On September 18th, 1976, Queen decided they wanted to say thanks to their dedicated fans, and so - in true extravagant style - they staged a huge free concert in London's Hyde Park. This ptoduced the largest audience Queen had played to up to that time,the crowds were estimated at between 150 and 200 thousand people, and to date still the highest-ever attendance record for a concert in Hyde Park.
