Slam Dunk 23 sounded like a mess in general, I live 10 mins drive away from Temple Newsam and I was still put off from going this year due to the logistics of taxis, food and pick up last time, plus the obviously high ticket price.

Usually I think people hyperbolise about bad experiences at festivals, but I can safely say it was a complete shambles. Leeds fared better than the south from what I’ve heard, but only marginally.

It’s not a great sign when you’ve got people queuing for 5+ hours to get into the car park for a single day festival.

Worst experience I’ve had was Leeds Fest 2019 when it was 30°C+ all weekend and they ran out of free water at the pumps plus water/soft drinks at the bar. Feeling dehydrated? No problem, here’s a warm Carlsberg. £7 please!

Unfortunately we are talking about the worst run festival in the country.

Slam Dunk Leeds was a bit of a hodgepodge this year, but made the long trudge out east instead and got my ride there. Ended up being an inspired call, given the circumstances.

By the sounds of it I could’ve walked home by the time I would’ve gotten a taxi/to my car, it’s a good hour and half walk!

If the southbound track underneath the M1 was open to public access, I probably could have been at the services there in twenty-five minutes. From there, home is a little trickier thanks to navigating the waterways, but it would be doable for a ride.
