HARD Summer returns for its 11th year in 2018 at the Fontana Speedway in California. As the first year without any input from HARD Events founder, Gary Richards, aka Destructo, tensions are high and expectations even higher to put out a stellar lineup. With HARD’s history of mixing dance music and hip hop, and Insomniac’s strength in curating unique lineups (look at Middlelands last year), we had faith.


But holy fuck, this is more than we ever expected.

Diplo b2b Dillon Francis.
Borgore b2b Getter.
A-Trak b2b Baauer.
Virtual Self.
Virgil Abloh.
Rick Ross.
Marshmello.
Kill The Snails. (Kill The Noise b2b Snails!? Like come on…)

Party Favor returns once again, Sullivan King makes his HARD debut, YehMe2 returns, Whipped Cream returns, Flosstradamus is back, LOUDPVCK b2b Bighead, crowd favorites Louis The Child, Joyryde, Elohim, Ekali returns, KRANE, Ghastly, Ducky, Brownies & Lemonade All Stars…

Even if you’re not into the hip hop this year, which includes Lil Xan, blackbear, and YBN Nahmir, there are so many incredible acts on this lineup that we have to actually take a seat for a second.

This event will sell out. It will be one of HARD’s best events in years. And you do not want to miss out.

Tickets on sale April 27th, 9 AM PST at HARDSUMMER.COM.
