Fourteen more bands have recently been added to the three-day Download Festival line-up, June 11-13. Some of these acts will be playing on the brand new Jägermeister acoustic stage – bringing the total of stages to five.
This has got to be one of the most exciting festival line ups Donington has ever witnessed. In true AC/DC, over-the-top style, they will be the first in Download Festival history to bring their own stage with them to Donington this year. Complete with pyrotechnics and all of the indescribable splendor that is an AC/DC production, the AC/DC Stage will be situated next to the Main Stage on Friday, 11 June. As a result, rock supergroup Them Crooked Vultures will be headlining the Main Stage on Friday before AC/DC take over on their own stage.
Other performers on the Maurice Jones Stage include Rage Against the Machine, Aerosmith, Stone Temple Pilots, Megadeth, Deftones, Taking Dawn …you simply must check the line-up on the official site to see all that the Download Festival (brought to you by Live Nation) has in store for you this year!
