HARD Events has announced the complete lineup for the 2015 edition of its Halloween festival, Day Of The Dead. Among those slated to headline the two-day event are Skrillex, deadmau5, Future, Hot Chip, Nero, Gesaffelstein (DJ Set), A$AP Ferg, Glass Animals and Flying Lotus.
HARD Events split up the lineup into Saturday, Oct. 31 and Sunday, Nov. 1. Among those who will be performing on Saturday are Sub Focus, JETS (Jimmy Edgar & Machinedrum Live), Tommy Trash, Method Man & Redman, Luciano, Armand Van Helden, Vic Mensa and more.
Sunday will have its fair share of quality performers including Juicy J, Kill The Noise, Hot Natured, Tuskegee (Seth Troxler B2B The Martinez Brothers), Valentino Khan, Lee Foss, Jack Beats and more.
The lineup is dominated by DJs, but as is tradition at HARD events, there are some live elements. They have tabbed a few live electronic acts like Hot Chip and Club Cheval, but will really keep things interesting with the rappers on the bill.
HARD has made a pretty big change in 2015, increasing the age of admittance to 21+, possibly as a move to counter the deaths and hospitalizations that have occurred on its grounds in the past few years. Earlier this month, its major summer festival, HARD Summer, which was headlined by the likes of The Chemical Brothers and Jack Ü, was marred by the deaths of two teenage attendees of suspected overdoses.
Los Angeles County officials have been weighing recommendations on whether or not to ban EDM festivals on county land, but it appears as though DOTD is going ahead as planned.
HARD Day Of The Dead will occur at the Fairplex in Pomona, California over Halloween weekend. Tickets are on sale now starting at $143 for a two day pass. See the full lineup below.
