The Download Festival is the place to be in June for any true, die-hard Rock, Metal or Punk fan. The festival brings together everything that is unholy about loud, distorted guitars, pounding drums and powerful vocals. Download is the three days in the year set aside for uncontrollable bouts of head banging and ear crushing riffs from the gods of heavy music. Originally beginning as the Monsters of Rock in 1980 the festival became known as Download as of 2003 having the previous year been home to Black Sabbath front-man Ozzy Osbourne’s Ozzfest. In the years since the festival at Donnington Park has been host to the most seminal Rock acts in music history.

So who’s played here in the past then? Metallica, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Motley Crue, Slipknot, Rage Against The Machine, Tool - a true rocker’s dream! How often in the U.K. do you get all these huge names from the Rock and Metal worlds together in one place? In terms of music in the British Isles, this is the event of the year for Rock music fans. AC/DC’s set in 2010 stands as one of the most memorable ever and has certainly cemented the festival in Rock history. It really isn’t a regular thing for a band to bring its own stage to a festival, yet this was AC/DC. Canons and fireworks accompanied one of history’s great bands in a spectacular performance to some 90,000 fans which has now become one of those great festival moments - the kind of one where there some can say: “I was there!”
