I guess so! I didn't expect this festival to happen again: such a short time to announce. Guns N Roses as headliners and announcement finally happening soon? I can imagine a band like Five Finger Death Punch as another headliner. Or Parkway Drive.

Aren't GnR rumoured to be playing Glastonbury on 24th?

We have a theory: Maynard James Keenan is touring Puscifer in the US and EU over the summer. He has selected double festival gigs with Puscifer and TOOL in the US. Rockville and Sonic Temple. He has a perfect gap to do the same at Download Germany in his touring plan with Puscifer.

I know this is a lot of wishful thinking, but they got to have something big up their sleeve if they really want to shift thousands of tickets for a location in the middle of nowhere just 4 months in advance.

The same theory doesn‘t fit with Graspop as Maynard cannot do two gigs there, but he has room for a show on the Friday…

EDIT: And yeah. It can hardly be GNR as this would be their first back to back nights in two different places since the reunion. But maybe the paycheck is big enough to do it anyways.

Some dates leaking here and there. I guess it's coming today

I read 3pm. Don't know BE or UK time. But def. today (finally)! I guess Graspop will only focus on GNR announcement and nothing else today. Hopefully we won't wait too much for the other names... and other headliner.

Which dates have specifically leaked?

07.07 Mad Cool
11.07 Landgraaf (Pinkpop field)
13.07 Paris (Stade de France or Parc des Princes I guess)

On a French festival about Graspop, they posted: 
"Dans les dates en rumeurs, il y a le Mad Cool le 7 juillet, Landgraaf le 11 juillet, et Paris le 13 juillet. Pour les Etats Unis il y a une date le 9 septembre au Busch Stadium qui est sortie. On sera bientôt fixés."

So rumors about the dates said below as well as a show in the US on September 9th. Some people on FestiLeaks also speak about it but I don't know if it's relevant or not.

BE Time. But it's GnR, so it also could be a couple of hours later 😉

About the last headliner... I think it may have to do something with Download Germany. They haven't announced anything yet and they need at least two big names. First I thought GNR was going there but that is not on their tour (they do have a 6 day break between Oslo and Glasgow at that time).

Which bands are that big and available that would make Download Germany two day festival and not announce anything yet? Still thinking A7X and Tool... I'd be so happpy if Tool comes to Graspop.

Tool and AC/DC if they are touring this summer. There were rumours about AC/DC tour, but still nothing… 

And for Graspop, I think they will announce BMTH next week after the Antwerpen show. Or in worst case, Nightwish or Evanescence

    • 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.
