Heard its the former, not heard any solid rumours about the latter.

It's definitely 3 days, Dunno if they'll have both mainstages open Friday, or if it'll start later like in the past, I reckon with pricing, and the fact they seem to be encouraging people to go Thursday (by including EE in all weekend camping tix) it's going to be 3 full days.

looks like metallica won't be playing another date after all.

The remaining dates on this summer's European tour have been announced including shows in Helsinki, Stockholm, Oslo, Horsens, Rome, Basel, and Warsaw. Don't forget to vote for the setlist after you buy your tickets - make sure your voice is heard!

Sonisphere retweeted an article by Metal Hammer which had about ten guesses for the headliner which were like Foos, Muse, Machine Head, Tool, Slayer, Sabbath etc. And Sonisphere said some good guesses going on here.

Here's the article:

Yeah I think it'll be Sabbath now. Not doing Reading and Leeds, and you'd expect a UK festival if they're doing the rest of Europe. Soundgarden are supporting them everywhere, so that'd be a good bet to happen here too. SOAD don't seem to be doing anything, so I expect that rumour to be wrong.

Black Sabbath

Soundgarden

Iron Maiden

Machine Head

Metallica

Slayer

Maybe Machine Head headlining second with Placebo subbing instead. Can't remember which days Maiden and Metallica are confirmed for.

May do a prediction at some point but can see Soundgarden, Placebo and Bullet for My Valentine being the subs. Although any of those six could headline the Saturn stage also as it's a fairly similar sized slot. Plus can definitely see Mastodon and Alice in Chains returning.

Yeah Soundgarden and Sabbath would definitely get me thinking about a day ticket, but I fear I'll have the same problem with Download where the bulk of the undercard just really isn't for me. Having said that, if it was similar to the Saturday mainstage at Download this year I'd probably be alight because I quite liked the look of that (bar Maiden headlining :P)

Actually, thinking about it Soundgarden into Sabbath is the same as Download 2012, and then you've obviously got Metallica there as well- are they really going to go for that?

    • A question has crossed my (questionable) mind;   Has the size of the Green Fields remained the same as other areas have expanded / been added on to, since say, 2014 (the last time that I attended)? Are they 'lost' within, or well attended?    That's actually two questions. The second one just slipped in at the end by taking advantage of my lack of means to stop it.    
    • I'd say the same about Kylie.    Annie would be awesome, Duran not so much, and on the issue of them wanting a beanie slot, that probably rules out a fair few others who I think would fit the bill very well... and are legitimately more entitled to a headline, and/or too expensive.   Was just about to suggest Chaka Khan, but see @Gnomicide has beat me to it!    What about someone like Bryan Ferry?
    • It's certainly gone more that way, but then they went completely in the opposite direction and had Cat Stevens.
