The park was established in 1536 by Henry VIII when he reimagined the open spaces enveloping Westminster Abbey as his private hunting grounds. A century later, it opened to the public, joining a growing tide of royal green parklands now welcoming visitors for recreation and entertainment – it was particularly popular for hosting May Day celebrations. During the 18th and 19th centuries, Hyde Park became London’s pulse, hosting the 1851 Great Exhibition and serving as the site of countless protests, from Chartism to the Suffragette movement. By the 20th century, Hyde Park embraced rock music concerts, featuring icons like Pink Floyd and Queen, cementing its status as a cultural fixture in the capital.
