The impressive new announcement sees the already confirmed NOFX and Bad Religion joined by Less Than Jake, Lagwagon, Millencolin, The Interrupters, Mad Caddies, Anti-Flag and The Bombpops.

The festival will this year be held at Temple Newsam Park in Leeds on Saturday 25 May, and Hatfield Park on Sunday 26 May. Tickets are available now here.

NOFX, New Found Glory, Waterparks, Story Of The Year, Mad Caddies, Silverstein & Gallows (!) will be joining headliners All Time Low on the 25th & 26th May 2019.

After the huge success of Slam Dunk’s move to Hatfield House last year, the festival has also announced plans for a new site for Slam Dunk North, moving to Leeds’ Temple Newsam Estate. Sadly this means no more Slam Dunk Midlands (you will be missed) but  bigger sites mean even more pop-punk fanatics can make their way to the definitive date of the alternative diary.

Tickets are on sale Friday 19th October at 9am fromhttp://slamdunkfestival.com/ 

Ticket Price £59. All subject to booking fees.

The show will showcase artwork from the band’s upcoming new album, ‘American Fall’, designed by Doug Dean and Noah Scalin. As well as this, the band will reveal the record in full and will play an intimate acoustic set. Be warned, get there early as space is limited!

The new record will be released on the 3rd November via Spinefarm Records.

The band will also be playing the following UK shows with Reel Big Fish, Mad Caddies and Sweet Little Machine.
