Does anybody have an estimate of the size of the crowd?

No clue but I m guessing 65k.

50K was the max capacity I think though someone else can chime in if this article is wrong.

"And 16 years after tragic demise of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, Pearl Jam packed out a 50,000 capacity Hyde Park for one of the biggest shows of their 18-year career."

And this one has it at 55K

"By 8 p.m. the estimated 55,000 in attendance packed the grounds when Pearl Jam kicked off their two-hour set with "Given to Fly." The energy was massive from the get-go, with fists pumping and women sitting atop shoulders throughout the crowd (a few hedonistic ones popped their tops off for the JumboTron)"

Thanks for the information regarding the crowd size. We loved the show too(watching the streaming that is). I really enjoyed the camera work with plenty of views of all members of the band and lots of crowd footage as well. Loved the aerial views too.

Think they’ve now changed the site layout since the 2010 show to increase the capacity and it now stands at 65,000. Going to be a busy set of shows next year
