"Join us for our world-record attempt for the 'most people made up as KISS' — taking place at Download on Friday, where KISS will rock the Festival! Only you can help make it happen...We have joined forces with FACE, the official body of face-painters who are providing at least of 20 professional face-painters in order to achieve our goal! We hope to be able to set a record for over 400 faces painted within three hours.
Face painting by our accredited painters is FREE; please don't do your own make-up. Remember - in order to break the record, we can only accept faces painted by FACE members. Expert facepaint-makers Mehron are very kindly sponsoring the attempt by providing all the necessary paint...
The attempt will take place on Friday, June 13 with face-painting starting at 13:00 and finishing at 16:00. The face painters stations will be based in and on the edge of 'Kidney Wood' which is the kidney-shaped green area close to the day ticket entrance in the Main Arena.
The stations will be split into four sections concentrating on each of the faces - The Demon, Star Child, The Cat and The Spaceman.
Once you've had your face painted, you'll given details of where to congregate to be part of our mass KISS award-winning photograph!"
