 FROM SEPULTURA: 

 “Beyond the Dream” arrives as the second single from our upcoming EP "The Cloud of Unknowing", standing out as one of the most emblematic moments of Sepultura’s final chapter. It serves as a poetic reflection on a journey shaped by decades of albums, tours, and life on the road.
This previously unreleased composition fulfills a long-standing desire of the band to explore the ballad format, blending Sepultura’s identity with the melodic sensitivity of renowned collaborators. To bring this project to life, Sepultura enlisted the essential collaboration of Sérgio Britto and Tony Bellotto of Titãs - musicians who share a long history with the band and are widely recognized as specialists in the genre, as well as composers of classics such as “Polícia. 
The result of a direct partnership between members of Sepultura and Titãs, the song celebrates the connection between artists who share the stage and a deep passion for creation. The outcome is a piece that brings great satisfaction to everyone involved, establishing itself as both an emotional and historical milestone featured on the band’s final EP, released in this very year that marks Sepultura’s official farewell.

FROM IRON MAIDEN: 

 

We’re excited to announce that Blaze Bayley will headline the Maidenville stage on Friday night at EddFest this summer!
Blaze: “I’m so excited to be invited to headline Friday night at EddFest, celebrating 50 years of Iron Maiden, I am so proud of my two albums with the band and I’m really looking forward to playing some of the songs that we recorded together. Can’t wait to see you all at the hallowed grounds of Knebworth!”
Steve has also invited Gypsy’s Kiss, the band he formed in 1974 with singer and guitarist, David Smith, to perform on the Maidenville stage on Friday. As the very first band Steve ever played with they were an instrumental part of Steve’s journey to form Iron Maiden a year later.
Steve: “Having the opportunity to put together our very own festival at Knebworth, and celebrate 50 years of Iron Maiden, has given me a chance to bring together friends past and present and create a really special weekend for the fans.
I’m very pleased that Blaze is able to join us and perform some of the songs we wrote and recorded in the 90s. He has been a big part of Iron Maiden’s career, and I know the fans will be really excited to see him on stage at EddFest. It’s also great to have Gypsy’s Kiss playing with us at Knebworth too. They were a big part of my musical heritage and it’s really exciting to have them play at the Maidenville stage.”
Camping ticket holders for the only UK headline show in 2026 will be able to access the EddFest site on the Friday night, the day before regular ticket holders. This includes access to the Infinite Dreams Experience, Eddie’s Ultimate Dive Bar, the Unfair Funfair and of course, the Friday night entertainment.
