Of the nine headline slots at BST Hyde Park this year, two artists were so popular that the organisers had to give them each a whole extra night. The first was Zach Bryan, who headlined last week’s Saturday and Sunday nights, and the second was pop’s reigning princess, Sabrina Carpenter.
Sabrina has been in the music scene for a while now, but it wasn’t until last year that she blew up. After the double whammy of ‘Espresso’ followed by ‘Please, Please, Please’, she’s cemented herself firmly as the music industry’s shortest, sweetest hit maker. She’s played in the UK many times before, but this will be her first time headlining a festival – and it’s a big one.
Due to headline BST’s Hyde Park this weekend, the megastar will prove once and for all that she really can do a lot with 15 minutes; and even more with an entire hour-long set.

Here’s everything you need to know about Sabrina Carpenter’s days headlining BST Hyde Park.
When is Sabrina Carpenter playing BST Hyde Park?
Sabrina will deliver two sparkly, hit-filled nights as Hyde Park moves into its second weekend, on Saturday, July 5 and Sunday, July 6.
What time do doors open?
The gates to Hyde Park will be open to the general public from 2pm each day, although priority access and VIP ticket holders will be allowed in one hour earlier. No re-entry to the park is permitted once you leave, so you can’t pop out to get some cheaper food or use a proper toilet, so make sure you’re ready to stay in once you get your wristband.
Last entry is at 8.30pm, but the festival recommends that you arrive in plenty of time to account for queues or travel disruptions. If you have to pick up tickets or wristbands from the box office, you should be aware that it closes at 8pm sharp, so many sure you account for that.
What time will Sabrina Carpenter come on stage?
Sabrina is due on stage at 8.50pm, and due off of it just before 10.30pm, meaning her set will be just over 90 minutes long. That’s more than enough time to play all the hits, and a few fan favourites.

Can you still get tickets?
Sabrina Carpenter is pretty huge at the moment, which means that tickets are a hot commodity. Unfortunately, tickets for both nights are completely sold out all the way from general admission right up to the ‘Ultimate Diamond VIP Experience’ tier. You can always try having a look on Ticketmaster for any resale tickets tomorrow or the day of, but you might not have any luck.
Festival map
Hyde Park may not be quite the size of Glasto, but it’s still worth having a look at the layout of the grounds so you can get your bearings before you even set foot in the place. Here’s the BST Hyde Park map for 2025.
What’s BST Hyde Park's bag policy?
As we’re sure you’re aware, you can’t just bring whatever you’d like into the festival. Large bags are not allowed at all, but are welcome to bring a small bag. BST counts ‘small bags’ as anything A4 or smaller. You are only allowed one bag per person.
Banned items
As always, weapons, explosives, or anything else that could hurt someone, are banned from the festival. You probably assumed that already, but there are also a few things you might not have considered. Here’s a list of banned items for BST Hyde Park.

Weather forecast
The good news is that the heat wave has firmly passed us by. The bad news is that it’s due to rain on both Saturday and Sunday.
At the moment, it looks like there should just be spots of light rain here and there, but we’d still recommend bringing a poncho and an umbrella for the walk home. Temperature wise, you can expect low twenties, so at least you won’t be freezing cold and wet.
