Basscon’s Hard Dance Festival Wasteland Returns To SoCal In 2023

Since 2013, Basscon has championed the high-energy sounds of hard house, euphoric hardstyle, rawstyle, hardcore, and uptempo with Wasteland serving as its main American showcase. Now, Wasteland returns February 24-25, 2023 to SoCal to celebrate Basscon’s 10-year anniversary.

Hard dance has always been a highly elusive genre in the American dance music scene, but community remains solid as this will be the seventh edition of the beloved hardstyle festival hosted by Insomniac’s premier hard dance group.

Last year’s event brought some of the most highly-acclaimed international hard-dance stars like Amsterdam-based pair Sub Zero Project, Dutch producer Headhunterz, Norwegian duo Da Tweekaz, and LA-based artists Lady Faith and Lil Texas.

No lineup has been released yet, but tickets go on sale Thursday, October 6 at 12PM PST here.
