You won’t be able to call them once inside.
Scroll down for the Eagles’ stage and schedule tonight, June 26. Also, all supporting acts on the main stage and three smaller satellite stages, starting in the afternoon.
NEAREST SUBWAY: Hyde Park Corner on the Piccadilly line is the closest to the main south entrance. For the north entrance at the end of the precinct, use the Marble Arch station on the Central Line.
