BST Hyde Park has updated ‘worried’ fans on the health of their Sunday headliner Jeff Lynne, after he pulled out of a gig last minute on Thursday evening due to ‘illness’. Thankfully, for those with tickets to see Electric Light Orchestra in London on Sunday – billed as their final ever UK gig – it’s still going ahead for now.

The third and final weekend of BST Hyde Park 2025 is shaping up to be a big ’un. If the first two weekends – with Olivia Rodrigo, Zach Bryan, Noah Kahan and Sabrina Carpenter – seemed geared towards younger audiences, the final few shows are for the legends. Neil Young, ELO and Stevie Wonder are closing out this year’s fest.

It’s a three-for-one kind of afternoon at BST Hyde Park on Friday. There might be something inapt about using coupon terminology to describe an event that costs punters close to £100 (or more), but it’s true. Neil Young might be the headliner, but this is a triple bill of legends: Van Morrison and Yusuf/ Cat Stevens make up a formidable undercard.

With the sun still beaming down and the third heatwave of the summer coming to an end, Stevie started the last night of his Love, Light and Song UK tour with Love’s In Need of Love Today, followed by an emotional tribute to John Lennon’s Imagine – maybe the one cover we didn’t see coming.
