Kilimanjaro Live and The O2 recently announced the return of the Stone Free Festival, which will be happening on Saturday, June 16th and Sunday, June 17th at The O2, London. Now in its third year, Stone Free Festival has become a firm fixture on the live calendar and next year’s exciting event is set to be the biggest and best yet.

Headlining the arena on the Saturday night in a UK live exclusive for 2018 are the Scorpions, who have to date sold more than 100 million records worldwide over the course of their 50-year career and have not played in London since 2007. Joining them will be thrash titans Megadeth, led by Dave Mustaine, who will also be playing their only UK show of 2018 as part of Stone Free Festival.

Check out a video message from the Scorpions below:

Headlining the Sunday night will be prog-rock royalty YES featuring Jon Anderson, Trevor Rabin, Rick Wakeman. This definitive YES line up first reunited for a tour in 2016 to rave reviews and has since performed sold-out shows across North America, the UK and Europe, Japan and Israel. This will also be a UK live exclusive performance for 2018.

The fourth legend to join the bill is former Supertramp frontman Roger Hodgson, composer and singer of many of the band’s biggest hits including "Dreamer", "It’s Raining Again", "Breakfast In America" and "The Logical Song", among many others. Also playing on Sunday will be UK’s number one star of the blues rock world, Joanne Shaw Taylor who has released critically acclaimed albums and gained a global fan base.

These five artists are just the first names to be announced, with a whole host of further musical greats and upcoming artists to be revealed over the coming months.
