A number of new acts have been added to the line-up for Download 2013 - including Queens Of The Stone Age, 30 Seconds To Mars, Motorhead, HIM and more.

Also added to the bill are Alice In Chains, A Day To Remember and The Gaslight Anthem, all of whom will perform at the 2013 event, which takes place on 14-16 June at Donnington Park, Leicestershire.

The seven new acts join headliners Rammstein, Slipknot and Iron Maiden at one of the UK's last-standing summer rock events.

Kiss are expected to headline the second stage at next year's Download Festival on the Friday night.

Heavy rock website, Metal Talk, claims that the event at Donington Park next June will see Gene Simmons and co take to the festival's second stage on the opening night.

The article states: "Kiss are understood to be headlining the second stage at Download Festival on the Friday June 14th."


Iron Maiden will headline Download 2013

Iron Maiden were the first band to be confirmed for Download 2013, and revealed they were 'over the moon' at being booked for next year's event.

Speaking about his band returning to Donnington to headline, Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson said in September of this year: "We're absolutely over the moon to be headlining Donington again. The idea of returning exactly 25 years later with a show inspired by that same 1988 Seventh Son Tour was too good an opportunity to be missed."
