Fresh from opening his 12-night stand at London’s Wembley Stadium, on Tuesday (June 16) Harry Styles found himself in a more intimate environment for a special one-off show at London’s Meltdown Festival, where he treated the crowd to a varied setlist of covers, deep cuts and reimagined songs with the Jules Buckley Orchestra.

Styles was appearing as part of the festival, held at Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall, which he is also curating for 2026. Previous curators include Robert Smith, David Bowie and Grace Jones.
