Slam Dunk Festival France announces first bands

The first bands for the first ever Slam Dunk Festival France have been announced!

Having firmly established itself as the UK’s best independent alternative festival for pop-punk and rock revellers, the festival have announced it will be coming to Europe for the very first time, taking over two venues in Paris, France on Saturday May 30th this year.

Returning to an inner-city format, Slam Dunk Festival France will take place at La Boule Noir and La Cigale following the UK dates this year. The two adjacent venues are set to welcome 10 artists; five of which have been announced today.

Making their festival debut in May, emo titans THE USED will cross the channel with beatdown legends FOUR YEAR STRONG and alt-rockers GRAYSCALE to join French post-hardcore troupe CHUNK! NO CAPTAIN CHUNK! and melodic metallers LANDMVRKS on their home turf. The festival will complete the inaugural line-up at a later date.

Slam Dunk Festival France will take place at La Boule Noir and La Cigale (adjacent venues) on Saturday May 30th 2020. Tickets go on sale on Thursday January 24th and can be purchased here.
