BLOODSTOCK ANNOUNCES 14 BANDS FOR 2024

The UK’s biggest independent metal Festival Bloodstock has just wrapped on this years event but there’s no hitting the brakes for the team as they have announced two of the headliners for next year’s festival as well as a host of other names set to grace the fields of Catton Park.

Viking metal pioneers AMON AMARTH are set to headline Sunday night’s Ronnie James Dio main stage in a 2024 UK exclusive show. Speaking on the announcement AMON AMARTH’s chief marauder Johann Hegg says: “England! We are excited to be returning to the Bloodstock hallowed grounds to do battle with you and the Saxon hordes! We look forward to fighting and feasting with you! See you soon.” Check out a message from the band here.

A surprising addition are Saturday headliners ARCHITECTS which will be a 2024 UK exclusive show and their first time at Bloodstock! This will be the bands first major UK festival headline show, however they are definitely no strangers to the big stage having recently supported Metallica in stadiums around Europe as well as some huge festival slots including a second to last slot on the main stage at this year’s Download festival.

American hard rock heroes CLUTCH will take the special guest slot on Friday’s main stage and a Bloodstock favourite British hardcore squad MALEVOLENCE step up to a Saturday main stage slot – their 3rd time playing Bloodstock in 4 years. Also appearing on the main stage across the weekend are Greek black metal crew ROTTING CHRIST, Celtic punk collective FLOGGING MOLLY, Canadian power metal outfit UNLEASH THE ARCHERS, Swedish rockers NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA, Greek death metallers SEPTIC FLESH and Albion psych doomsters GREEN LUNG.

On the Sophie Lancaster big top stage, France’s IGORRR land a Friday night headline slot in a UK 2024 exclusive, with other Sophie stage sets coming from Finnish folk metallers KORPIKLAANI, Scottish black/speed metal project HELLRIPPER and Moldovan metal squad, INFECTED RAIN.
