels tailor-made for concerts – and global superstars felt right at home within Roundhay’s luscious grounds.

AEG worked with the local community to ensure production costs went into the local economy, helping local businesses, and festivalgoers were fed by an array of street food vendors from Leeds and the region.

From Friday’s sea of bald caps in celebration of Pitbull, to a relaxing Sunday of cinematic symphonies, Roundhay Festival’s inaugural year offered something special each day.

FRIDAY 3 JULY — PITBULL

Pitbull brought a huge party, with thousands arriving in the customary Pitbull uniform (a bald cap, black tie and white button-up shirt). When the Grammy-winning rapper took to the stage, ‘Don’t Stop The Party’ transformed the entire park grounds into an all-out fiesta.

Throughout the set, the global superstar was grinning from behind his black sunglasses, bouncing around with latex-clad backup dancers as he performed cuts like ‘Hotel Room Service’, ‘Gasolina’ and ‘I Know You Want Me’. The rapper even brought out Lil Jon, singing three tracks together before thanking his long-time comrade: “This man believed in me, gave me an opportunity and showed me love 25 years ago… thank you, Lil Jon!”

The set included songs with lyrics in both English and Spanish, but the rapper expressed his gratitude for “the most important, universal language of all – music!”

Roundhay had never seen anything like this, from the bald-capped kids at the barrier to the giggling groups barn-dancing during ‘Timber’ and knocking back ‘Fireball’ whisky.

“I wanna say thank you to all the baldies – I see you!” Pitbull grinned. “When you put on those bald caps, you know you’re about to have the TIME. OF. YOUR. LIVES!”

The rest of the day was equally bombastic, with Jason Derulo delivering his typical cocktail of charm and sex appeal. From ‘Sexy For Me’ to ‘Wiggle’, the American singer pulled out all the stops, dancing his heart out along with his backup dancers, whether belting along to ‘Whatcha Say’ or lifting his tank top to belly roll during ‘Swalla’.

The UK’s own Tinie Tempah knocked out an ‘Earthquake’ of a set. From ‘Pass Out’s’ cheeky lyric alteration (“I’ve been to Leeds but I’ve never been to Scunthorpe”), to ‘Written In The Stars’, it was a total crowd sing-along. The charming London lad even debuted a new song, Rude, hinting at more Tinie to come soon.

Opening on a montage in honour of Lil Jon’s late son, Nathan Smith (DJ Young Slade), the King of Crunk’s set started off on a sombre note. But Lil Jon wanted his performance to be a celebration – and it absolutely was. From ‘Turn Down For What’ to ‘Get Low’, his signature “Yeah!”s carried the crowd through his riotously fun blend of hip hop and EDM. “I’ve never been to Leeds before…but I heard you party fucking hard… so let’s party!” he said.

Over on the East Stage, Jazzie Martian treated crowds to his own brand of hip-hop, which blends elements of R&B, rap, pop, rock and dancehall. Playing tracks from his latest release, Ghetto Chandelier, his unique sound easily won over crowds. “Leeds is a place that embraces a lot of different music and different genres,” the rising star told us. “As a newcomer into the festival scene, it was amazing to see how much Roundhay embraced and appreciated what I had to offer.”

Los Tucanes De Tijuana put on a marvellous Mexican display, bringing their norteño tunes to the UK for the very first time. As Pitbull says, music is a universal language – and no language barriers could stop people loving their cowboy hats, brash leopard print shirts and bouncy accordion romps. ‘La Chona’, is a particularly big hit – it’s easy to see why it’s become the “official-unofficial Mexican world cup football song”, according to the band.

Pitbull’s own Globalization DJs Dan Hills and CJ.AllDayy also have crowds over at the East Stage boogieing in between the festivities, making for an all-killer-no-filler day of fun.

SATURDAY 4 JULY – LEWIS CAPALDI

Lewis Capaldi’s show had a celebratory feel to it. In 2019, he supported Ed Sheeran at the park and on Saturday he was back to headline – now an iconic star in his own right, with one of the great voices in British pop.

The entire amphitheater was full of Capaldi lovers, from diehards at the barrier to viewers from the hill, shining their phone flashlights for ‘Something In The Heavens’.

