Why do people not hold down on the image and hit 'save image' rather than screenshotting? It's legit easier cos you don't accidentally mistime it.

It’s legitimate. It was emailed out to RIP campers last night.

What's the nightlife like at Download?

Theres the pub that plays more classic rock/metal stuff, the doghouse that tries to play more contemporary stuff with themed club nights and then silent disco. All go on until 3.

Morning,

Black Peaks still on the list/app/etc.

Fingers crossed they're going to make it.  I'm enjoying their shanties.

The set times have slightly changed on the Avalanche Stage on the Sunday, with Enter Shikari now playing at 20:20, which means that I can watch The Smashing Pumpkins, Enter Shikari and Tool now. 

I can’t quite belive that Download is next week

Has it been 100% confirmed anywhere that Black Peaks are definitely playing?

Weather isn't looking great, swear it rains every year

Recommendations for bands to watch this weekend please.

i buy my ticket every year, regardless of the line up, but there is less this year that directly appeals. 

Tents or stages, I don’t care. Let’s have some options.

Not really rained for the last 2. Tho, it did rain for about 5 straight years before that.

However, i might leave the sun cream at home this year.

Green is where I'm likely to go, pink is where I might if I change my mind.

I'd recommend catching Zebrahead's set. Great guys who always put on a fun show and try and get newcomers involved with drink segments and crowd participation.

Elvana and Power Trip is a cruel crossover. First time at the fest so unsure what the distance between the main stages is like – a 5m sprint or more like a half hour?

Depends how close you want to get to the stage(s).

You can walk from Zippo to Main in like 5 - minutes. But you'll be on the periphery.

Battling to the front will take a lot longer.

Avalanche to Fourth is the longest hike, and involves the hill which won't be much fun when sodden.

Have a great festival all. Hopefully the worst of the rain has passed, but don't forget your wellies/boots! 

[Paul ™]

It's grim there, was on site earlier briefly in via Black Gate to drop staff off (my other half) and its messy there already and relentless rain here last few days is to continue next 2 days 

[devilman]

Thanks Paul. You gonna be working/attending?

[Arun1910]

Does anyone have a link to a bigger site map? This is my first Download and I can't even read the crappy sized map on their site.

nvm just found it: https://downloadfestival.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/DL19_4890_PublicMap_027_3500px.pdf
