Download Festival have revealed the line-up for this year’s District X.
Away from the music in the main arena, the Donington bash is promising its “biggest and most diverse” offering ever with a ton of DJ sets, podcasts and even an appearance from the actual Vengaboys (who are apparently one of the “most requested bookings of all time”).
On DJ duties across the weekend are Cradle Of Filth’s Dani Filth, Kids In Glass Houses singer Aled Phillips, McFly’s Dougie Poynter, Cancer Bats dude Liam Cormier and the likes of Sophie K, Zoe London and Hang The DJs, while Funeral For A Friend will play an acoustic set.
Elsewhere there’ll be live podcasts from The Darkness’ Justin Hawkins (for his excellent Justin Hawkins Rides Again series) and On Wednesdays We Wear Black.
