Gary Richards's Hard Events has announced the dates for its summer festival Hard Summer. The two-day electronic music festival will be held at the Fairplex, formerly known as the Los Angeles Country Fairgrounds, in Pomona, California, just outside Los Angeles. The festival will be held Aug. 1 to 2 and early-bird tickets will go on sale tomorrow, March 13.
Hard Summer moves back its original location after spending 2014 at Whittier Narrows in L.A. Last year featured the likes of Tiësto, Disclosure, Axwell, Jack Ü, Maya Jane Coles, Chase & Status, Cashmere Cat, Oliver, Tchami, What So Not, Tommy Trash, Dillon Francis, A-Trak and many others.
The festival has not announced its lineup yet, but it will be doing so shortly. The festival gave some additional insight as to why it loves the new location and for what fans can expect this year on Twitter.
We are so happy to be returning to the Fairplex it’s the perfect venue for HARD Summer.

Super easy access to the freeways, parking, and logistics are made so much more simple because they are use to dealing with large crowds. — #HSMF15 (@HARDFEST) March 12, 2015
The indoor / outdoor space is perfect for hosting our 5 stages. Can’t wait to share this amazing line up we have hand picked for you. — #HSMF15 (@HARDFEST) March 12, 2015
