Download festival has released a list of banned items that festival fans will not be allowed to bring into the venue. While some of the items are understandable, there are some that are a little bit more unusual.
The festival is set to take place at Donnington Castle on Friday, June 10 and Saturday, June 12. This year's lineup includes Iron Maiden, Deftones and Biffy Clyro. This is the first proper Download festival to go ahead after Covid restrictions forced cancellations and reduced ticket sales. Thousands of metal fans attend the event each year.
In order to keep attendees safe, the security team will conduct bag searches, body checks and there will also be 'detection dogs' on site. Those carrying anything on the list will either have the item confiscated, be refused entry or if the item is illegal, the police may be called.
