I saw them play Maine Road in 92 and despite them coming on an hour late they were epic.

Sadly I've seen them at download each time and all the above comments are true. 2006 we walked off as Axel couldn't sing and 2018 was tedious,,,and we walked off lol.

Fingers crossed they only play 90mins and he sings properly!

I’ve just spent the last 4 nights sleeping in a tent whilst hiking the West Highland Way in Scotland. You have my sympathy!

Fair play ! At the least the music will be better…and the weather the same as Scotland !

Juts did a google search and this came up. Hope it helps.

“ The best way to get from Nottingham to Download Festival is the [Skylink Nottingham bus or the Skylink Express, which run frequently from Friar Lane (near Nottingham city centre/station) directly to the festival site at Donington Park. Buses run roughly every 15-30 minutes, taking around 45-60 minutes, with day tickets/returns available.

Bus Options (2025/2026 Season):

[Skylink Nottingham: Typically runs 24 hours, connects Nottingham center to the festival's DHL cargo area or nearby transport hub.

[Skylink Express: A faster, direct option often running in the mornings/daytime (roughly 30-45 mins).

[Big Green Coach: The festival's official partner offers dedicated, pre-booked return travel from Nottingham for those seeking a direct coach service.

Trentbarton

+3

Important Tips for 2026:

Stop Location: Look for buses leaving from Friar Lane or near Broad Marsh Bus Station in Nottingham.

Drop-off/Pick-up: You will likely be dropped at the DHL hub or the official transport hub near the festival entrance, requiring a short walk.

Return Journey: Buses can be very busy late at night after the headliners; be prepared for long queues or take the 24-hour skylink back.

Tickets: Use contactless payment or check the trentbarton website for day returns.”