The evening marked Capaldi’s return to Leeds and back and on stage with a world-class set after a break from touring for health reasons. From the beauty of Grace to an extravagant ‘rockstar’ guitar solo at the end of ‘Pointless’ (“sometimes, you gotta shred it”), he clearly had a marvellous time.

By the time ‘Someone You Loved’ swung around, Capaldi hinted that he is also cooking up a new album – noting that he hopes to return to Leeds soon.

Capaldi’s pal Kerr Mercer, from Glasgow, opened up the mainstage with style: “What a Scottish lineup today. Me, Jacob Alon… that old guy, Lewis something…” Songs ranged from the groovy baseline of ‘Stop Me Dead’ to the heartwrenching piano-led vulnerability of ‘Terrified’.

“I know everyone is buzzing and in a good mood and that, but this is probably the saddest thing you’ll ever hear…” he said, before cutting himself off with: “Nah, actually, it’s a Lewis Capaldi concert. I can sing the saddest song I like!”

Jacob Alon served up a set of delicate, fluttering folk songs, endearing himself even further to the audience by proudly wearing a Leeds United jersey, along with sparkly boots and a bedazzled baseball cap. American TikTok-sensation-turned-popstar Jessie Murph opened with a cover of The Animals’ ‘House of the Rising Sun’, her ‘country belle’ vocals build the tension as her white dress floats in the wind. The ‘butter-wouldn’t-melt’ image faded when ‘Touch Me Like A Gangster’ kicked in, transforming her into a pop femme fatale.

Californian teen heart-throb Conan Gray swept across the stage like a new-age Peter Pan. In a billowing white top, he rushed out to the tune of ‘My World’ – and the fans that had been camping out at the barrier all day were instantly eating out of the palm of his hand, singing every single word.

On the East Stage, up-and-coming London acoustic singer Maya Lane charmed the audience with folk tunes, while American indie pop guitarist Ber performed cuts from her debut album, Good, Like It Should Be.

“I’ve lived in places like Norway and Minnesota, but moving here and studying at Leeds Conservatoire is when I fell in love with live music,” she said. “I’ve probably been to 100 shows in (Leeds venue) Oporto… I know how important this festival is for the community, so I’m so honoured to be involved.”

Indie rocker Nieve Ella unleashed tracks like ‘Drive’ and the suckerpunch ‘Good Grace’. With fans facing up into her face, her black mane flew around as she caused havoc – the fans in the crowd loving the show.

SUNDAY 5 JULY – ALL THINGS ORCHESTRAL

On Sunday, Roundhay Park welcomed All Things Orchestral with the world-renowned Hallé Orchestra immersing crowds in a rich sonic world of cinematic cuts and timeless orchestral movements.

Conducted by Stephen Bell and hosted by Myleene Klass MBE, the afternoon both thrilled audiences – with the orchestra performing themes from Star Wars to 2001: A Space Odyssey – as well as educating the crowds on sections on musical history, bass versus baritone vocals, and even the sections of the orchestra.

“Where are the… trumpets?” Klass asked in a roll call, before a handful of brass trumpets began swinging overhead to show where they were sat. “Now the… clarinets!”

The Halle Orchestra was joined by Klass’s “favourite tenor”, Alfie Boe. After joking that he’d “suggested some Metallica” to the orchestra, the Lancashire singer treated crowds to a slew of heartwrenchingly emotional cuts. From Lensky’s ‘Aria’ to Bring Him Home from Les Misérables.

The crowd was enchanted by pieces including ‘Fantasia on Greensleeves’ and ‘Hedwig’s Theme’ from Harry Potter.

The party was closed by a DJ Yoda set celebrating the 1990s, mashing up cultural soundbites from The Simpsons, Trainspotting and Pulp Fiction with hip-hop and club tunes.

Duran Duran performed to a packed-out American Express presents BST Hyde Park on Sunday night, showcasing hits such as Ordinary World, Girls on Film and Notorious with Nile Rodgers.

Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes, Roger Taylor and John Taylor wasted no time in getting to the hits, opening with their first UK No. 1 single, Is There Something I Should Know?

