If this is anything like the Greatest Showman O2 gig that he did, it will be full of women audibly swooning at everything he says. It was hilarious 😁

Even for fans of Jackman, the actual day as a whole could be a horror show. I can just imagine an undercard of theatre musical singers and endless jazz hands. Special guest's like Syndey Christmas, Keala Settle etc, or I just being mean?

 

To be honest, I am a little worried as my other half loves Jackman and may just want to drag me to this for the pure fun of knowing I will not like it. I bloody hated the greatest showman.

 

i am curious as to who will be supporting, musical singers, pop acts I really dont know.

No way to really know I suppose. I'm no massive Hugh Jackson fan either. He sold out the O2 arena in London for 6 nights doing this sort of thing so you'd imagine they have a fair idea of what they're at.

 

Who knows, could be a disaster but then it might not be. Not a bad thing to try something different every now and again and mix it up. It's certainly a way to get people talking about the festival though and promote the other nights at the same time. I enjoyed the Greatest Showman and am currently in the same boat of the other half looking to attend this. 

 

Ah well an experience if nothing else

While he is not my thing, I get that others will enjoy his set and expect it will sell well. I am just fascinated as to who the undercard will be, obviously the mandatory Cuban Brothers will be there. It's just a shame they did not add some names to the initial poster release.

Am I right in thinking BST is over 3 weekends next year? Is that always the case? I always thought it was 2…….

It was 2, until a few years ago.

 

When the BBC decided to take their annual "in the Park" concerts on the road outside of London, AEG (successfully) applied to change the Hyde Park event licence so that they could move those slots to BST, giving them 9 event days over 3 weekends
