Festival organisers have more bands to add to the #DL20 line up, including STATE CHAMPS, PUSCIFER, HUNDRED REASONS and more!
Plus, they know you’ve been waiting, so they also have the stage splits for ya!
The ever enigmatic Maynard James Keenan will be returning to Donington, this time with his electro-rock band PUSCIFER making their Download debut. Expect the unexpected! Fresh off the back of their latest album ‘Glorious Sunset’, HUNDRED REASONS haven’t played Download since 2006 and we can’t wait to welcome them back to the home of rock.

CHERRY BOMBS have supported the likes of Corey Taylor on tour, and are known to combine dance, fire, aerial, stilt walking, and more into one hell of a rock and roll show. Hardcore punks CANCER BATS and 00’s revivalists STATIC DRESS will also play the Opus Stage across the weekend.

Get practicing your pogo-ing: STATE CHAMPS are headed to Download! Organisers hoping to hear the pop punk heroes play some tracks off latest album ‘Kings Of The New Age’ – Download Dog has been blasting it since last summer. After a fun packed set in the Village last year, PUNK ROCK FACTORY will be bringing their bonkers covers to the Avalanche tent for the very first time.
Welsh five piece CASEY reunited last year, much to the joy of fans who missed their emotive alt-rock. Aussie alt-rockers REDHOOK are sure to blow the roof off the tent with their killer singalong choruses. Plus, Newcastle metal band RITUALS were the winners of Kerrang’s ‘The Deal’ competition, meaning they’ll be opening the Avalanche Stage on Saturday!
UK prog metal band HAKEN formed in 2007, but will be playing at Download in 2023 for the very first time! If you’re into prog blended with electro, djent and dub (how epic does THAT sound), you’ll want to head over to the Dogtooth Stage on Thursday.
Also making their Download debut are South East alt duo SNAYX – let’s give ’em a warm welcome and show them how we do it in Donington!
