Devin Townsend Project have been announced as another UK festival exclusive for this year's Bloodstock.

After his appearance at last year's 10th Anniversary festival, where technical problems due to the bands gear being lost in transit forced them to cut their set short, and a stand-up followed, Bloodstock welcomes back the inimitable Devin Townsend Project to Catton Hall this year.

Davin said, "Hey everyone, this is Devin Townsend, and I would like to officially announce my appearance at this year's edition of the awesome Bloodstock festival! Last year was a difficult time for the band and the festival alike, and this time we will make sure our gear is there and we are ready to rip! The festival includes many of my favorite bands through the years and it's a total honor and privilege to be involved for the second year in a row!"

Devin joins a line-up of exclusives that includes Kreator, Napalm Death, Nevermore, Coroner, Angelwitch, At The Gates, Exodus, Lawnmower Deth, Therion, Mortal Angel, Immortal, Rhapsody Of Fire and Triptykon, as well Grave Digger, October File, The File, and The Sirens who are all playing over the weekend of Friday 12th until Sunday 14th August 2011 at Catton Hall, Walton-on-Trent, in South Derbyshire.

As well as the international heavy metal bands across three stages, Bloodstock offers a large selection of merchandise stalls, metal karaoke, a campsite and a wide selection of food and bars.

Tickets are on sale priced at £105 for adults, and £11 for a car parking pass. Day tickets, and child tickets are expected to be on sale at a later date.
