Bloodstock Festival
Bloodstock is the UKs premier metal fest. Started by Paul Gregory and Vince Brotheridge in 2001, it has gone from a small cult festival to a sold out internationally respected event.
It is held every September at the Assembly Rooms in Derby.
The festival can be held responsible for helping many European and British bands gain recognition, and in increasing the popularity of power metal in the UK.
Line Ups
Many well known European bands have made their UK debut on the Bloodstock stage.

Bloodstock Open Air
In June 2005 Bloodstock held it's first open air event. Not a great success, but metal kareoke and an excellent atmosphere meant that everyone enjoyed it, and it looks set to grow into a true fixture on the European summer festival circuit, as the UK's answer to Wacken.
