The Strokes have announced their return to the UK with a massive outdoor show at London's Hyde Park, with tickets on sale now. Full details can be found below.

The band will be joining the likes of Blur, The Who and Taylor Swift in headlining one of this summer's British Summer Time events - and better still, they'll be supported by Beck, Future Islands,  Temples, Public Service Broadcasting, The Wytches, Hinds, Gengahr, Yak, Kieran Leonard and more (which is pretty incredible). 

"It's been a while," said the band in a statement. "How are you? Are you well? Are you warm? Have you made it through the winter? Well, we hope so."

"January in Castle Strokes saw us huddled around the heater in the Lotus just trying to keep the chill out. It was bad, y'know? Real bad. I mean, a Lotus for crying out loud... It may seem a ways away but summer's still happening this year and we wanted to let you know The Strokes are planning another trip for another show, this time in London's Hyde Park on Thursday June 18th. And if that wasn't enough for us to be all excited about we're also stoked to tell you that Beck and Future Islands will be joining us on the day, which is pretty-freaking-awesome. Hope to see you there."

They added: "Bring a friend, maybe one with a big picnic blanket who'll let you have a go on their Oyster Card?"

This will be the band's first major UK show since they headlined Reading and Leeds in 2011, so it's going to be special. 

The Strokes play London's Hyde Park as part of British Summer Time on Thursday 18 June, tickets are on sale now. For tickets and more information, visit here
