Slam Dunk Festival 2018 adds Twin Atlantic and 10 more acts

Already boasting a jaw-droppingly brilliant line-up, the Slam Dunk Festival 2018 bill just got even better!

Heading to Leeds, Hatfield and Birmingham this coming May Bank Holiday weekend are Twin Atlantic, The Skints, Zebrahead, Set Your Goals, Northlane, Comeback Kid, Counterparts, Capdown, Save Ferris, Broadside and Can’t Swim.

Andrew Neufield of Comeback Kid enthuses: "Pretty ecstatic to get back to Slam Dunk fest for our 2nd time. We played a couple years ago and ran quite the muck. We'll be ramping it up this year for sure!"

Waxing lyrical, Brendan Murphy of Counterparts says: "After years we're finally gonna dunk the biggest basketball net in the UK. I already know the set is gonna be sick, I don't even have to bug you guys about it. Let's go!"

Also chomping at the bit to play the three-date rock institution, Chris LoPorto of Can’t Swim adds: “In the short time of doing this band, we’ve made some great friends through touring. Playing with a few of them at a festival like this is pretty special.

“It’s one thing to have the opportunity to play your music in front of a bunch of people, but also getting to see old friends on a catering line in another country is the best. Festivals like this bring a lot of people together, in more ways than one. We’re very excited to be a part of it.”

Co-headlined by Good Charlotte and Jimmy Eat World, Slam Dunk Festival 2018 will also feature performances from PVRIS, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, Taking Back Sunday, Creeper, Thursday, Every Time I Die, Four Year Strong, Knuckle Puck, Crown The Empire, Real Friends and many more.

Slam Dunk Festival 2018 once again takes place at Leeds City Centre (Saturday 26th May), Hatfield Park (Sunday 27th May) and Birmingham NEC (Monday 28th May).
