History Of Hardcore Festival - The Hardcore Classics Gathering

On Saturday, June 6, 2026, history returns to its birthplace: the Hemkade in Zaandam. The sacred ground where thousands of gabbers lost their hearts to the music once again sets the stage for a new chapter. But make no mistake: this is not just a simple throwback. This is evolution. After goosebump inducing indoor editions at the Hemkade, we are now going all out for our very first full scale festival. We are transforming the Hemkade into a hardcore paradise with no less than four indoor and outdoor stages.
