Weather forecast for Download Festival 2009 at Donington Park

The weather for Download Festival is looking very favourable and there’s only a slight risk of rain and plenty of dry warmish weather.  As ever, please remember to pack sunscreen and possibly a hat to keep covered up – nowt worse than a sore sunburnt hungover head!

Here’s our weather forecast for Download 2009:

Friday 12th June: Bright start with temperatures between 15 and 17.  Clouding over later on, making it a cool night so wrap up warm in those tents.

Saturday 13th June: A fair bit of cloud to start the day with, although temperatures should be slightly warmer than the previous day at around 18.  The sun will be poking through at various times of the day, so please make sure you’ve got hats, sunscreen etc.

Sunday 14th June: Glorious start to the final day of Download and a great chance to top up your festival tan.  Plenty of sunshine throughout the day, with just a slight breeze to cool things down.  Temps could go as high as 20 today, so please slap up and keep that hat on.

Download Festival takes place at Donington Park in Leicestershire from June 12th to June 14th.  The lineup for Download includes Faith No More, Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Def Leppard, Korn, ZZ Top, Limp Bizkit and many more.
