BST Hyde Park, Day 9: The Best Of Present & Future Pop

After a rough weekend the week before, the weather gods made sure to bestow the final day of BST Hyde Park with sun and good weather, to celebrate another fantastic three weeks in the festival's history.

Some of the most exciting new voices on the music scene graced The Birdcage Stage for the last time, with AlienBlaze, Ben Ellis and Tyler Lewis bringing their own unique soundscapes and voices to the the intimate alcove tucked away on the festival site. All three were top-notch acts that demonstrated the best of the festival's ability to give some of the most promising artists a platform to be seen by an audience from around the world, and the growing crowd that could be seen during all three of their sets was a testament to their fantastic performances.

On the Rainbow Stage, Bellah Mae, Elijah Woods and Dhruv were able to connect with fans from both the UK as well as those who had flown in specially for the day. For Bellah Mae, it was a triumphant return to the festival after a successful debut at BST Hyde Park the year before, whilst Canadian popstar elijah woods and timeless R&B-pop artist Dhruv both brought high-quality soulful sets to an enthusiastic London crowd.

The Great Oak Stage bore witness to some of the biggest crowds of the entire festival, with KIRE, NMIXX, Alec Benjamin, Maisie Peters and Stray Kids (click on each of their names to check out individual reviews) bringing some of the best and beloved global pop to UK shores (check out their individual reviews here), with screams and cheers to be heard along with every single song throughout the day.

BST Hyde Park has garnered the reputation of being able to attract a bevy of some of the best musical talent from around the world to London for three glorious weeks, and this year's lineup was no different. From SZA to Kylie, Andrea Boccelli to Stray Kids, the festival is a once-in-a-liftime must-go for fans of some of the best music in the world. This was well encapsulated in the final day of the festival, with some of the best global stars and pop voices bringing their A-game to Hyde Park.
