Download Festival have proudly unveiled an absolute bonanza for their 20th Anniversary, pushing in to new territory with a four day event via some true powerhouse artists up and down the line-up.
First off, the almighty METALLICA will be headlining BOTH the Thursday and Saturday night, promising two unique sets without a single song shared between the two. Alongside them, SLIPKNOT will be returning to the hallowed turf to close out the festival on Sunday night, adding to an already legendary string of shows at the festival. Sandwiched between all of this, and headlining for the first time in their storied career, BRING ME THE HORIZON will look to stamp their authority on proceedings headlining the Friday night. We told you, bonanza right?
