Rammstein have been announced as Friday night headliners at Download Festival 2016. They will be joined by Saturday night headliners Black Sabbath, while Iron Maiden will bring the festival to an end on the Sunday night.

Rammstein said: “Download is a festival; it is not a moon landing.”

Download festival promoter Andy Copping commented:

“Rammstein! In 2013 they delivered quite possibly the best Download headline performance ever! I know they will step up and deliver for us again. If you haven’t seen them before, don’t miss them – you will not be disappointed!”

I cannot wait for this year- three of the biggest names in rock are heading to Donington. Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath have legacies to rival Download Festival and its rich rock heritage, it’s a match made in rock heaven. The mighty Iron Maiden back after another yet another number 1 album, the legendary Black Sabbath on their final tour and Rammstein who blow me away every time I see them – their headlining set at Download 2016 will make rock history.”

Weekend, day and RIP tickets go on general sale this Friday 23rd October, at 9am.
