Bloodstock main stage in 2026
Bloodstock has announced another 18 bands for its 2027 line-up, with Make Them Suffer, Carnifex, The Acacia Strain, DVNE and Calva Louise among the latest names heading to Catton Park next August.
The new announcement adds four bands to the Ronnie James Dio stage and another 14 across the Sophie Lancaster stage, filling out all four days of the festival.
Ronnie James Dio stage
Progressive post-metal band DVNE have been added to Friday's Ronnie James Dio stage.
Saturday will see Australian metalcore band Make Them Suffer join the bill alongside Scottish metal veterans Dog Tired, while Carnifex have been confirmed for Sunday.
Sophie Lancaster stage
The Sophie Lancaster stage gets the bulk of today's additions, beginning on Thursday with London desert rock band Steak, Leeds sci-fi thrash outfit Cryptic Shift and genre-blurring London trio Calva Louise.
Friday adds Divine Chaos, UK hardcore band False Reality and Northern Irish thrash veterans Gama Bomb.
Five more bands have been announced for Saturday. Brighton trio Eville, Ukrainian metalcore band Space of Variations and Finland's Luna Kills will all appear, alongside Spitting Glass and Atlanta deathcore outfit Left To Suffer.
Spitting Glass arrive at Bloodstock after a rapid rise which has already included a sold-out show at London's Underworld and an appearance in the Dogtooth tent at Download Festival.
Sunday's additions are completed by Cypriot thrash and death metal band Blynd, Norwegian black and Viking metal outfit Uburen, and US heavyweights The Acacia Strain.
