by | May 12, 2026

Already one of the most anticipated live events of the year, the first date has officially sold out, with a second Hyde Park performance added due to overwhelming demand. Now, fans know exactly who will be joining the Scottish chart-topper across both days — and the line-ups showcase a sweeping mix of indie favourites, breakthrough pop stars and rising grassroots talent.

Saturday’s sold-out event sees indie stalwarts The Vaccines join the bill alongside fast-rising names including Nieve Ella, Tyler Ballgame, Kerr Mercer and London sibling trio NECKBREAKERS. Meanwhile, Sunday’s newly added date welcomes alt-pop breakout Alessi Rose, cinematic songwriter Alexandra Savior, Australian folk trio Folk Bitch Trio and viral indie-pop favourite Sadie Jean.

Both dates will also feature previously announced appearances from Conan Gray and Scottish rising star Jacob Alon, alongside genre-blurring newcomer Absolutely.

Capaldi’s return to the live stage continues to gather momentum following the release of his 2025 Survive EP and recent deluxe edition featuring the emotional new single Stay Love. The singer’s comeback trail has already included surprise festival appearances, a sold-out UK arena run and a headline Madison Square Garden performance, reaffirming his status as one of Britain’s defining modern songwriters.

The BST Hyde Park shows arrive during a particularly triumphant period for the Glasgow-born artist. His single Survive became the fastest-selling UK single of 2025, earning him a sixth UK Number One and placing him alongside artists including Queen, Lady Gaga and Britney Spears in the UK chart history books.

Saturday’s line-up leans heavily into guitar-driven indie and alternative sounds. The Vaccines continue to prove themselves one of Britain’s most enduring festival acts, while Nieve Ella brings her emotionally charged new era to Hyde Park following acclaimed recent releases. Elsewhere, Scottish soul-pop talent Kerr Mercer arrives with Capaldi’s own endorsement, while West Lothian favourite Luke La Volpe continues his steady rise through the UK live circuit.

Sunday’s programme shifts toward introspective alt-pop and folk-inspired songwriting. Derby-born sensation Alessi Rose continues her meteoric ascent after touring with major arena acts, while Alexandra Savior brings her noir-pop stylings back to UK audiences following the release of Beneath The Lilypad. Scottish troubadour Murdo Mitchell and emerging folk artist Luke Hart further bolster a line-up rich with storytelling and emotional weight.
