Download Festival‘s online #DownloadTV event will launch this weekend featuring many of the artists who would’ve been performing at Donington Park this year.
The tents have barely been packed away…or left behind…but already the 2020 festival season is taking shape with the announcement of Iron Maiden, KISS and System Of A Down as headliners for next year’s Download Festival.
Korn, Motorhead, Deftones, Megadeth, Nightwish and Disturbed have all joined the 2016 Download Festival line-up, which is to be headlined by Rammstein, Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath.
Iron Maiden‘s ‘The Book Of Souls‘ – currently at number one on the UK’s main album chart – has matched this success on the Record Store Chart this week, knocking Foals down to #2.
It’ll be a week after Metallica have brought hard rock to the tip of Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage that they’ll have joined Iron Maiden at Knebworth as Sonisphere headliners – but Maiden’s frontman Bruce Dickinson doesn’t seem to be in the mood for the two bands to share a bill at …
The Sonisphere festival will return next year with an emphasis on celebrating the 40th anniversary of the first concert to be held at Knebworth Park, organisers have confirmed.
Iron Maiden have been confirmed as the first band to headline next year’s Download festival.
The rock heavyweights will make their fifth appearance and third headline bow at the event on June 15th 2013. “I’m incredibly excited about it,” frontman Bruce Dickinson has told NME.
Iron Maiden‘s third studio album ‘The Number Of The Beast‘ has been voted as ‘the greatest British album of the last 60 years’ by a HMV poll conducted to mark the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee.
