HARD Summer is quickly approaching, and with that comes the inevitable flood of questions from attendees wanting to know what the festival has in store this year.
The two-day event, which takes place on July 30 and 31, will be at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana – a first for the brand. It will also be the first time the festival will be introducing camping. HARD took it upon itself to shed some light on what festivalgoers can expect once they get there by answering some questions on its Twitter account.
Big news: HARD is removing all of its beer gardens, a big change for the now 18+ festival. Unlike last year, attendees wanting to purchase a drink can now freely roam the grounds with it.
