Legendary thrash metal band Megadeth has been named the second headliner of Bloodstock Open Air 2017. They will headline Sunday night and close the festival.
Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine commented:
“We kick off 2017 by announcing we’ll be headlining Sunday night at Bloodstock, one of my favourite, purely metal, British festivals! Megadeth had a blast last time and I can’t wait to bring the Dystopia World Tour to Bloodstock this Summer. See ya at Catton Park in August!”
BOA 2017 already features Amon Amarth, Blind Guardian, Hatebreed, Testament, Obituary, Brujeria, Whitechapel, Possessed, Hell, Skindred, Annihilator, Municipal Waste and Decapitated.
The first wave of VIP tickets has already sold out and the remainder are expected to sell out in early 2017.
Available now is the deposit scheme/payment plan. The payment plan helps ease the ‘big lump’ shock of paying for your standard weekend ticket by breaking it up into five smaller, more manageable sums. You can sign up in the ticket store at any time between 22 Dec and 28 Feb, with an initial payment of £34.80 payable at that point. Thereafter, four additional instalments of £27.80 will debit your bank account on 1st April, May, June, and July respectively.

Children’s weekend tickets are also available, priced £35 (+ booking fee). Camper van pitches have now SOLD OUT.
