What comes to your mind, when you think of the ultimate party experience within the harder styles? Probably of course all huge outdoor events such as Wish Outdoor, Decibel, Defqon.1, Intents Festival and many more. But after a few years in a row at the same event could be boring, right? Yes I know, the Line-up, theme and more is always different, but, and this is what I personally think, there is so much more to do and experience!

So, grab your best buddies and friends, go abroad to Croatia and celebrate Hard Island Festival with hundreds of fellows.

FACTS10

Experience amazing summer vibes while surrounded by two of Croatia’s most beautiful mountain peaks, crisp blue water and sunny skies. Location of Hard Island is what truly sets it apart from any other festival.

In this article I want to give you a quick overview about last year’s edition and I tried to write down what to expect from this year’s edition – we’re really excited, but are you?

Hard Island 2015

2015 was the very first edition of Hard Island festival, but already had a huge success. It was different, new and somehow interesting to most of the people.
The line up was huge, packed with different labels, brands and acts. We had Q-Dance, Hardcore Italia with a 20 years special, Dirty Workz and Unite Records, which brought you the ultimate line up. Huge names like Coone, Wildstylez, Code Black, Da Tweekaz, Mad Dog, Zatox, Kronos, Anime and Art of Fighters made you dance into the sunset.

FACTS3

Island of Pag is situated on the western part of the Croatian coast. Known for its moonscape appearance, sun bleached karst rock forms set the feeling of another planet, trapped between two mountain ridges, surrounded by clear blue sky and crystal blue water.

It leads me to one of the most important aspects – the weather and location. Croatia is beautiful and the party island Nr.1. Hot bikini babes, the shining sun, beautiful weather, a 1-km long beach, with a stunning view, already called the new Ibiza! Seriously, it was really one of a kind and was just awesome! The whole location is amazing on its own, the music and the people made it special.

FACTS5

The parties took place in a beach club, with a pool, the stage and a few lounger, a bar and the VIP area! But besides the beach club parties you could also visit the boat parties, which were even crazier. Just imagine a small boat, packed with a kick-ass sound system and lots of party people – hell yeah, what a party.

So the overall experience was beyond our all expectations and besides all the big festivals worth to look at!

Accommodations

Ohh, sleeping … pretty important if you ask me. There are probably lots of accommodations around the destination. Use all common booking websites to find a fitting hotel.

Hard Island also offers different travel packages, which we would recommend if you’re searching for a good hotel/accommodation and festival access. You have the following options:

Basic Stay | Shared apartment – You’ll stay 5 nights in a shared apartment, which means foreign party people will or can join you in your apartment. As you can imagine this is the cheapest variant. Get your ticket + accommodation for just 159€ p.p.

Extended Stay | Shared apartment – The extended stay will give you two more nights in Croatia, which means you’ll arrive two days earlier. Make Hard Island to your holiday experience with this package. You will still share you apartment with others. 209€ p.p.

Basic Stay / extended Stay | Private apartment – There are two more options. You want to be alone with your friends or more important with your girlfriend? At night you want to lay naked next to each other and watch the stars? Have a quickie in the morning? Well, you should stay private then! For just 169€ p.p. for 5 nights that’d be your deal! If you want to go extended you need to pay 219€ p.p.
