Slam Dunk Festival announces its European festival dates for 2026, confirming shows in Germany and Italy as part of this summer’s return to the continent, with Knocked Loose set to top the bill at the two mainland Europe dates, hot off the release of their latest single ft. Denzel Curry. Fresh from being revealed for a huge back-to-back main stage weekend at Slam Dunk Festival at Hatfield Park (23 May) and Temple Newsam (24 May) - the only place to catch them in the UK this summer, Knocked Loose will carry the momentum, headlining both dates in Europe.
With two decades at the forefront of the alt scene, Slam Dunk continues to evolve, building a reputation as one of Europe’s must-attend series of summer shows. The 2026 European leg will follow the two UK festival dates, before heading over to Europe at the end of May.
New for 2026, Slam Dunk makes its debut in Germany on Friday 29 May, at Turbinenhalle 1&2 in Oberhausen. Leading the charge are Knocked Loose, with the line-up also featuring Paleface Swiss, Stand Atlantic, Hawthorne Heights, Static Dress, Holywatr and Sweet Pill. The festival then lands in Milan on Monday 1 June 2026, where Slam Dunk Italy takes place at Circolo Magnolia. Closing out this summer’s shows are Knocked Loose, Paleface Swiss, Gorilla Biscuits, Stand Atlantic, Hawthorne Heights, Static Dress, Holywatr and Sweet Pill.
Since launching in 2006, Slam Dunk Festival has grown from a one-day event into the UK’s biggest independent rock festival, hosting everyone from genre-defining legends and internationally renowned rock icons to the most exciting breakthrough artists from across the globe. With its 20th anniversary set to take place this May, there’s no better way to round off the celebration than with a run of huge, not-to-be-missed European shows.
