If you ever had any doubt about just how popular country music is in the UK right now, all you have to do is look at Zach Bryan’s two sold out nights at BST Hyde Park.
The American superstar has had a great few years. Whether he’s collaborating with everyone from Kacey Musgraves and Bon Iver to Bruce Springsteen, selling out stadiums, or releasing critically acclaimed album after critically acclaimed album, he’s hot property at the mo. Now, Bryan’s making his BST debut with a double-bill this weekend, headlining both Saturday and Sunday (June 28-29) because London, like everyone else, just can’t get enough.

On top of seeing one of the biggest country stars in the world, heading to Hyde Park this weekend is an excellent way to curb that Glasto FOMO, so here’s everything you need to know to ensure you have a brilliant night seeing Zach Bryan at BST Hyde Park 2025.
When is Zach Bryan playing BST Hyde Park 2025?
Zach will headline two nights at Hyde Park this week – Saturday June 28 and Sunday June 29. Night one sold out so quickly that the festival had to add another due to ‘phenomenal demand’, so you can expect to come across loads of like-minded Bryan fans this weekend.
What time do doors open?
Doors for BST open every day at 2pm, but those with primary entry or VIP access will be allowed in an hour early. Curfew is 10.30pm, so Zach’s set will end just before then at roughly 10.20pm.
What time will Zach Bryan come on stage?
Zach is not one to skimp out; he’s coming to give a proper show. He’ll be on stage from 8pm until nearly 10.30pm, so you’re getting almost two and a half hours of country goodness.
