Ateez are the latest showstoppers to headline at this year’s BST Hyde Park
South Korean boyband Ateez have been announced as the latest act to headline at this year’s BST Hyde Park. The group’s eight members – Hongjoong, Seonghwa, Yunho, Yeosang, San, Mingi, Wooyoung and Jongho – will make their Hyde Park debut on Sunday, June 28 , having taken the world by storm since they were founded in 2018.
Tickets to see Ateez at BST Hyde Park go on general sale at 10am on Friday, May 29, at www.bst-hydepark.com. The Amex presale began at 10am on Monday, May 18, while the artist presale opens at 10am Wednesday, May 20.
Hailing from KQ Entertainment, Ateez quickly distinguished themselves as one of K-pop’s biggest acts, selling out a global tour just four months into their career. Their distinct genre of pop music is defined by storytelling across their four albums – “Treasure,” “Fever,” “The World” and “Golden Hours” albums.
Headliners for BST Hyde Park 2026 also include: Garth Brooks (Saturday, June 27), Maroon 5 (Friday, July 3), Mumford & Sons (Saturday, July 4), Duran Duran (Sunday, July 5), Pitbull (Friday, July 10) and Lewis Capaldi (Saturday, July 11 and Sunday, July 12).

Ateez reached million‑seller status with their eighth EP in 2022, marking a milestone in their career. Their impact extends into the UK as well, where they made it three times in the top 10 UK albums chart in just a single year in 2024. Their momentum spread further that year, when they appeared at major festivals worldwide, including Coachella in the US, Summer Sonic in Japan and a headline set at Mawazine in Morocco.
Last year, the band was awarded the ‘K-pop Artist of the Year’ gong at the iHeartRadio Music Awards and a nomination for ‘Favourite K-Pop Artist’ at the American Music Awards. This was followed by their celebrated “Towards the Light: Will to power” tour, which brought 14 shows across nine European countries.
Ateez’ headline performance at Hyde Park marks another key event in the band’s journey, as well as their only UK performance for 2026.
BST Hyde Park has featured K-pop artists in previous years. In 2023, Blackpink made UK festival history by becoming the first K-pop group to headline a major UK music festival at BST Hyde Park. The following year, Stray Kids became the first male K-pop group to headline the festival. Ateez now prepare for their West London debut.
Tickets to see Ateez at BST Hyde Park go on general sale at 10am on Friday, May 29.
