Olivia Rodrigo at BST Hyde Park 2025: start time, tickets, potential setlist and what you need to know for London show
Another summer week in London means yet another brilliant festival, and this week it's a biggie. BST Hyde Park, now in its 12th year, is bringing more world-renowned stars right to the heart of London – starting on Friday (June 27) with all-American pop girl Olivia Rodrigo.
There's no need to be sad if you weren't lucky enough to bag tickets to Glasto, its Sunday night headliner is marking her return to the UK with her Hyde Park debut. After a sold out stadium tour last spring, fans will be glad to end a year-long Rodrigo drought.
This will be the biggest UK show to date for the 'Drivers License' singer, although that title will quickly be usurped by her Sunday headline set at Glastonbury. Expect a night you can be 'obsessed' with, full of hits, red lipstick, and righteous anger at your useless ex. That should definitely be 'enough for you' to leave feeling great.
Here's everything you need to know about Olivia Rodrigo's BST Hyde Park set this Friday.
When is Olivia Rodrigo playing BST Hyde Park?
Olivia Rodrigo is the first BST Hyde Park headliner, so will play out the festival's first Friday night, June 27. She'll be the last act of the day, so will finish just before the 10.30pm curfew.
What time do doors open?
Doors for BST Hyde park open at 2pm, although if you've got primary entry or VIP tickets you'll be allowed in an hour early. Once you're in, you're in, as there's no readmission permitted. Make sure that you're ready to settle in and enjoy your day when you head through those gates.
Last entry is 8.30pm, and the box office, for anyone needing to pick up tickets or wristbands, shuts at 8pm. BST's website advises you to arrive well in time of these deadlines to account for queues or delays. You wouldn't want a rogue delayed train to prevent you singing along to 'Deja Vu' with 60,000 like-minded fans.
What time will Olivia Rodrigo come on stage?
Olivia Rodrigo is set to come on stage at 8.50pm, and her set will last roughly 90 minutes, meaning she'll finish up just before half ten.
