Looks more like Northern Ireland to me!

Yep! Either way, it's a different Hyde Park! London's Hyde Park wouldn't show on a weather forecast map, anyway.

Actually, it did (It said Hyde Park, London) smiling smiley

Hello guys! I was reading about the strikes but I couldn’t understand if them could affect me.

I’m arriving to Gatwik airport the same Saturday, very early. I have to take a train from there to Victoria Station and then another to the Hyde Park.

Somebody with more knowledge about the city and the trains could help me? Thank you and vamo los stoneee!

There is no Gatwick Express service to Victoria running on Saturday.

Looks like your best bet will be a Southern train from Gatwick to London Bridge and then tube/bus/walk to Hyde Park.

London Bridge and Gatwick Airport
"Two trains per hour will run between London Bridge and Gatwick Airport, calling at London Bridge, Norwood Junction, East Croydon, Purley, Redhill, Earlswood, Salfords, Horley and Gatwick Airport only."


Great idea! London Bridge is a train station or a city? Or is it literally the London Bridge?

Sorry for my dummy question, but I just was there once and I don't know the city! Thank you!

The first people will line up in the morning.

Note that there are Early Entry tickets for the Golden Circle so those people will get in first anyways. (And probably line up for the early entry as well!)

Anyone ever get tickets ordered from Festicket? I have been trying to reach a human or put in a ticket for a few days. They said tickets should be distributed by June 17th. It is end of business the 20th. I just initiated a chargeback via American Express and they were very helpful. Festicket has no phone number, BST isn't a listed festival so customer service cases can't be submitted, twitter and facebook messenger submissions get a response to go back to their help page where there is a non-existent chat message window.

I remembered there were some after parties after Hyde Park I in 2013.
Is there something organized as well this year, after the gig?

In this context it's a reference to a train station.

There actually *IS* a "London Bridge across the river Thames. It's the first bridge upstream from Tower Bridge.

Thanks for the info. I purchased tickets for Hyde Park 2 through Festicket also. No longer can attend the show as I had to cancel trip due to a medical issue. Would like to figure out a way to resell tickets but can’t proceed with that until tickets are distributed. Starting to look like a real cluster.

Appreciate any updates on this you may have; I used Amex to purchase the tickets too. Thanks!

In that case, I would contact American Express to explain the difficulty and demand a quick fix. BST Hyde Park is, after all, billed as being presented by AMEX.

Just got an email - Ticket from Festicket for July 3 is available in the BST app (no mention of Festicket app).
Logged into BST app with the email used to purchase the order and the ticket is there with changing barcode. Also has a Transfer button.

And I finally managed to access and transfer tickets from BST App. So the tech worked altho rather last minute.

Now just have to work out how to get to Hyde Park and back without using public transport...

London Bridge is a major train station next to the bridge.

From London Bridge station, get the Jubilee Line (tube) westbound to Green Park. Change at Green Park to the Piccadilly Line (tube) westbound to Hyde Park Corner.

London Bridge is a major train station in central south London next to the bridge.

From London Bridge station, get the Jubilee Line (tube) westbound to Green Park. Change at Green Park to the Piccadilly Line (tube) westbound to Hyde Park Corner.

The forecast has changed to the worse, unfortunately. However, it looks like it will dry up round 7. The Stones hit the stage 8:05.

I must use the AXS app for Hyde Park 2, but O2 Venue App for Hyde Park 1. Anyone else experiencing this? I finally got the AXS app working, but can't figure out this O2 App.

Why can't you use the BST-app?

For the first show I bought thru AXS, for the second I bought thru Ticketmaster. And they don't deliver tickets to the same app apparently. I am a bit confused. I'm not really a smart phone user, I have to borrow one to get in. I find this whole thing stressful!

I tried to contact Ticketmaster customer "service". They only provide a chat option which says “We’re sorry, there are no agents available right now. You can contact us by following in the link below” And that link leads back to the chat option.

It's possible to tranfer your ticket from one app to the other.

The Worst: sounds weird that if you bought your ticket thru AXS it wouldn't show on either the BST Hyde Park app or even the AXS app.

What happens if you go to the BST Hyde Park app and enter your AXS login details?

Also, both AXS and Ticketmaster tickets have been (or are being) delivered to the BST Hyde Park app. That's what BST has been saying all along. I haven't seen them mentioning the O2 app at all.

Anyone know if a QR Code on the AXS App will be enough to get me in ? I haven't bothered with the BST App as it seems to be troublesome.

I'll be queueing from early for GC East, rain, hail or shine. A bit of rain won't hurt winking smiley
