The Darkness will be performing at Download Fesrival

The multi-award winning Brit-rockers from East Anglia is a Darkness have reunited after a five year gap and will be confirmed to performing at the Download Festival in Castle Donington on Friday 10 June.

Download Festival headline Justin Hawkins, Dan Hawkins, Ed Graham and Frankie Poullain. The Darkness will appear as special guests on the opening night of the Download Festival.

Famed for their incredible live shows and whose hits include ‘I Believe In A Thing Called Love', ‘Growing On Me', ‘Christmas Time (Don't Let The Bells End)' and ‘One Way Ticket' .

Frontman Justin Hawkins said: "The idea of playing Download terrifies us. We played in an early slot on the main stage in 2003 and we were frightened then. It's reassuring to know that nothing has changed! On a serious note it's the most rockest of festivals and the perfect place for us to begin the next phase of our journey."

Def Leppard's Joe Elliott added: "About f**king time boys! I am over the moon they have reformed and really pleased they are playing with us at Download. It has the makings of a top night!"
