Hard Rock International Partners with American Express Presents BST Hyde Park to Bring U.K. Music Lovers Special Activations & Surprises

“As we reflect on half a century of Hard Rock, which started right here in London and has since expanded to reach all corners of the globe with venues in over 70 countries, we’re thrilled to take part in such an iconic cultural celebration by helping extend access to music lovers and enrich the experiences of festival goers at BST Hyde Park,” said Jim Allen, Hard Rock International Chairman.

Hard Rock Cafe will activate at BST Hyde Park with a cafe pop-up on the festival grounds and in the VIP section, where attendees can enjoy menu offerings without straying far from the excitement. Additionally, to support the next generation of artists that may someday be headlining festivals, Hard Rock is sponsoring one of the stages, Hard Rock Rising presents the Rainbow Stage, which will feature up-and-coming artists from around the world.

The Hard Rock Cafe locations will also have unique memorabilia on display including pieces from BST Hyde Park performers Elton John, The Rolling Stones, Eagles, Duran Duran and Pearl Jam, as well as memorabilia from other famed U.K. music greats.

“For 50 years Hard Rock has been associated with the biggest names in music,” said Jim King CEO of European Festivals at AEG Presents. “We look forward to sharing their glorious history at BST Hyde Park this summer where music fans can enjoy the famous Hard Rock Cafe and the Hard Rock Rising Stage.”
