Classic Album Sundays in partnership with Jägermeister will be hosting CAS sessions featuring some of your favourite heavy metal, thrash, prog and classic rock albums at Sonisphere. Between 10am – 4pm on the Saturday and Sunday, festival goers will be able to experience albums from all three of this year’s headliners, plus other legendary albums by bands from the rich 40 year history of Knebworth.
Each session will feature the story behind the album presented by an artist or journalist followed by an immersive and uninterrupted vinyl playback of the album on our exquisite £650K Audio Note all-analog hi-fi sound system. You will experience the album like never before.
