Kick off Hard Candy early with our electrifying Pre-Party! A night of hard dance, unity, and pure rave energy before the main event.
About this Event

The Hard Candy Pre-Party is your chance to kick off the weekend early with a night of pure hard energy and underground vibes. Before the main event takes over, we’re turning up the heat with a high intensity warmup party built for the real ravers.

Expect a stacked lineup of DJs bringing happy hardcore, hardstyle, hardcore, and hard techno straight to the dancefloor. This is where the community gathers to connect, move, and let loose before the massive.

💥 What to Expect:

  • Heavy basslines and driving beats that set the tone for Hard Candy weekend
  • Intimate rave atmosphere with immersive sound and lighting
  • A chance to meet fellow ravers, link up with friends, and be part of the movement early
  • Exclusive sets you won’t hear on the main stage
  • High energy, raw freedom, and non-stop dancing from open to close

The pre-party is more than just a warmup it’s the official launchpad into Hard Candy. Whether you’re coming to get hyped for the big show or just want an extra night of harder styles, this is where the story begins.

There is a limited capacity at this amazing venue so get your tickets early! These will sell out.
