Tell Me :
Talk
The Who in 2015 was my last show in Hyde Park too!
The sound outside the BST festival perimeter is actually fairly decent for the most part. I very clearly heard Bon Jovi playing the night before the 1st Stones show there in 2013. In Hamburg 5 years ago, the Police estimated there were about 15,000 fans outside the Stadtpark listening for free, including a few pubs with beer gardens and Rolling Stones themed parties. I was at the rehearsals 2 days before and the sound was good there.
There's a Sainsbury's local on Bayswater Road and loads of eateries nearby. That all said, I'll still probably end up going inside one way or the other.
You will be able to transfer via whatever app the ticket was purchased in. The 3 apps would be AXS, Ticketmaster or Fest Ticket. AXS may be the same as the BST festival app but the others will likely not be. I wouldn't expect any of this to be in place before June though.
I'll be staying right near Paddington Station from June 23 to June 28 - will make sure to drop past!
For the remainder of my London stay I'll stay with a friend out in the country, about a 40 minute train ride away from Euston Station.
Didn't book a return flight from London yet - just in case
Will arrive on Thursday the 23rd on a morning flight.

Might see you after the show. Pre-show I plan to be waiting outside to get in and waiting in my spot inside the show.
Anyone have any idea when the Hyde Park rehearsals are likely to be?
I’d like to go along.
I’m thinking this might be Thursday 23rd.
Considering there is Elton John the night before, I’d imagine soundcheck/rehearsals might be at an odd time.
Anyone know?

The rehearsals grzegorz67 is talking about are the Hamburg rehearsals 2017. The Stones usually do rehearsals on stage only before the first gig of the Tour. After the first gig they only do a soundcheck of 3 or 4 songs right before the gates open. If the gates open early like in Hyde Park they usually don't do any Soundcheck at all. For example in Spielberg 2017 they did some songs in a tent near the Stage. I don't think they'll do any Soundcheck at Hyde Park.
I think they will do Stage rehearsals in Madrid 2 days before opening night. Maybe even on 2 consecutive days...
It was a decent place to meet up. Just praying we get the same kind of weather.

I will probably be doing the same as you Gregor when it comes to The Hyde Park gigs, and just going to Hyde Park and finding the best place a couple of hours maybe before the gig to get the best sound.
Hoping to see you again sometime on the day.
Only a trip on the train from Epsom for me, and probably get there early afternoon and plenty of time to take it easy and see a few other fans there.
Last time I saw a gig there was The Who back in about 2015 or 2016 as you were, and loved the whole afternoon that day with great support acts.
As I'm a few years older than then, and spending hours in the same space to safeguard your spot is not my idea of fun as a 70 year old live music fan.
Really looking forward to The IORR Band June 24th, and meeting you again Gregor, and plenty of Stones fans there.
The Who in 2015 was my last show in Hyde Park too!

I have a question regarding transferring a ticket for this event.
If someone wants to sell/transfer/give a ticket to a friend or someone other than buyer,is this possible?
Would I need the BST festival app?
Can this be done in TM or AXS?
Thanks for any help!

The pub "Pride of Paddington" is a great old style pub, very central with all the nearby Paddington Station hotels. Sure one of my favorites whenever staying in that area.

Also staying nearby part of my stay.
Went there a few times in ‘18 per bv’s recommendation back then I believe.
Wonder if it would make a good pre/after-show spot?

They won't rehearse at Hyde Park.
And given it's a festival with plenty of other acts and doots opening early, there might not even be a soundcheck on the day, just a line check.

They didn’t in Washington 3 years ago and that was the 50th anniversary. They did, however play Mercy, Mercy as a one off so possibly a subtle nod to him.

Tier 2 is flexible pricing, I believe.
On day one, that same ticket was less than 400 GBP.

Gold VIP HydeAway Tier 2
• Watch Great Oak stage performances from the exclusive Gold Circle standing viewing area, which allows you to leave and return from the Gold Circle area into general admission as you wish
Does anyone know WHICH Gold Circle area this allows you access to? It seems that on the BST website they tell you everything except this significant bit of info....

OK, so there was a Tier 1 price after all. My bad. I thought there was only "Launch" and "Tier 2".
It would appear that the AMEX presale price was slightly lower than the "fan club presale" price.
