Last year we had all the same thing, AC/DC even self confirmed, Andy himself PROMISED the announcement would be before Xmas as they wanted people to be able to buy tickets for presents, what happened?

They put the tickets on sale for Xmas only without any announcement and then took them back off sale until the launch.

Hope they learnt from their mistakes this time around.

By the way those rumours are SWEET!

We are trying to guess here who is playing ???

We can make it a wee bit easier by working out who it is not...

It won't be

1. Peral Jam they have said that they are on an indefinite break for the next few years

2.s.o.a.d say it's too early to reunite after their break and serj has dates booked next year

My money is still on

3 headline acts for main stage

Friday-Soundgarden

Saturday-Iron Maiden or Metallica

Sunday-Van Halen

others as special guests will include

Scorpions as part of their farewell shows

Judas Priest say there are shows happening next year but would they take a special guest slot ?

Rob Zombie will be touring next year for the first time in ages ?

oh and if rumours might be true there could be a 1 off performance for the original Sepultura ?

Download just tell us something soon please

Pretty spot on id say. Tho ditch metallica as theyl be at Soni. but yes Soundgarden, iron Maiden and Van Halen are all very likely. Also Tool and Ozzy Osbourne are the other 2 in with big shouts of headlining. So 3 from 5. Although i dont think Ozzy solo would have the draw he once did do headline a big festival like Download.....So i think he'l be at High Voltage myself.

But im guessing in terms of whos on what day

FRIDAY ------------------------------ SATURDAY --------------------------------SUNDAY

Iron Maiden --------------------------Foo Fighters ----------------------------------Ozzy

Avenged Sevenfold------------Queens of the Stone Age----------------Rob Zombie

tbh, whats interesting about festivals this year is that theres loads of bands that could go ethir way. for example foo fighters could easily play download,soni,reading or glastonbury (but i can't see them at sonisphere tbh).

i think foo fighters will be snatched up by reading though, i'm sure i've mentioned his love for the festival and it has been a long while since playing there.

i recon muse are a good contender, http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/news/upcoming_tours/acdc_muse_foo_fighters_to_headline_download_2008.html

its from 2008 but i doubt the organiser has changed his view on them (even though the resitance is their weekest album)

i doubt iron maiden or ramstine will headline downlaod this year, considering the festivals share such a similar market it just dosen't seem right then again iron maiden are so massive i doubt anyone would care...

queens of the stone Age headling would be the greastist thing ever. i think it will depend on the success of their next album.

ozzy is an artist that could fall soni or download

linkin park are definetly a mash up between download and reading. i'd put my money on readign as its been longer since they've headlined it

unless there is a massive swing in popular interest i can't see mcr playing unless they headline a tent, apparently there headlining set went down like a shit in a bath.

if download book Gnr their fools. highly doubt it.

question to form:

are the red hot chillie peppers? can't decided if they'd fit the bill

could bullet headline? (i don't want them too, but their popularity has grown massivly...)

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