“Hi London… Do you reckon it’s time for Bond?” Le Bon asked as the band teased the intro to A View to a Kill before launching into Hungry Like the Wolf. “We’ve had some fantastic acts on. Nile Rodgers and CHIC, the amazing Scissor Sisters. Now, I think it’s time for a little howling…”

The dream setlist spanned more than 40 years of hits, with The Reflex, Come Undone and White Lines all featuring during the first half of the show.

“How many of you plan on staying up all night? Are you going down the pub? Football, lads?” Le Bon asked, referring to England’s Round of 16 World Cup match against Mexico. Introducing Ordinary World, he added: “Usually we dedicate this to people less fortunate than us. But this time, we’re going to dedicate it to the England football team. I have faith in this team. I believe in them. I think they’re gonna do us proud. They can overcome the cauldron that is the Azteca. They can overcome the altitude. They can overcome the team that is Mexico. I believe.”

Next came the collaboration fans had been waiting for. “We are very lucky to have a relationship with one of the greatest artists that the world has ever known,” Le Bon said. “I’m talking about Nile Rodgers. We’ve recorded some of our best songs with Nile and we are so proud of our relationship with him.”

With Rodgers on guitar, the band performed Notorious, followed by the more recent Free to Love. “You lovely, lovely man,” Le Bon added as he embraced his longtime collaborator.

As dusk settled over Hyde Park, a Girls on Film/Psycho Killer medley kept the crowd dancing beneath a purple evening sky. The encore brought the show to a fiery close with London Calling, Wild Boys, Save a Prayer and, fittingly, Rio, ending a triumphant two-hour headline performance.

Following the show, Duran Duran announced a special Halloween performance at London’s The O2 on 31 October as part of their 2026 UK arena tour.

With a giant inflatable pair of scissors towering over the stage, Scissor Sisters brought chaos, glamour and plenty of fun to BST Hyde Park with a high-energy 12-song set.

Opening with Don’t Feel Like Dancing, Jake Shears, Babydaddy and Del Marquis immediately got the crowd moving. “How you doing, London?” Shears asked before launching into Laura. “Now we’re cooking. Now we’re cooking with grease.”

Dressed in blue-and-gold sequin dungarees, Shears led the expanded seven-piece band through Get Your Tits Out and I Can’t Decide before welcoming special guest Melanie C for a mash-up of Take Your Mama Out and George Michael’s Freedom.

“Alright, we have something very special for you tonight,” Shears told the crowd. “Joining us to sing this next song, the one and only Ms Melanie C.”

Before closing with Only the Horses, Shears thanked the city that embraced the band from the beginning. “London is really the Scissor Sisters’ hometown… it always has been. Thank you for your support. This is for you.”

Nile Rodgers & CHIC returned to BST Hyde Park with a hit-filled set celebrating one of pop music’s greatest catalogues. Alongside CHIC classics including Le Freak, Dance, Dance, Dance, I Want Your Love and He’s the Greatest Dancer, Rodgers treated fans to songs he helped create for Diana Ross (I’m Coming Out), Sister Sledge (We Are Family), Madonna (Like a Virgin and Material Girl) and Daft Punk featuring Pharrell Williams (Get Lucky). The set closed with Good Times, joined by Duran Duran bassist John Taylor.

Groove Armada kicked off the afternoon with an uplifting DJ set that quickly filled Hyde Park. Tom Findlay and Andy Cato reflected on nearly three decades together, crediting TikTok for introducing their music to a new generation of fans. The performance also marked Findlay’s 53rd birthday.

Over on the Rainbow Stage presented by British Airways, Melanie C headlined with a feel-good set celebrating 30 years since the release of the Spice Girls’ debut album Spice. Highlights included Who Do You Think You Are? and a singalong finale of 2 Become 1.

Sophie Grey impressed early festivalgoers with her futuristic electro-pop, performing tracks from her latest EP Just Another Sonic Monday, while Harrison opened the stage with high-energy dance tracks, including his viral cover of t.A.T.u.’s All the Things She Said.

On the Birdcage Stage, Sistra drew crowds with emotionally charged alt-pop, Wendy Bevan combined haunting vocals with electric violin, and Sam Scherdel showcased his anthemic single Somewhere in the Middle.

