The Download 2022 band clashes that could affect you with more than 100 artists to choose from

So are you one of those fans who meticulously checks when their favourite bands are playing and keeps a list so they can get around them all? Or are you one of those people who just camp out in front of one of the four stages at the Download festival and just listen to whoever appears?

There are people who fall into both these categories. But there is a third, comprising of the people who continually move around blindly and listen for a few minutes before moving on again? If you are either of the latter categories then it will not bother you if the band appearances clash - for some people there is nothing worse.

Of course it is inevitable, with four stages all kicking off at roughly the same time and with around 100 bands playing over the three days at Donington Park this weekend from Friday, June 10, through to the end of Sunday, June 12. Differing musical styles and genres will dictate what bands you choose and the organisers are careful not to have too many clashes they know will upset fans.
