Six more bands announced for Download Festival
Download Festival have confirmed another six bands for this year’s line-up!
Bringing their mastered sounds of symphonic metal to the Zippo Encore Stage on the Saturday will be EPICA, but not before ELVANA have had their fun by bringing their ELVIS fronted NIRVANA tribute act, a certain one to watch and see how that works. Also added to the bill is Toronto rockers THE BEACHES, THE INSPECTOR CLUZO, PALISADES and BLURRED VISION.
On top of the fantastic new music announcements, The Side Splitter Stage located in The Village, will host some of the finest and hilarious standups, character acts, and musical comedy. Joining the already announced Jim Breuer, are Mock The Week regular Ed Gamble, plus Aaron Simmonds, Allyson June Smith, Andrew Bird, Andy Field, Brett Domino, Dan Nightingale, Danny Mcloughlin, David Longley, Emmanuel Sonubi, Jimmy Mcghie, John Lynn, Jonathan Mayor, Laura Lexx, Lou Conran, Mark Simmons, Milo Mccabe, Rachel Fairburn, Rich Wilson, Rob Kemp, Stephen Buchanan, Sully O’ Sullivan and Thomas Green.
And if that wasn’t enough, as WWE NXT UK returns, Download will welcome NXT superstars Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly of Undisputed ERA, Shayna Baszler, Matt Riddle, and even more to come!
The return of SINDROME will also be greeting the arena – a place of death-defying record-breaking stunts and spectacular shows injected with a heavy dose rock ‘n’ roll. New performers for 2019 include aerial contortionists El Duomi, Chilean death metal Bullicio Puppets, Aima Indigo’s ‘Nympho Nun’ show and the return of the UK Air Guitar Championships, where fans are invited exclusively to enter into this internationally recognised competition and to gain the chance of becoming the UK’s ultimate 2019 Air Guitar Hero and a shot at the world title in Finland.
With one month to go, we’re excited, are you?
Download Festival takes play at Donington Park between 14-16 June. Tickets are available here.