The remaining BST Hyde Park 2026 headliners include Pitbull (10 July) and Lewis Capaldi (11 & 12 July).

BST Hyde Park kicked off a second weekend of spectacular music with American pop-rock band Maroon 5 headlining the Great Oak Stage. The six-piece – frontman Adam Levine, lead guitarist James Valentine, drummer Matt Flynn, keyboardist PJ Morton, rhythm guitarist Jesse Carmichael and bassist Sam Farrar – took time out of their Love Is Like tour, which has already travelled across North America, Asia and Europe, for a sold-out night in London.

Right on cue, Good Vibrations by The Beach Boys played over the speakers, a nod to past collaborations between the two bands. Moments later, the opening beats of Harder to Breathe sent the Hyde Park crowd into raptures.

“Hyde Park! Holy sh*t. This is absolutely incredible,” announced Levine. “Ladies and gentlemen, to see all you people here tonight is an incredible thing. We first came here in 2005 and played The Barfly – there weren’t that many people there, probably 40 if we were lucky.

“Our first album came out in 2002, and when I tell you it just keeps getting better, it’s all because of you guys. Thank you so much for everything you’ve given us. We’re going to give a little of that back to you tonight.”

A hit-filled set followed, with Animals and One More Night taking Levine deep into the crowd via the runway. Sunday Morning arrived just as the sun began to set, while James Valentine’s extended guitar solo brought the track to an unforgettable close.

Heavy, Won’t Go Home Without You and Memories followed before the entire park sang every word to She Will Be Loved. Urging fans to raise the volume for the final chorus, Levine shouted: “Let’s make the rest of London jealous. Let’s f***ing go!”

Among the crowd were Jess Glynne, Joel Dommett and Bradley Simpson of The Vamps. Fan favourites including Love Somebody and Girls Like You kept the atmosphere soaring, while Cardi B’s rap verse blasted through the speakers as the song’s music video played across the giant screens.

The unmistakable whistle intro of Moves Like Jagger sparked another huge singalong before the encore featured Payphone and finally Sugar, bringing the headline set to a triumphant close.

“This was so much crazier than we could have imagined all those years ago, and we have you to thank,” Levine told the audience. “Thank you all so much, Hyde Park. Thank you, London.”

OneRepublic Deliver Back-to-Back Hits

OneRepublic filled Hyde Park with anthem after anthem during their late afternoon set.

“I think there’s about 19 years’ worth of songs we’ve got to rip through in the next hour,” frontman Ryan Tedder laughed before launching into Stop and Stare.

Tedder also showcased some of the biggest songs he has written for other artists, performing a medley including Beyoncé’s Halo, Leona Lewis’ Bleeding Love and Adele’s Rumour Has It, while weaving through the crowd.

The set continued with Apologize, I Ain’t Worried, I Lived, Run and closed with the global smash Counting Stars.

He also praised fellow performer Jess Glynne, teasing: “We did a couple of songs together years ago. Maybe they’ll come out one day.”

Jess Glynne, Ella Eyre and More Complete the Line-up

Jess Glynne brought an energetic afternoon performance featuring I’ll Be There, 123, Take Me Home, Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself, Thursday, Rudimental collaboration These Days, Clean Bandit’s Rather Be and an emotional finale with Hold My Hand.

Ella Eyre returned to Hyde Park for the first time since supporting Take That in 2016. Fresh from vocal cord surgery, she impressed with powerful performances of Space, Kintsugi and a soulful cover of Gnarls Barkley’s Crazy.

Opening the Great Oak Stage, Only The Poets showcased tracks from their debut album Monumental, with All This Time and Jump! earning huge reactions from early arrivals.

Over on the Rainbow Stage presented by British Airways, Bradley Simpson performed songs from his debut solo album The Panic Years, including Picasso, Play At The Moon and Almost.

Pedro Santos debuted new material including Lady In Red and I Don’t Know Me, while Los Angeles duo VOILÀ brought their energetic electro-pop show to Hyde Park.

Earlier performances also came from Stefan Mahendra, Pat Hamilton and Dylan Flynn & The Dead Poets on the Birdcage Stage.
