How to get BBC Radio 2 In the Park tickets as Pet Shop Boys and Sting headline
Sting, Pet Shop Boys, Kim Wilde. This year's Radio 2 In the Park is set to be bigger and better than ever before.
BBC Radio 2’s flagship festival is set to return for another year this September, featuring an unbelievable line-up of acts.
With the likes of Pet Shop Boys, Sting, the Sugababes and Craig David all signed up, this year’s Radio 2 In the Park is on track to be the station’s biggest ever live music event outside of London.
Taking place since 2011, the festival has been known to bring in some of the biggest names in the music industry from Take That to Elton John. One of our RadioTimes.com reporters even remembers that year Tom Jones, Paloma Faith and Status Quo all shared a stage for a brief magical moment.
Well now, it’s back with its usual mix of genres, eras and personalities.
The 2024 line-up was announced just this week by Zoe Ball alongside the news that this year’s festival would take place in Preston, Lancashire.
Plus, for this first time, the festival will run over three days rather than two – with a Pre-Party on the DJ stage taking place on the Friday night, featuring Vernon Kay, Scott Mills, Sara Cox and more.
