THE FESTIVAL
The 1984 Monsters of Rock festival, held on August 18 at Donington Park in Castle Donington, England, is widely regarded as one of the most iconic single-day rock festivals. With an estimated attendance of 60,000 to 65,000 fans, the event featured a powerhouse lineup that included AC/DC, Van Halen, Ozzy Osbourne, Gary Moore, Y&T, Accept, and Mötley Crüe . AC/DC headlined the festival for the second time, promoting their album Flick of the Switch. Van Halen performed as part of their 1984 tour, marking their only UK appearance that year and the last with David Lee Roth as lead vocalist . Ozzy Osbourne showcased tracks from Bark at the Moon, while Mötley Crüe made their UK debut, delivering a high-energy set . The festival was notable not only for its stellar lineup but also for the intense crowd atmosphere, including infamous incidents of bottle-throwing and other projectiles being hurled at the stage . Despite these challenges, the 1984 Monsters of Rock remains a landmark event in rock history, celebrated for its exceptional performances and the electrifying energy of its audience.
