Download Festival 2026

This June, Download Festival returned to Donington Park, once again proving why it remains the UK’s ultimate destination for rock and metal. Across a weekend that defied the rain and welcomed bursts of sunshine, more than 75,000 passionate fans descended on the legendary site.

With headliners Linkin Park, Guns N’ Roses and Limp Bizkit delivering blockbuster performances across Download’s iconic stages, a genre-spanning lineup showcased the festival’s evolution. From the crushing riffs of Pendulum to the soaring power of Babymetal, Download balanced legendary heavyweights with the next generation of metal talent – with Keanu Reeves’ band, Dogstar, adding an unexpected edge to the eclectic bill.

This year BUILDHOLLYWOOD tapped back into the energy, partnering with leading promoters, labels and artists to amplify the festival experience. Working with Live Nation, DIABOLICAL delivered striking 4-sheet executions for Amon Amarth, Spiritbox, Shinedown, Thrown, Korn, RØRY and Green Lung, as well as a multi-format campaign for Ice Nine Kills, whilst JACK paired challenger drinks brand, BeatBox, across our 4-, 16- and 48-sheet formats.

Further across the field, DIABOLICAL also collaborated with Nuclear Blast Records on a dedicated poster campaign for Loathe and Epitaph Records across their campaigns for Death Cab for Cutie and South Arcade.
