In just over four days’ time, Download Festival will be revealing a whopping chunk of next year’s line-up – including the headliners!
We already knew that they’d be making their big announcement on Tuesday, November 12 at an exclusive ‘metal gala launch event’ in London, but now it’s been confirmed that the news is dropping for all to see at 9pm UK time – so set those alarms (not that many of you will be asleep by then… but you know what we mean).
On top of that, previously Download had teased that ‘more than 60 bands and artists’ would be revealed on Tuesday, but now that number has excitingly increased to over 90, according to a press release. Oooooft.
A full 24 hours after the line-up announcement, Download ticket pre-sales will kick off on Wednesday, November 13 at 9pm, before general on-sale goes live from Thursday, November 14 at 9pm. A range of RIP options are already sold out, and the limited Early Bird tickets are apparently not far behind.
Download Festival will take place at Donington Park from June 13 – 15, 2025.
