Arizona Hardcore Junkies Unveils Stunning Lineup For AZHC XXX

Arizona Hardcore Junkies is celebrating its 30th anniversary with AZHC XXX, the biggest hardcore event to hit the state!

Nearly 30 years ago, an underground movement for the gnarliest hardcore beats emerged in the shadows of the United States. This had to have been rooted in Southern California, the hotspot of hard dance in America, right? To many fans’ surprise, hardcore music in America actually has roots in none other than The Grand Canyon State, led by party promoters Arizona Hardcore Junkies.

Throughout the years, this dedicated group of warriors has created spaces for legends such as Angerfist, The Outside Agency, Scott Brown, and Noisia to perform in the US while highlighting the underground DJs whose passion for hard music burned brightly. After a brief hiatus, Arizona Hardcore Junkies has announced plans to celebrate its 30th anniversary with its latest installment, AZHC XXX, in Phoenix on February 21.

This brand-new event promises to be the biggest and most stacked hardcore lineup ever in Arizona, showcasing the raw energy that has kept Arizona Hardcore Junkies alive for the past 30 years. It includes Italian maestro Noize Suppressor, Dutch duo The Outside Agency, and American pioneers Lenny Dee and DJ Delirium. These headliners will be joined on the mainstage with two back-to-back performances: Mike Hemp b2b Dope-E and CIK b2b K.O.R.E. Finally, American rawstyle will make its presence felt with a one-time-only return set from Mrotek.

AZHC XXX will also feature side stages with the Hardcore Bus and Techno Bus. Satronica, The Doctor, Deadnoise, Cetra, Rize, and Arcid b2b Virtue will guide the Hardcore Bus, hosted by SDK. Meanwhile, Brandon de Carlo, Alex Chen, VNLO, Audrey Voss, Tavoo, and LYZZ-E will bring the pounding beats to the Techno Bus, powered by Techno Snobs.
