American Express presents BST Hyde Park has announced that its latest headliner for 2026 will be Pitbull. He will be joined by Kesha and many more acts still to be revealed on Friday 10 July 2026.
“Mr Worldwide” has sold more than 25 million studio albums and has more than 60 million monthly listeners on streaming platforms. He has worked with everyone from Jennifer Lopez to Christina Aguilera and Usher.
With hits including Don’t Stop the Party, Timber, Hotel Room Service, Time of Our Lives, Give Me Everything, Fireball and Get On The Floor, the Grammy Award winner has become a huge name in the pop world.
Pitbull’s 15-date sold-out Party After Dark European tour in June, including two shows at the O2 arena, was met with a viral explosion of fans proudly wearing bald caps and dubbing themselves "The Bald E’s”, honouring Pitbull’s signature look.
Kesha burst onto the scene with her debut single TiK ToK, which became one of the best-selling digital singles of all time. Across her career she has sold millions of records, clocked billions of streams and earned a Grammy nomination. This summer, Kesha returned with her new album (...), hailed by The Guardian as “a smart, funny return to her hedonistic hot-mess persona”.
Jim King, CEO of AEG Presents UK said: “We’re proud that over the years, BST Hyde Park has welcomed artists from every corner of the musical spectrum, but there’s truly no one quite like Mr. Worldwide. Pitbull’s energy is unmatched, and his ability to unite audiences across generations is something special. BST Hyde Park is about joy, connection, and unforgettable nights, and with Pitbull, we know he will deliver all of that and more.”
Previously announced as headliners for 2026 are Garth Brooks (Saturday 27 June) and Lewis Capaldi (Saturday 11 July and Sunday 12 July), with many more acts yet to be announced.
