Massive Attack have announced they will be supplying a fleet of coaches to give Bristolians a chance to see them perform at for AEG Live's Barclaycard presents British Summer Time happening in London's Hyde Park on Friday 1st July 2016.

The band decided to offer hometown fans coaches after tickets for their Bristol Downs show were in high demand and sold out in just an hour. Tickets with coach travel went on sale today Tuesday 14th June.

Massive Attack said, "We won’t be adding another date in Bristol this summer, but we don’t want people to pay touts over the odds. The unbelievable demand from Bristol meant that we looked for a way to help everyone to see us this summer. So we’re arranging for a fleet of buses to take people from Bristol to our show in London’s Hyde Park on Friday 1st July, at no extra charge. It’ll be great to have some of our fellow Bristolians up in London with us on July 1st."

Massive Attack will be supported on the line-up by Young Fathers, Patti Smith & her band, Ghostpoet, TV on the Radio, Warpaint, and more.
