Dropzone over the years has been a unique holiday for hardstyle lovers with thousands of people from all over the world celebrating their summer on the Croatian island for the whole week full of pool and boat parties, as well as mainstage shows in the coolest clubs (until the sun comes up again in early morning).

“Dropzone gives everyone the opportunity to choose if they want to enjoy hardstyle or only hardcore each day!”

Whether you like just hardstyle or only hardcore: don’t worry you can still spend your entire holiday listening to your favourite genre on stunning Zrće Beach: “This massive collab with Forbidden Island gives us the opportunity to extend the program but also making all the hardcore heads happy, including our loyal visitors who are asking for more hardcore on Dropzone”, says the Dropzone excitingly about the collaboration. “Bringing many of Forbidden Island’s hardcore concepts and parties to Dropzone (while keeping the vibe among our visitors), we are giving everyone the opportunity to choose if they want to enjoy hardstyle or only hardcore each day!”

Dropzone and Forbidden Island were already at the same location in Novalja, so a collaboration is a logical decision. “With Forbidden Island we had an amazing three years at the end of August in Croatia, but we had more and more requests by our hardcore fans, especially ones from overseas, to move the festival earlier”, the Forbidden Island team adds about this new chapter. “Since we are on the same location anyway, joining forces made perfect sense for us, but only under one condition: we need to make this the world’s biggest hard dance holiday and include many dedicated hardcore parties that we have developed on that location over the years, so all hardcore fanatics also have their place at Dropzone.”

With the addition of Forbidden Island to Dropzone, your favourite holiday is now even bigger: you can walk from one party to the next all week long. “With keeping the Dropzone hardstyle program and now adding dedicated hardcore concepts developed by Forbidden Island we are truly on the mission to create the world’s biggest hard dance holiday in history”, Dropzone concludes. Get hyped for a 6 day long marathon of mind-blowing mainstage shows in award winning party clubs, outdoor pool party vibes, boat raves and adrenaline pumping activities.

“Get ready for more stages, epic pool and boat parties you’ve never seen before on Dropzone!”

Dropzone will take place from 6 July to 11 July 2025 on the coast of Croatia. For tickets and more information, visit the official website: the full line-up and all activities for 6 days of Dropzone will be announced later. “This will be the Hard Dance Holiday of your dreams, all on one insane summer destination – Zrće` Beach on Pag Island in Croatia.”
