Slam Dunk Festival are determined for us to fall even harder for them with an exciting giveaway this Valentine’s Day.
The much-loved music festival showcasing some of the world’s best rock, metal, pop-punk and more, hosted over at Temple Newsam Park, is back for 2025 and with a lineup as good as any past edition, the clamour for tickets is understandably crazy.
Slam Dunk sells out with ease every year, meaning those who love a mosh often miss out on tickets. Fortunately, because they love their three UK bases so much, they’re giving gig-goers in Yorkshire and beyond an extra opportunity to be there this year.
Teaming up with a trio of music shops, one of those being Crash Records here in Leeds city centre, fans have the chance to give themselves the best gift of all this Valentine’s: an unforgettable weekend featuring some of the best live acts in the genre.
Love is in the air and we’re cooking up a treat for you…

Spreading love with this special one-day scavenger hunt, tickets for this year’s festival will be hidden at record stores like Crash in Leeds, as well as London and St Albans.
All Ages and Empire Records will be joining our local institution in hiding away a select few sets of free tickets to Slam Dunk 2025, but the fun doesn’t stop there.
Even those who miss out on weekend passes could stumble across other goodies including merch vouchers and a special 25 years of The Used double vinyl – one of many exciting names playing the outdoor festival this year.
The Slam Dunk ’25 line-up includes other massive names like A Day To Remember, Neck Deep, Electric Callboy, The Used, New Found Glory, Less Than Jake, Mouth Culture, Hot Milk, Hot Mulligan and lots more.
Remaining the UK’s biggest independent rock festival, Slam Dunk really is a must-attend on the British live music circuit.
And, you know, it goes without saying that you should pick the North over the South every single time.
Thankfully, for now, there are still tickets left even if you don’t manage to land a freebie, but we’d act quickly if you want to be there. You grab yours HERE.
Taking place at Leeds Temple Newsam on 25 May 2025, we cannot wait to relive the scenes from last year. Run it back:
