KREATOR ANNOUNCED AS REPLACEMENT SATURDAY NIGHT HEADLINER FOR BLOODSTOCK 2021

Kings of Heavy, Kreator have been announced as a replacement Saturday night headliner at Bloodstock this year, replacing Mercyful Fate who have had to postpone their headlining slot until 2022. The festival will take place at Catton Park in Derbyshire from the 11th – 15th August.

Mercyful Fate’s iconic frontman, King Diamond tells us;

“Due to the uncertainties of international touring logistics, health, and safety issues, Mercyful Fate are unable to perform at this Summer’s Bloodstock.  Unfortunately, most of our Summer routing is already postponed or postponing soon. Like many others in our position we’re amending our plans to get back on the road as soon as possible.  We’re gutted.  However, we are happy to say that we’ve worked with the Bloodstock organisers and report that we will be back to headline the festival in Summer ‘22.  Until then, stay heavy and stay safe.”

Bloodstock is a UK festival exclusive for Kreator and frontman Mille Petrozza tells us;

“We are very excited to headline the Bloodstock festival for the first time!. This means a lot to Kreator since all the previous shows we have played there were exceptional!  We promise you the most brutal show Bloodstock has ever seen! Be prepared!”.

Kreator join already confirmed Bloodstock headliners Judas Priest, who will headline Sunday night, and Friday night headliner Devin Townshend. Other acts confirmed to play Catton Park this August include Saxon, Liberty Lies, GloryHammer, Diamond Head and Skindred. The full line up can be viewed below.
