Information about the Park: http://www.royalparks.gov.uk/parks/hyde_park/
There's a map on that page, showing the whole park with the bandstand in the bottom right corner, but for another map of the just that corner, showing the location of the Tube stations: http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?G2M?X=528043&Y=180075&A=Y&Z=1

If there's a tube strike then get the bus. (Get it anyway! Much more fun.)
