Last updated 3 hours ago
Iron Maiden have revealed the set times for their two-day Knebworth extravaganza, EddFest.
Taking place this coming Friday and Saturday (10th and 11th July), Iron Maiden headline the main event on the second day with The Darkness, The HU, Airbourne and The Almighty all performing earlier in the day.
Iron Maidens’ set will be filmed for an upcoming cinematic concert movie, after the band were unable to complete their Paris gig in June due to a power cut.
Artists rocking the Maidenville Stage on the Friday hosted by Planet Rock's Paul Anthony include Blaze Bayley performing an Iron Maiden set, Steve Harris’ first band Gypsy’s Kiss, Stray, Maiden United, Airforce and Tony Moore’s Awake.
Gates open at midday on Friday 10th July for weekend camping and campervan ticket holders, with the Maidenville arena starting its full programme of entertainment at 2.30pm and running through until 11pm.
Saturday camping ticket holders can arrive from 10am on 11th July, with the main EddFest arena opening at 1pm.
The Saturday night entertainment has a strict site curfew and will end at 10:30pm, with both the Eddfest arena and Maidenville closing at 11pm.
Due to these curfew conditions – which the police and licensing authorities have re-confirmed need to be adhered to – Iron Maiden will be unable to screen the England vs Norway World Cup quarter final match on-site once the band finish their set.
