Sleep Token are headlining Download Festival 2025.
Download Festival 2024 was a powerful event, with some incredible headliners – but Download Festival 2025 promises even bigger things.
While 2024 attendees enjoyed the likes of Avenged Sevenfold, Fall Out Boy and Queens of the Stone Age on the Apex Stage, things are hugely different for 2025.
It has just been announced that Green Day, Sleep Token and Korn will be headlining the festival next June at Donington Park. This incredible batch of headliners spans both genres and generations; with Green Day and Korn as some of the industry’s stalwarts, and Sleep Token as the newly-realised phenomenon that gets bigger by the day.
We have the full line-up as it stands below, but what’s more important is the upcoming ticket release. Fans have a chance to buy tickets this week for the upcoming festival, and we’ve got all the details you need below.

Download Festival 2025 line-up
The Download Festival 2025 line-up was recently confirmed with three headliners and a slew of massive artists.
At the top of the billing is Green Day, one of the most iconic pop-punk bands of all time, fronted by Billie Joe Armstrong. This is the first time the band have headlined Download Festival.
Sleep Token are up next; the cult with a following that simply will not stop growing. Fronted by the masked macabre maestro Vessel, this is a band that will not only intrigue you, but keep you hooked throughout their setlist.
Finally, Korn are finishing out Download Festival with their debut at the festival, as well. The nu-metal rockers are best known for Freak on a Leash and Coming Undone, and they’re no doubt going to give a hell of a performance next year.
