After a day of music and mayhem, the truly dedicated are welcome to join the official aftershow celebrations. The METAL HAMMER OZZFEST MELTDOWN will take place at the Indigo2, from 10.30pm – 2am. DJS from METAL HAMMER will be blasting out hard rocking anthems to keep the post-fest party going, with KARAOKE for the budding performers amongst the crowd. What’s more, the party doesn’t have to end at the o2! There will be free Thames Clipper boats sailing to central London from the O2 after the party ends for all those who attend the aftershow with full bar. The boats will board between 1.45am and 2.15am and will call at London Bridge and Waterloo.  and more loud rock being pumped out until they dock in central London

The 2010 package will be the first UK OZZFEST show in over five years, and is also the first time the O2 features a general admission format on the lower bowl; GA ticket holders will be able to choose between watching the show from seats, or the specially enlarged standing area. Top level tickets will also be available offering the usual seating.

Flying in from Bakerfield, USA, the multi-million selling, Grammy Award-winning KORN will be showcasing new material from their forthcoming new album, “Korn III – Remember Who You Are”, whose first single ‘Oildale (Remember Who You Are)’ is out today.

“We’re extremely excited to be playing Ozzfest in Europe” comments guitarist MUNKY.  “Ozzy is an absolute legend, mentor, and dear friend of mine, so it’s always an honour to perform on the same bill as him.  We can’t wait!”

OZZFEST will also offer the opportunity for UK fans to give MURDERDOLLS a hearty welcome back from the dead after a six year absence. JOEY JORDISON and WEDNESDAY 13 return with “Women and Children Last” at the end of August, and their set at OZZFEST will see the horror-rockers airing brand new material for the first time since their 2002 debut.

“Its been sometime since the OzzFest has reached these UK shores, Skindred are highly honoured and excited to be joining the legend that is Ozzy Osbourne and taking part in this monstrous event. The Metal public know this one’s gonna rock harder dan all da res…”
