The legendary singer-songwriter is set to return to the summer concert series on Saturday July 12, following bill-topping sets there in 2016 and 2019.
Next month’s gig will come as part of Wonder’s 2025 ‘LOVE, LIGHT & SONG’ UK tour, which also includes performances in Lytham, Manchester, Birmingham and Cardiff.
Today (June 18), BST organisers have confirmed four names who’ll open for Wonder in Hyde Park. These are Mercury Prize and BRIT Award-winning jazz outfit Ezra Collective, US soul trio Thee Sacred Souls, Oxford-born soul singer Elmiene, and Leeds Grammy-winner Corinne Bailey Rae.
Further acts will be announced in the coming weeks, to complete the “full line-up of stellar guests” for Wonder’s BST Hyde Park show. Check out the post below.

In February, Hugh Jackman cancelled his scheduled bill-topping performance at the summer series “due to an unforeseen conflict in [his] schedule”. The actor and singer said he was “deeply disappointed” to do so.
Ezra Collective released their third and latest album, ‘Dance, No One’s Watching’, last September. The project earned a four-star review from NME, who wrote: “You know this record will sound even better live.”
Speaking to NME at the BRIT Awards 2024 in March, the group reflected on becoming the first jazz act to headline Wembley Arena, and shared that they wanted to continue giving back to the community in 2025.
