As many festivals slated for 2020 have postponed, cancelled, or gone online, organizers across the country have put their energy into planning the 2021 iterations of their respective events. As such, Pasquale Rotella, Insomniac Events, and the HARD festival franchise have announced that HARD Summer will be returning in 2021 with a “massively expanded” footprint. The festival will return on July 31 and August 1 of 2021 to Southern California, and it will make its debut at NOS Events Center in San Bernardino.
HARD Summer will feature five outdoor stages, including the HARD Stage, which will feature top acts in electronic music and hip-hop. The 2021 lineup will be announced soon. Presale tickets for next year’s event go on sale Thursday, October 15 at 12:00 p.m. PT here. For those that purchased 2020 general admission tickets, HARD Summer organizers announced earlier this year that those who held onto their 2020 passes would be upgraded for 2021. VIP passholders who held onto their passes will receive an additional VIP pass for 2021.
