They also announced some other big names such as AlexIsOnFire, Architects, Disturbed, Evanescence, Ghost, I Prevail, Pendulum, Placebo, Asking Alexandria and many many more!

I first attended Download Festival in 2018, headlined by Avenged Sevenfold, Guns n Roses & Ozzy Osbourne, which further sparked my interest in the music industry, I discovered artists like Bury Tomorrow, Greta Van Fleet, Neck Deep and BlessTheFall. I then attended again in 2019 and 2022, of which I thoroughly enjoyed, despite the rainfall in 2019!
I am super excited to be attending the festivals 20th Anniversary, Metallica are a band I have on my bucket list of artists to see, but there are so many more artists on the line up that I am super excited to see again or for the first time.
As it stands before the announcement today, these are: Pendulum, Evanescence, Ghost, I Prevail, Parkway Drive, Within Temptation, Fever 333, As December Falls, Asking Alexandria, Kid Bookie, Polaris, Seether, Three Days Grace, Behemoth, Disturbed, Architects and of course, Bring Me The Horizon & Slipknot. I can already tell, my weekend is gonna be full of clashes. Wish me luck!
