The Who Live In Hyde Park coming to cinemas worldwide



The Who will bring the final UK concert appearance of their 50th anniversary farewell tour to cinemas worldwide on October 7.

“The Who: Live In Hyde Park” captures the band at the famed London venue on June 26 of this year as they delivered a greatest hits set to 65,000 fans.

The concert footage is rounded out with interviews featuring Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey, as well as Iggy Pop, Robert Plant, Johnny Marr and more.

"It's a good gig,” says Townshend. “You draw from all over the country but a London crowd is always a good crowd.”

“It's a Royal Park,” he adds, “so thank you your majesty, you can't play it without her permission.”

As part of the 50th anniversary farewell trek, The Who will begin a fall North American tour in San Diego, CA on September 14.
