The Saturday night of any festival is the biggest night. And considering the Friday headliner is Amon Amarth, and Sunday is the legendary Megadeth, Bloodstock simply have to deliver a huge act.
They've done it. They've booked the most unholy of bands. The incredible GHOST are the Saturday night headline act of Bloodstock. To put that into another perspective, Bloodstock is about to become the grounds of a very entertaining ritual of humanity and worship.
This will be GHOST's first "ritual" at Bloodstock, and it promises to be an enlightening experience. This is a clip from Hellfest 2016 showing you a mere glimpse of what to expect:

They've just finished their UK leg of the Popestar Tour, and we sent our man down to experience it. His review will come soon, detailing the brilliance of their live "ritual".
A Nameless Ghoul informs us “We are absolutely chuffed to finally be playing at the classic BLOODSTOCK. Over the years we have heard so many great things about it and now, to be able to headline one of the nights, is a great honour and we are very much looking forward to it. Thank you all and see you there!"
