Rage Against The Machine, Aerosmith To Headline Download Festival

February 15, 2010
Rage Against The Machine, Aerosmith To Headline Download FestivalRage Against The Machine and Aerosmith have been unveiled as the final two headline acts at this summer’s Download festival.

The rock event runs from June 11-13 at Donnington Park.

Previously announced headliners AC/DC will top the bill on the opening night, while Rage Against The Machine headline the main stage on Saturday.

Aerosmith, who last appeared at the festival 16 years ago, will close the event.

They are expected to appear with singer Steven Tyler, whose future in the band has been uncertain in recent months.

A further five acts are due to be announced later this evening.

Tickets for the Download festival are on sale now.
