The film will be available in Australia, the United States, Canada, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Poland, Luxembourg, and more countries will be announced soon.
Due November 11 (Nov 12 in North America), “Sweet Summer Sun – Hyde Park Live” captures the band’s historic return to London’s Hyde Park with a 2-hour live concert and highlights package including new and unseen backstage footage.
In July, the Stones played two concerts in the famed London venue before a combined total of more than 100,000 fans.
“It was a great gig,” said Mick Jagger. “It was beautiful with the sun going down over Hyde Park. I can’t think of a better way celebrate the Rolling Stones’ 50 than doing it on our home patch in front of 100,000 people on a glorious summer night…enjoy it… we certainly did.”
“Coming back to Hyde Park was like a full circle being drawn, and the band were in top form,” added Keith Richards. “We thought what could be more appropriate than having a great summer in London!”
“Sweet Summer Sun – Hyde Park Live” will be available on DVD, Blu-ray, 2CD + DVD, 3LP + DVD, and a Deluxe Edition featuring a 60 page book + DVD + Blu-ray + 2CD package.
