Description:
The Download Festival is the UK's premier Rock Festival. A mammoth 5 day rock event, based at the spiritual home of rock - Donington Park. Produced and promoted by Live Nation, The Download Festival is now in its seventh year. Previous heavy rock superstars headlining the event have included Iron Maiden, KISS, Metallica, Guns N' Roses, System of a Down, and Black Sabbath. With 3 days of incredible live music, across 3 stages and around 100 bands performing, Download Festival will be the ONLY festival to see some of the best heavy rock on the planet in 2009 - but of course the complete, now fully established Download experience(including camping facilities, 'RIP' packages and entertaining carnival atmosphere) is about far, far more than just the music - it's simply not to be missed.
