Coke Fest Becomes Coca-Cola Zero Festival for 2009

After the success of last year's Coke Fest, for 2009 the event has been re-named to the Coca-Cola Zero Fest and promises more great world-class live performances

Believe it! Coca-Cola Zero is bringing an unprecedented international and local line-up of the hottest rock bands, with 12 hours of rocking music and unbelievable experiences, making it the most adrenalin-fuelled festival in South Africa: Coca-Cola Zero Fest in association with 5FM.

South Africa, standby for British Rock Royalty and possibly the world's top headline live act – Oasis.

Oasis will be supported by Snow Patrol who got the global spotlight with their 2006 album "Eyes Open", which features the hit "Chasing Cars".

Also featured will be the Grammy-nominated, multiple MTV Award winning American rock band Panic At The Disco.

And introducing, the band that Q Magazine dubbed "The best British metal band to emerge in years", the Welsh metal-core band Bullet For My Valentine who spent most of the past two years taking over the world with massive UK, European, US and worldwide tours, sharing the stage with Guns n Roses, Metallica and Iron Maiden, playing the main stage at just about every rock festival on the planet!

The 2009 Coca-Cola Zero Fest will also feature local favourites like Zebra and Giraffe, The Dirty Skirts, and more.
