The final day of Download Festival 2024 is, judging by many comments online from attendees and those who wish they were going alike, “the most stacked” line up of any day on this years’ festival.

We hear the phrase “Art is Subjective” so often that it feels at times like it’s lost all meaning or relevance. Even more so when it comes to the age of social media and everyone being terminally online. Liking or not liking something simply isn’t enough anymore.

They said it would never happen. Not in this lifetime they said. But not only are Guns N’Roses alive and well with 3/5ths of their iconic line up, and selling out stadiums the world over, they’re also the final headliners for the 2018 Download Festival. Axl, Duff and Slash will team up on the Donington…
We’ve got our second Download Festival 2018 headliners and as long suspected, it’s Avenged Sevenfold! Orange County’s finest are returning to the stage where they announced themselves as a festival headline calibre band in spectacular style four years ago when Download took a chance on them as new headliners in 2014.
