Gates for general admission open at 2pm, while primary entry and VIP ticket holders can enter an hour earlier. Last entry is at 8.30pm, and there is no re-admission after entry. Mumford & Sons are expected to finish their set by 10.30pm.
The show follows the release of their album Prizefighter, which saw the trio collaborate with Hozier, Chris Stapleton, and Gracie Abrams. Fans can expect to hear new music alongside classic hits such as "Babel," "Little Lion Man," and "I Will Wait."

Mumford & Sons formed in West London in 2008 and quickly rose to fame, winning Grammys and headlining festivals worldwide. They last headlined BST Hyde Park in 2016. The band said: "Hyde Park is woven into our story, it's where so many memories were made. Coming back a decade later, with all this new music, feels incredibly special. London is and always will be the band's home. We can't wait."
