The Announcement
The 28-year-old South Londoner, real name Rachel Keen, will top the bill on Saturday, July 20, 2027. Rising singer Sienna Spiro has been named as a special guest on the same day, with more acts still to be announced.
Bon Jovi were already confirmed to headline the London festival on June 24.
Tickets for RAYE's show go on general sale on Tuesday, November 10, at 10am through the official BST Hyde Park website.
A Record-Breaking Run
The booking caps a huge run for the Where The Hell Is My Husband? star, who recently picked up the Mercury Prize for her second album. Back in 2024 she made Brit Awards history by winning six trophies in a single night, the most ever by one artist, including Album of the Year, and became the first woman named Songwriter of the Year.
Since her debut in 2014, the four-time Grammy nominee has notched up 21 UK Top 40 singles and more than 10 billion Spotify streams.
An Artist Who Has Overcome
RAYE has also spoken openly about her struggles, describing 2019 as “a pretty dark year” marked by substance misuse and distance from her family, and crediting her loved ones with helping her through it. Her candour has only deepened the connection she has with fans, who have followed every chapter of her rise.
BST Hyde Park 2027: What We Know
British Summer Time Hyde Park has established itself as one of London's most prestigious outdoor concert series, drawing some of the biggest names in music each summer. With RAYE and Bon Jovi already locked in, 2027 is shaping up to be a landmark year for the festival. Further headliners and supporting acts are expected to be announced in the coming months.
For RAYE, taking the Hyde Park stage will mark another milestone in a career that has already rewritten what is possible for an independent British artist.
