PRESIDENT, Slam Dunk Festival 2026

LIVE REVIEW: Anyone out there still questioning whether PRESIDENT is a genuine phenomenon need only stand in the middle of the roar that the thousands-strong stretching back as far as the eyes can see is making to welcome them to the stage for their Slam Dunk debut. The only thing louder than that fanfare is the sing-along that then accompanies the opening gambit of ‘Fearless’.
With every show they play, the more and more sensational every aspect of this fantastical project feels. New additions ‘DOOM LOOP’ and ‘Angel Wings’ are as grand and emotional as they are brilliantly punishing in these surroundings, whilst the whizzes and bangs attached to the spellbinding ‘RAGE’ add a necessary coolness to these baking conditions. 
Just a few weeks out from the first anniversary of their first performance, those 365 days have added so much to what PRESIDENT is, not just as a live act but as a pillar of this community. There are still moments where the sight of the mask sends a discomforting shiver up the spine as they stare out into the masses, but there is now a softness to their expression. A sense of gratitude and adoration has been instilled, simply from just how feverish and fantastical this connection between artist and fan has become.
With one final guttural yelp via a crisp ‘In The Name Of The Father’, another rally is complete, and another step towards complete domination is taken. 
History in the making, every single time.
