    It seems Vodafone revealed the wrong act yesterday, and Slipknot will be the final headliner announced for the 11th Download Festival which happens at Donington Park over the weekend of Friday 14th to Sunday 16th June 2013.

    The announcement means the masked band will be making their second headline appearance on the opening night, following their last show in 2009. Iron Maiden have already been confirmed to headline Saturday, and Rammstein the Sunday. There are no other acts confirmed yet for 2013.

    Slipknot's Clown said, "We are extremely honoured to have been asked once again to headline the Download Festival. This most definitely will be an experience not to be missed. Every time we've played Download we have created memories. Its always good to have the church of the Knot, the alter of the Knot, giving the sermon of the Knot to the congregation of the Knot, the culture of the Knot. This summer cannot come soon enough. Partake in the imagination or don't bitch."

    Andy Copping, VP of Promotions at Live Nation commented, "Slipknot's last appearance at Download has gone down in the festival's history as one of the best ever headline sets. God knows what they'll have in store for 2013 but I'm looking forward to seeing how they'll top the last one."

    Tickets will go on sale on Friday 28 September at 9am, and eFestivals will have links to buy them then. Tickets will be priced at £165 for a weekend arena ticket, £190 for 3 nights with camping, and £195 for 5 nights with camping. Family camping is also available, and advance parking is priced at £20
