American Express presents BST Hyde Park has named RAYE as its second headliner for 2027. The South London artist will make her BST Hyde Park debut on the Great Oak Stage on Saturday 10 July, with special guest Sienna Spiro. The rest of the line-up is still to be announced.

This is billed as a homecoming. RAYE has already headlined All Points East in 2025, sold out six nights at The O2, and played Coachella and Glastonbury. She has also toured Europe and North America, and joined Bruno Mars on his stadium run, The Romantic Tour, this summer. In October she returned to the Royal Albert Hall for a symphonic performance of her latest album.

Already announced as another BST 2027 headliner are Bon Jovi. The band play a UK exclusive on Thursday 24 June, 14 years after they opened the festival’s first edition in 2013. Organisers say more names will follow a record-breaking 2026 season that featured Garth Brooks, ATEEZ, Maroon 5, Mumford & Sons, Duran Duran, Pitbull and Lewis Capaldi.

2026 has been another landmark year. Her second album, THIS MUSIC MAY CONTAIN HOPE., arrived in March and went straight to No. 1 in the UK, also reaching the Top 10 in 16 territories. Lead single ‘WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!’ became her second UK No. 1 and has passed 1.5 billion streams. In January she won a GRAMMY for Best Song for Social Change, for “Ice Cream Man.” In October she won the 2026 Mercury Prize for Album of the Year.

Her independent debut, My 21st Century Blues, earned six BRIT Awards in one night in 2024, including Album of the Year and Songwriter of the Year, plus an Ivor Novello for Songwriter of the Year and three GRAMMY nominations. She is a seven-time BRIT Award winner, with more than 10 billion Spotify streams and 21 UK Top 40 singles.

Sienna Spiro, 21, joins as very special guest. Her debut album Visitor was the biggest UK debut album of 2026, peaking at No. 2 and reaching No. 9 on the Billboard 200, the first British artist in eight years to debut inside the US Top 10. The album passed one billion streams on release and has since been certified Gold by the RIAA. Breakthrough single “Die On This Hill” reached the UK Top 10 and No. 19 on the Billboard Hot 100, while “Great Expectation” spent three weeks at No. 1 in the UK.

Spiro is an MTV VMA Best New Artist winner, has been shortlisted for the BRITs Critics’ Choice, named to Forbes’ 30 Under 30, and received two American Music Award nominations. She is also in the running for a GRAMMY for Best New Artist. She has played Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, Montreux Jazz Festival, Cork Jazz Festival and All Points East, including support slots for RAYE and Lorde, plus London’s Roundhouse, LA’s Troubadour and New York’s Bowery Ballroom. With more than 135,000 tickets sold worldwide, she is currently on her My House World Tour across North America, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Europe.
