Hard Times Events

04/08/2026

Some of you may not know but, we also do things a little softer and a little slower. Boom Room is our sister brand - promoting all things HOUSE & TECHNO.

House & Techno music isn't about constant drops—it's about groove, rhythm, and atmosphere. Small changes build energy over time, creating a journey that's best experienced on a powerful sound system surrounded by a crowd. It's less about listening and more about feeling the music. Once it clicks, you'll understand why people say house & techno music is a feeling, not just a genre.

ONE MONTH TO GO

Hard Times Reloaded

You asked. We listened.

After a short hiatus, HARD TIMES returns with its first solo event... and we're coming back with a bang.

For 7 relentless hours, expect nothing but the hardest beats, thumping basslines and the raw underground atmosphere that made Hard Times what it is.

We welcome back the Welsh madman and Jinko Chino frontman - CHUCK-E. Flying down from Glasgow we've got the awesome anthem maker - QUINNY. And Hard Times favourites RENNZ & JUST JOSH (aka Yoshimitsu)

And delivering every kick drum exactly as it should be? The mighty Kryptic Sounds soundsystem.
No compromises. Just pure rave energy and big pressure waves.

🎟️ LIMITED £10 Early Bird Tickets are LIVE NOW
