HARD Summer Music Festival has announced several new additions to its 2025 lineup, just months ahead of the event's return to Hollywood Park in Los Angeles. Joining the already stacked bill are Scottish producer Barry Can’t Swim, genre-blending duo KI/KI B2B DJ Gigola, energetic rap icon Busta Rhymes, Berlin-based live act Fcukers, and DJ collective Ladies of Leisure. These additions bring even more depth to an already diverse weekend of electronic and hip-hop acts set for August 2nd and 3rd.

However, the latest update also comes with a surprise departure. Italian techno star Deborah de Luca has officially withdrawn from the lineup. The reason? De Luca stated on Instagram that her name appeared in a smaller font on the festival flyer, which she considered “not dignified” for her career. After requesting a revision and being denied, she decided to step away from the event, expressing disappointment but wishing fans a great time.

With or without de Luca, HARD Summer 2025 continues to boast a massive lineup including Kaytranada, Gesaffelstein, Dom Dolla, Four Tet, Sara Landry, and Floating Points (Live).

As always, the two-day festival promises high-energy performances across a spectrum of genres in a bold, colorful setting.
