Festival founder & Director, Ben Ray, says “2016 marks the 10th Anniversary of the first SLAM DUNK FESTIVAL. I had no idea back then what I thought would be a one off event would still be going now, let alone continued to grow to the size it has become. Because of the anniversary, it was important for this year to be special, In celebration of the 10th Anniversary, the remaining line-up will contain many bands that have played over This year’s headliners are the phenomenal Panic! At The Disco. It will actually be the band's first time at which I feel is reflected with both the line up and the new Midlands venue.”
