Description

Bloodstock Open Air is a heavy metal festival held annually at Catton Hall in Walton-upon-Trent, England, since 2005. Previous line-ups have included bands such as Opeth (2008/2010), Children of Bodom (2005/2010), Nightwish (2008), Cradle of Filth (2009), Testament (2007), and Arch Enemy (2007/2009).


Band signing sessions take place throughout the festival, where fans can get their merchandise signed by performing artists.


2007 saw the addition of a third stage, originally called the 'Lava Stage' (named for the hot molten rock) which in 2009 became the Sophie Lancaster Stage.


This third stage is hosted by Bloodstocks own resident DJs 'The 4 DJs Of The Apocalypse' who provide entertainment throughout the day, 'Rock & Metal karaoke' each night after most of the bands have finished, and DJ until the early hours of the morning.
Bloodstock Open Air 2011 is planned to take place at Catton Hall from Friday 12 August to Sunday 14 August 2011.
