The festival’s debut at Hollywood Park last summer resulted in a rash of noise complaints in the area, with the Following the noise complaints, Inglewood Mayor James T. Butts Jr. wrote that “city authorities engaged the event promoter and the venue and implemented several critical adjustments to each stage and established enhanced monitoring plans for overall sound and bass levels. Additional sound engineers were strategically positioned in areas of concern…and were promptly dispatched to make necessary adjustments in real time.”
This year, HARD Summer will again put on its “Pre-Game” initiative, for which HARD partners with local establishments to bring them into the festival. In years past, this has meant on-site activations with L.A. institutions including Randy’s Donuts, Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles, Sweet Red Peach, Sunday Gravy and Carnitas El Artista.
Local businesses can apply here to inquire about partnering on this year’s edition of the project.
