Donnington Park is the spiritual home to rock and metal, not only in the UK, but globally, which is why each year’s line-up for the famous Download Festival is one that is monitored closely.
This year’s initial announcement picks up where last year’s line-up left off, with the festival looking to continue it’s promotion of new names in the headlining slots, and more diversity across the festival itself.
The headliners consist of Queens of the Stone Age, and Fall Out Boy, who are both graduating to headliners for the first time, as well as Avenged Sevenfold, who last headlined in 2018.
Across the weekend, the likes of Babymetal, Royal Blood, Machine Head, The Offspring, Bad Omens, Polyphia, Corey Taylor, While She Sleeps, Fear Factory, and Sum 41 are all set to make appearances in prominent slots too. While the packed-out undercard also includes loads of fresh talent, such as Heriot, Vukovi, Noahfinnce, Hotwax, Scowl, and The Callous Daoboys, as well as plenty of other incredible bands.
2024’s edition of Download will be taking place from June 14th to June 16th at the legendary Donnington Park, Derby, England, with tickets available now directly from the official Download Festival website: www.downloadfestival.co.uk
