The 2024 edition saw performances from the likes of You Me At Six, All-American Rejects, I Prevail and more. The Leeds edition also made headlines after an emergency weather update was shared following heavy rainfall at the Temple Newsam site.
In January, it was confirmed that Slam Dunk would host You Me At Six s final festival performance after the band announced plans to break up following a farewell tour next year.
Speaking to NME at the time, frontman Josh Franceschi recalled: Ben Ray, who books Slam Dunk, was our first ever manager and gave us our first show in a proper venue at The Cockpit in Leeds. When we got there, we just bombarded him, let us open [the festival]. No one knew who we were. But he believed in us, and he gave us that chance.
I think it s a really poetic ending to our great relationship. How big that festival has become is a testament to him and his team, but also to this alternative scene that we have in England, he continued. When other festivals have maybe dipped in and out of guitar music, Slam Dunk hasn t. It s a great honour to go and play there.
