I think they'll struggle next year with headliners myself, AC/DC won't be back, Aerosmith, Def Leppard, System, Slipknot, Metallica, Iron Maiden all been too recent. My Chemical Romance who I thought could return have split up. KISS don't appear to be a strong enough lead headliner, I don't think they'll be able to get a classic rock act.

I don't know if they'd risk getting Biffy after it would only be a 2 year gap and them headlining Reading this year plus doing a massive tour.

I think the headliners will end up being Avenged Sevenfold, Tool and Red Hot Chili Peppers. But theres no real STRONG mass appeal headliner there, you would say RHCP but interest has dwindelled, if they're ready to tour again, I think Copping will go all out and try and get Foo Fighters.

Tool - Avenged Sevenfold - Foo Fighters that seems much stronger.

In fact, I think with the news Foos have started the new album when they were going to be away for a long while, only adds to the fact they've decided to do fests in 2014 afterall, I'd bet the farm Foos are the leading headliner for next year

LostProphets reunion tour??

Really hope it's not Tool, no matter how hard I try I just don't get them. Saw them years back at Ozfest and thought they were dire and never want to see them again...

Problem is, as everyone says year on year, the pool to pick from is pretty small. You can go out on a limb for one headliner, but you are limited for the other 2 and the rest of the main stage line up. How about megadeth / slayer co headlining one day? I mean both bands seem to have lived at Donington for the last 10 years and I for one am pretty gutted neither are hear this year, always quality performances in my opinion...

Would quite like to see something a little out if the box as well. Prodigy ripped it up last year and it's a good way to broaden the limited spectrum a little. Great to see bands like Hacktivist and Sonic Boom 6 on the bill this time around. Don't get me wrong, this is a rock festival first and foremost but a little variation is refreshing...

Or if we want to go with a big hair metal singalong kind of day how about Bon Jovi with Nickelback subbing?? Ok, I'll get my coat...

    • 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. 🙂
