Entering its sixth consecutive year next year, Wireless is proud to announce that P!NK will headline on Friday 2 July.


London’s Hyde Park has been home to the capital’s most sensational summer concerts for over four decades and next year’s Wireless is shaping up to be another unmissable highlight.

Joined by special guests The Ting Tings,  Pink will make history as the first female to ever headline a Wireless Festival – following in the footsteps of JAY-Z, White Stripes, Kanye West, Morrissey, Fatboy Slim and Daft Punk along with many others in its five-year history.

Live Nation, promoters of Wireless, today announced ticket details and on sale date.  Friday headliner P!NK and special guests The Ting Tings are the first of many big name artists to be announced to play across the park’s four stages. Further dates and acts will be announced in the coming weeks.

After last years acclaimed line-up with that saw headliners Basement Jaxx and Kayne West performing amazing sets to tens of thousands in Hyde Park, P!NK will be sure to set the bar even higher with her headline appearance.
