Line-ups, updates and news for Hard Rock Calling 2011

Hyde Park June 24th - 26th 2011

Seriously massive festival which has just kept getting bigger...and better. Although Hard Rock Calling is not strictly a hard rock festival, they have secured their reputation by booking stadium rock icons to headline.

2008's event made history with The Police playing their final UK gig to an audience of 35,000. Other past guests include legends Eric Clapton, Roger Waters, Aerosmith and The Who.

Last year saw Pearl Jam and Stevie Wonder play the event with Paul McCartney closing off the festival on the Sunday night. Only a few acts have been confirmed for the 2011 event so far. Rod Steward, Bon Jovi and Fleetwood Mac's, Stevie Nicks, have all been confirmed with more to be announced soon.

There's no camping on site - music starts at 3pm and finishes at a very conservative 11pm. You can either buy a two day ticket starting from £100 or day tickets starting from £47.50.
