• 30th Apr 2021

Slam Dunk Festival will welcome fast-rising pop-rock trio Waterparks to the indisputably incredible lineup set to come alive on Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th September at Leeds and Hatfield. Guaranteed to be one of the biggest weekends of the long-awaited summer, mighty headliners Sum 41 and Don Broco will be joined by punk icons, hardcore trailblazers, emo alchemists and rock transformers from all over the world including NOFX, While She Sleeps, Mayday Parade, We Are The In Crowd, Four Year Strong, A, Static Dress, Wargasm, to name a few! 

With Waterparks hotly-anticipated fourth album Greatest Hits almost within touching distance, Slam Dunk Festival have teamed up with both Waterparks and Leeds record store, Crash Records, to give SDF2021 ticket holders an unforgettable experience at this year’s festival. Ticket holders who pre-order Greatest Hits from Crash Records – using the links provided below – will get exclusive access to an intimate acoustic session with waterparks at the festival where they will also get to meet Awsten, Otto and Geoff in person AND have the moment captured by a professional photographer.

Awsten, Otto and Geoff’s main stage performance at Slam Dunk Festival 2019 went down as one of the most unforgettable sets of the weekend, and the band have been on the up ever since. Garnering a cult following for their animated musical stylings, the Houston trio’s 2019 album Fandom elevated them to new heights when it landed at #2 on the Billboard Top Alternative Albums Chart, granting their first Top 40 debut on Billboard Top 200. Amassing 200 million cumulative streams to date, Waterparks are a force to be reckoned with in 2021; their latest singles ‘You’d Be Paranoid (If Everyone Was Out To Get You)’, ‘Numb’ and ‘Snow Globe’ sees the band weave between rock, alternative and electronic pop as they go. Their performance at Slam Dunk Festival 2021 will be unmissable. 

Determined to deliver the ultimate alternative celebration in 2021, Slam Dunk Festival will take place at both Temple Newsam in Leeds and Hatfield Park in Hatfield this September. Be sure to mark your calendars, the new dates are Slam Dunk North – Saturday 4th September and Slam Dunk South – Sunday 5th September.
