This weekend, after various COVID-related delays, Slam Dunk Festival finally returned and it was glorious. Taking over Leeds and Hatfield, the alternative all-dayer brought a bucketload of punk and metal's hottest bands to the stage.

For both bands and fans alike, it was their first taste of live music in 18 months. Headlined by Don Broco, Slam Dunk also saw the likes of Alkaline Trio, Loathe and Creeper remind the thousands in attendance just how important and powerful live music is.

Here are just some of the lovely bunch who turned out for Slam Dunk in Hatfield. Can you spot yourself?
