Kendrick Lamar announced as next BST Hyde Park headliner

With names such as Pearl Jam, Little Mix and Taylor Swift already topping the bill on a number of days this year, BST Hyde Park has now unveiled its next mammoth headliner.

Kendrick Lamar has now been confirmed as the main act for the Sunday 5th July leg of the festival, with James Blake and Brittany Howard arriving in support. The rapper has been rumoured to release his long-awaited follow-up to his 2017 album 'Damn' later this year, and it looks like he is back for the promo run.

Tickets for the event go on sale 10am GMT on Friday 24th January, and you can find out more details at https://www.bst-hydepark.com
