The event is part of a test to see how Covid-19 transmission works in large crowds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fans will attend the full three days of the festival, from 18th June &#8211; 20th June, with no social distancing or face coverings.

In Liverpool, test events, including two large nightclub events and a gig from Blossoms, went off with apparent success. There has since been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-england-merseyside-57249289\">no detectable spread of the virus<\/a> as a result of the events. If this test festival suggests such events won&#8217;t contribute to another spike in Covid-19 cases, the festival calendar in the UK this year could look a little less depressing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Headliners for the Download festival pilot include Enter Shikari and Frank Carter &amp; The Rattlesnakes. With over 40 other bands performing at a cloudy but fairly warm Donnington Park, this weekend could be set to be a British festival classic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re missing festivals, or have one lined up this year you hope to document, check out <a href=\"https:\/\/licensing.routenote.com\/\">RouteNote Licensing<\/a>!
