It’s finally happening!
Who do we reckon?

If this isn't for Faith No More, I'm going to be so disappointed 😔

App has just updated!

I was sat thinking of the previous headliners over the last few years and I’m still astonished that sleep token headlined. Nothing against them, I’ve never actually listened to them but comparing them to the likes of Green Day, Korn, Linkin Park, Metallica, Slipknot, BMTH who’ve headlined in the past few years is actually insane. Do you think they were headliner worthy? And what bands do you think could potentially headline now because sleep token did?

Does anyone know roughly how much the tickets are likely to go up by after the first announcement? Wondering whether to just bite the bullet now… currently 3night camping is 325, and non camping weekend is 285…

Will be fist time going next year. A mate of mine bought a ticket for general and I just followed suit.

Since found that another mate always camps in eco with a bunch of others and we'd like to get in on it.

Annoyingly, I can swap my ticket by buying a new one and refunding, but my mate can't apparently as he has addons on his (parking, tshirts, etc).

What's the general likelihood of a couple of people wanting to swap their eco for general so we can join the gang? Cheers

Best guess at it (DFA1979 is wishful thinking)

Forget your Scooter and Venga Boys. I think it's about time we let the Legend that is "Corey Feldmen" take to the Stage on the Hallowed Ground! I think He would be Great! Who's with? 😉🤘

This is my second download and I want to know

Here's what I'm trying to manifest. Hopefully we'll get a nice mix of everything. Couldn't think of a novelty act, I think the idea of one outside District X isnt really my thing.

Shame you cant do little bands like the actual poster, I think i had more of them in mind than logo bands!

Just for the sake of absolute clarity, this is not a leak nor a prediction. Just a question. They are the primary band (along with set it off) that got me into these types of music, and I even have a tattoo of their album cover. I love this band and personally feel like they would make an amazing headliner. Do you feel the same, if not what are some of the reasons you feel they aren't worthy of a headliner spot.

Is anyone else going to see Mick Gordon?

Because of Cypress Hill’s great set subheading for Limp Bizkit this year it got me thinking, what other big rap or hiphop artists could play next year?

My predictions (taken with a side of salt):

Public Enemy - played at aftershock this year

Denzel Curry - Toured with Deftones, Toured and collaborated with Knocked Loose

Joey Valence & Brae - Played download before

Ice Cube (not likely)- collaborated with Korn ages ago pretty big in the rock scene

Mgk (probably wouldn’t be as welcomed as the others) played download before, collaborated with Limp Bizkit + many other rock/metal artists, makes pop punk music sometimes I guess ?😭

Skrillex (not rap or hiphop I just wanted to mention him) - Emo past in From First To Last , Rock/metal collaborations

Me and my partner are planning on taking the Big Green Coach down next year to camp for the five days since neither of us drive. I have attended in previous years but have driven down with my ex (not an option anymore for obvious reasons) but my partner has never been to a festival that has required camping; I know he'd love it and I really want to give him this experience regardless of what it costs me.

I know the coach has a limit on bags per person but I was just wondering if anyone could clarify that limit realistically. I am so fine with getting to the festival and paying for whatever needs paying for, whether that be air mattresses and camping chairs or booze and food. I'm just trying to get an idea of how much we would realistically be able to take on the coach between the two of us.

One of my favourite bands that I've loved for decades. Last played download in 2008. Would people like them to play again?

Hi! I'm looking to take my 11 year old son next year to download festival. I have ever been before (not my kind of music I'm doing this for him)

With it being school time we'd only be able to go on the weekend, what ticket options would I be looking at for this? Can we camp one night on the Saturday or would we need to just do 2.day passes and arrange staying elsewhere?

With their tour just announced, they're in Germany the whole weekend through to the Monday, but with a 2.5 day gap Saturday Sunday (Monday morning for travel). How likely would it be for them to make an appearance? Do other bands do that sort of a commute to Download between Europe shows? Seems like a massive pain in the arse to go to and from Germany, though feasible. Debating whether to buy tickets for the tour or hope for them to make an appearance at Download.

After the gig at The 1865 in Southampton I feel strongly that Fear Factory needs to play Download again, next time Main or Second Stage, NOT the tent. Does anyone agree?
