Are you ready for it? UK’s biggest independent music festival, Slam Dunk, is back after and better than ever. This year, the festival has managed to pull out all the stops to give the festival-goers one hell of a weekend. The festival takes place in Hatfield and Leeds, with Hatfield on May 24th and Leeds on May 25th; the tickets are already on sale. See you there?
By popular demand, A Day To Remember is making their much-awaited Slam Dunk debut this year, and joining them, Electric Callboy is ready to get the crowd going with their energetic set. Slam Dunk royalty Neck Deep is back to give us some sing-alongs with their set.
Slam Dunk will be packed with iconic acts, and taking a trip down memory lane. Alkaline Trio will be performing and playing loads of good stuff. Meanwhile, ska-punk legends Less Than Jake, Streetlight Manifesto, and Save Ferris will deliver catchy sets filled with the classics. Ska fans can also rejoice, as The Starting Line, The Artis, The Aquabats, and Zebrahead will be joining the party.
Pop-punkers Knuckle Puck is joining in on the fun, ready to celebrate ten years of ‘Copacetic’, while As It Is marks the 10th anniversary of ‘Never Happy, Ever After’ with an exclusive UK reunion! New Found Glory are also marking two decades of their album ‘Catalyst’, what fun!
Meanwhile, Hot Mulligan, Free Throw, and Movements are ready to get us going with infectious riffs and heart-the-sleeve lyrics; what’s not to like?
As always, Slam Dunk has been good at shining light on the newer wave of alternative talent, and Dream State, Graphic Nature, Mouth Culture, Sweet Pill, Rain City Drive, and Cemetery Sun, to name a few, are here to show us why they are some of the hottest up and coming acts out there right now. You can see the full line-up below.
