Five, Dick & Dom, Electric Six and more for District X at Download Festival

The line-up for Download's District X is here and it is absolutely bananas.

Following in the dancing footsteps of Vengaboys last year, Download are keeping things moving with '90s boyband royalty Five taking to Donington Park for the very first time.

But they're not alone, this year's District X megaparty will also feature rock club faves Electric Six, a Dick & Dom DJ set, an acoustic set from The All-American Rejects and the mighty Bat Sabbath. Plus a bunch more DJ sets from Creeper, MODESTEP, Lucas from Holding Absence, and Cancer Bats' Liam Cormier.

Across the weekend, you'll also find live podcasts from ADHD Love, Sappenin' and The Metal Roundup, as well as some of most unique takes on some of your favourite bands including TokenGrass (a bluegrass tribute to Sleep Token) and Nic Cage Against The Machine (a Rage tribute band fronted by a Nic Cage impersonator). Yes, both of these things actually exist.

Check out the full District X line-up below. Download takes place June 12 – 14 at Donington Park. Get your tickets now.
