Description
The UK's finest metal event, DAMNATION FESTIVAL, will return to Leeds this October following the sold-out success of last year's showcase.
Tickets for the fifth annual DAMNATION FESTIVAL are now on sale… at last year’s price.
Despite an earlier opening time of 1pm, more bands across all three stages and a stronger bill of diverse rock and metal talent, briefs will be kept to £29.50, and a fewer number will be available than last year’s 3,500 capacity sell-out to help ease congestion in the Leeds University Union.
Bands confirmed for Damnation Festival 2009 - which will take place in Leeds University Union on Saturday, October 24th: Life Of Agony, Therapy?, Anathema, Lock Up, Destruction, Rotting Christ, Akercocke, Jesu, Mistress, This Will Destroy You, Negura Bunget, A Storm of Light, Charger, Firebird, Manatees, Minsk, Mithras, And So I Watch You From Afar, Stand-Up Guy, Nazxul and Rinoa.
Festival director Gavin McInally said: "Despite every effort being made to improve the festival - more bands, less clashes, earlier doors – we were determined to keep the ticket prices as low as last year.
“There will also be fewer tickets on general sale this year which – with careful billing and much better signage to the stages – should ease the congestion around the building.
“We were voted the UK’s best metal event by the fans that turned out in the numbers last year but they can be assured we’ll do everything in our power to continue to make the event even better.
