BST Hyde Park has announced country star Morgan Wallen as the latest headliner for the London event.

Morgan Wallen is the latest headliner to be announced for BST Hyde Park this summer.

The country star will play on Thursday July 4, with full supporting line up to be announced.

He is the final bill-topper in a list including SZA (June 29), Kings of Leon (June 30), Andrea Bocelli (July 5), Robbie Williams (July 6), Shania Twain (July 7), Stevie Nicks (July 12), Kylie (July 13) and Stray Kids (July 14).

One of today’s brightest stars in music, Morgan Wallen has had a string of 11 number one hits in the US, and has sold more than 2.4 million tickets so far for his world tour.

He recently released the Abbey Road Sessions, recorded at London's famous studio, including five live recordings from One Thing At A Time, an unreleased fan favourite, Lies Lies Lies, and a never-before-recorded cover of Nothing But Thieves’ Graveyard Whistling.

Wallen said: “Last fall was my first time in the UK and man, I loved it. I saw so much while I was there, and the people were incredible.

"To play where legendary artists like Pink Floyd and The Rolling Stones have played is a huge honor for me and my band, and we can’t wait to be back.”
