The UK’s biggest rock and metal festival returned to its full glory with its first full-scale event three years after the pandemic following the historic pilot event last year. It was a surreal and joyful feeling to be back at Donnington for festival goers and bands alike and was the sentiment of the weekend. We have all waited so long for live music to return, and it was worth the wait. The variety and calibre of music, the atmosphere and unusually stunning sunny weather made this anticipated return even better.
CELLAR DARLING are pleased to announce a UK tour this autumn. After a 3-year wait, October 2022 will see the return of the Swiss progressive rock trio to our shores, for an impressive week-long run.
CELLAR DARLING stated, “We are pleased to announce that this October, we are finally returning to the UK! We cannot wait to see you this autumn. Anna, Ivo & Merlin”
