With less than three months to go, Download Festival has revealed an exhilarating line-up for District X—the renowned festival within a festival. District X amplifies the Download experience by offering continuous entertainment. With a diverse range of activities that extend beyond music—including mesmerizing performances and interactive events—it ensures that attendees will discover something enjoyable at any hour, day or night.
This year’s lineup features the iconic pop group Vengaboys, exclusive DJ sets from fan-favorite artists, intimate acoustic sessions, unexpected surprise acts, engaging quizzes, live podcasts, comedy shows, and unique entertainment experiences.
District X promises an exciting selection of new adventures with interactive quizzes themed around Green Day, Sleep Token, and Korn hosted by Kitty Cowell. Festivalgoers can anticipate wrestling showcases, a creative twist on bingo games, the Never Mind The Download pub quiz, comedy acts from up-and-coming talents as well as aerobics sessions and sports day activities. Moreover—a special treat—surprise secret performances are scheduled throughout the weekend—an exclusive tidbit shared in this month’s Download Family inner circle newsletter—ensuring guests encounter delightful surprises at every turn.
Set to take place from June 11–15 in 2025 at the legendary Donington Park venue, Download Festival continues to enhance its offerings beyond just the main stage.
