Download Festival 2025 Lineup: Green Day, Sleep Token, Korn to Headline
Donington Park will once again play host to the rock world’s crown jewel as Download Festival returns for its 22nd edition. Taking place from 13-15 June 2025, the festival has unveiled an explosive lineup that will redefine the boundaries of rock and metal festivals worldwide.
This year’s Download lineup boasts three electrifying headliners, each making their debut atop the Download main stage for the very first time. Punk-rock titans Green Day, anonymous alt-metal phenoms Sleep Token, and nu-metal icons Korn will headline the festival on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, respectively.
Together with over 90 legendary and rising bands from across the globe, Download 2025 is shaping up to be a can’t-miss event for any rock and metal fan.
Green Day: Punk Legends Take on Download
For the first time in their storied career, Green Day will bring their signature punk energy to Download’s main stage as the Friday night headliners. This momentous performance marks the pinnacle of their legacy, built over 37 years of culture-shaping albums and record-breaking tours.
Celebrating anniversaries of both Dookie and American Idiot this year, Green Day are poised to deliver an unforgettable night of classics and crowd anthems. From “Basket Case” to “Holiday,” expect Donington Park to become a sea of voices, fists, and punk-rock passion as Green Day brings their unmatched stage presence to the festival.
Sleep Token: The Anonymous Sensation Takes on Saturday Night
On Saturday, mysterious metal collective Sleep Token will step up as Download’s second headliner. Known for their eerie masks and evocative blend of metal, R&B, and rock, Sleep Token has quietly amassed millions of fans, becoming a sensation in just under a decade.
The band has proven their draw by selling out arenas this year, and now, they’re set to captivate the Donington faithful with an immersive, high-energy performance that promises to be both visually and sonically stunning. This historic headline slot further underscores Sleep Token’s rapid rise in the rock and metal world, marking them as a defining force in modern heavy music.
Korn: Nu-Metal Royalty to Close Out DLXXII
Bringing Download 2025 to a thunderous finale, Korn will take the main stage on Sunday. After 31 years of redefining the sound of nu-metal and inspiring countless bands, Korn’s debut as Download headliners is long overdue.
Expect adrenaline-charged performances of hits like “Freak on a Leash” and “Falling Away from Me” as they close out the festival with their intense sound and larger-than-life stage presence. Korn’s influence on metal is unrivaled, and their long-awaited headline slot at Download will be a historic night for the band and fans alike.
A Diverse Lineup of Legends and Rising Stars
Beyond the headliners, DLXXII’s lineup is packed with genre-defining acts and exciting newcomers alike. Weezer will bring their beloved alt-rock anthems, while the Sex Pistols featuring Frank Carter will add a fiery punk edge. Emo titans Jimmy Eat World, metal mainstays Bullet for My Valentine, and symphonic metal powerhouse Within Temptation are just a taste of the lineup’s diversity.
With bands like Eagles of Death Metal, The Darkness, Meshuggah, and Spiritbox joining the bill, fans can expect wall-to-wall high-octane performances throughout the weekend. For metalcore and hardcore devotees, The Ghost Inside, Sylosis, and Whitechapel are sure to deliver unforgettable sets. Meanwhile, icons like Jerry Cantrell and Cradle of Filth will bring a dose of classic rock and gothic metal to the event.
Other notable acts include Steel Panther, Fit for an Autopsy, Lorna Shore, Airbourne, Alien Ant Farm, CKY, McFly, Don Broco, Mallory Knox, and countless others, ensuring that there’s something for every rock and metal fan across the weekend’s stages.
An Unforgettable Launch Event

The event included a short film titled Est Momentum, featuring Paddy Considine (House of the Dragon, Peaky Blinders), who also performed with his band Riding the Low.
