Previously known as Stonedeaf Festival, the one day, one stage rock music extravaganza returns to Newark Showground in Nottinghamshire on Saturday 29th August 2020.

Fresh from wrapping up their storming October tour in Manchester tonight (27th October), the mighty Black Star Riders will headline the Tommy Vance stage at Stonedead next summer.

Also confirmed on the line-up tonight are New York AOR melodic hard rock icons Tyketto, blues rock powerhouses Kris Barras Band, and Blaze Bayley, who will be bringing a UK summer exclusive of his Iron Maiden years.

Completing the first blockbuster line-up announcement are NWOBHM trailblazers Tygers of Pan Tang and the truly exception Myke Gray featuring Kim Jennett.

With the special guests and the Opening Poll competition winners still to be announced, Stonedead Festival is shaping up to be another classic year.

As if the phenomenal line-up wasn’t enough to tempt you, Krusher Joule will host once again and the free signing tent brought to you in conjunction with Planet Rock will also be returning.

The event will have a dedicated covered wellbeing area with seating and sun cream, and organisers allow alcohol to be brought into the arena - 4 cans of ready mixed spirits or beer / cider.

New for 2020 is that all children under 4 are free entry.
