Just a few more hours separate us from a grand return of Simple Plan to the old continent, where they haven’t appeared since the summer of 2017. The members of the band will be catching their planes either tonight or tomorrow, as they are scheduled to perform at both dates of the Slam Dunk Festival<\/b> in the United Kingdom this weekend – in Leeds on Saturday and in Hatfield on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Besides Simple Plan, fans will be able to catch multiple other interesting bands including All Time Low, New Found Glory, Neck Deep, Waterparks, Plain White T’s, NOFX, Bullet For My Valentine, Bad Religion and many more. <\/p>\n

As of right now, Simple Plan’s gear is already making its way to the festival ahead of the band, in order for everything to be ready when SP get to Leeds on Saturday, where Slam Dunk officially kicks off.<\/p>\n

What can we expect from Slam Dunk Festival?<\/div>\n

Before their show even starts at both days of the festival, the fans will be able to meet and get their hands on an autograph from Simple Plan from 2:10pm at the Amazon Music signing tent<\/b> (be careful – there’s three signing tents at the festival, so if you’re there, make sure you’re standing at the right one). The signing will last 45 minutes. Check out more info about the singing below:<\/p>\n

Finally, Simple Plan will jump on the Monster Stage right after Waterparks at 4:35pm and perform a 55-minute set<\/b>. Many of you have surely been wondering about the setlist and whether the band might perform any new tracks. Since it looks like there wasn’t any rehearsal for the band prior to these shows, it’s rather unlikely this will happen, but never say never, eh? One thing is to be sure: we can expect another fantastic SP show. <\/p>\n

As far as David, we’re almost certain he will not be joining the band for these two European shows and it’s very likely that Chady Awad will be taking over some of his parts on the stage during the SP show<\/b>. <\/p>\n

Finally, SimplePlan.cz will be present at Slam Dunk South – in Hatfield<\/b> and we also have some spies over at Slam Dunk North, so make sure to follow us on social media<\/b> (Facebook<\/a> | Twitter<\/a> | Instagram<\/a>) over this weekend, we’ll be trying to update you as much as possible! Also, we’re ready to hand out some SP.cz pins so don’t hesitate to ask if you run into us :) See you at the show! <\/p>\n
