Bloodstock Festival have confirmed the second headliner for next year’s festival!

Following hot on the heels of last week’s announcement, in which we saw the likes of CHILDREN OF BODOM, HYPOCRISY, CRADLE OF FILTH, Dee Snider and more confirmed, now, the organisers of the UK’s biggest independent festival have revealed the second headliner; German rock legends SCORPIONS.

Having notched up 18 studio records, including 2015’s Return To Forever and have sold over 160 million albums in their 50+ year career, the band will grace the fields of Catton Hall for the first time next August. With frontman Klaus Meine at the helm, the band’s line up features iconic axemen Rudolf Schenker and Matthias Jabs, bassist Paweł Mąciwoda and former MOTORHEAD drummer Mikkey Dee who now sits behind the drums after stepping into the role in 2016.

Speaking about performing at next year’s festival, the band says, “we are very happy and proud to be headlining at Bloodstock Festival 2019 in Derbyshire and we‘re thrilled to rock our fans in the UK once again like a hurricane.”

Bloodstock Festival takes place at Catton Park, Derbyshire on 8th-11th August 2019. Early bird tickets (priced at £132) are on sale now and can be purchased here.
