Who better to announce on Halloween than Rob Zombie who has been confirmed for next summer's Bloodstock Open Air.

Sunday’s 2015 main stage headliner, said, "I am so ready to get on a plane, and get my ass over to merry ol' England for Bloodstock. We've had some of the best shows of our lives over there and can't wait to add this to the list. Besides, it's called ‘Bloodstock' so how could it not be bloody fucking fun?”

Bloodstock Open Air festival will take place from Thursday 6th until Sunday 9th August 2015 at Catton Hall, Walton-on-Trent, in South Derbyshire. The aim is to offer a traditional metal event comparable to those regularly seen in Europe and capture the spirit of the original Monsters Of Rock shows which used to take place at Castle Donington during the 1980's and 1990's.

The first acts confirmed are Saturday night headliners Within Temptation and their support Opeth. Ihsahn and Cannibal Corpse will both be UK exclusives, with Sepultura, Death DTA, Nuclear Assault, and Dark Angel, also confirmed for Catton Park.

As well as the international heavy metal bands across four stages, Bloodstock will offer a large selection of merchandise stalls, metal karaoke, a campsite and a wide selection of food and bars.
