Bloodstock Open Air attendees are set to have an explosive time at the festival this year, with the news that both Dimmu Borgir and Nightwish will have full pyrotechnic headline sets. Neither band has performed a full pyrotechnic set in the UK before. Other bands set to play the festival include Opeth, At The Gates, Helloween, Iced Earth, Soilwork, Napalm Death and As I Lay Dying.

BOA runs from August 15-17 and both weekend and day tickets are still available.
