AMPLIFIED FESTIVAL 2019 HEADLINER AND EXCLUSIVE CONFIRMED ACTS ANNOUNCEMENT
14th December 2018“So as a rather exciting year in the world of rock and metal comes to a close Amplified would like to say ‘thank you’ to everyone for all their continuing support.
It’s been one hell of a journey for bands past and present with many achieving great success. Whether getting signed or producing DIY chart entering albums, completing sell out UK tours, getting playlisted on numerous radio stations or just entertaining 10’s of thousands of people at venues across the UK, Europe, America and beyond…it’s been YOUR year!
Our own current Online Video Vote for a chance to join those already confirmed acts at Amplified 2019 is gathering pace and clearly illustrates the immense talent that currently exists out there… So again, massive congratulations to all of you for continuing to follow your dreams with a passion that can be all consuming, but ever so enjoyable at the same time!
With a line up that already includes the likes of JINJER, MUSHROOMHEAD, FLOTSAM AND JETSAM, MEMORIAM and CONAN along with old friends UNZUCHT, SULPHER and THE AMORETTES we think its time we ‘unwrap’ and announce some gifts for you this Christmas…
Joining us here at Amplified in 2019 are:
Europe’s biggest crossover band RISE OF THE NORTHSTAR from France bringing their ‘The Legacy Of Shi’ to the UK for the first time as a UK Festival Exclusive appearing on the Red Stripe Main Stage Saturday 20th July.

Providing a whole lot of shaking will be Cheltenham’s very own SYREN ALTERNATIVE BELLY DANCERS back here for a third year to perform wherever the mood takes them.
And one of the South West’s best student alternative club night DJ crews APOCALYPSE will be here providing tunes throughout the day and late into the night after the bands have finished to continue the party.
Alongside all this we’re also pleased to announce that Adam Westgate, a regular stage presence at many alternative events will be here as our compère introducing the bands across all 3 stages so expect to see a ‘blonde streak’ rushing by as he goes from stage to stage…plus still many more acts for all ages to be announced!
