The engines are roaring once again for the Gearbox Grand Prix in the Ziggo Dome – but this year, the grid welcomes an exciting new contender. Gearbox Fusion, Gearbox’s hard techno sister label, is making its official debut with a brand-new second area. For the first time, the grid is expanding to include hard techno.

While the first crossovers between the two genres have already appeared at festivals in recent years, the Gearbox Grand Prix now officially unites them under one banner. In the striking trailer, Titi and Anderex speed across the circuit – a symbol of the growing fusion between RAW and hard techno. For example, Titi performed at Classified for the first time last month, and Anderex has already played at hard techno events such as PROTOCOL by KLOFAMA.

Raw and hard techno merge under one flag

After Fantasm shined at the last Breepark event, the moment has now come for the biggest indoor music venue in the country: the Ziggo Dome. As always, Gearbox is all about new talents ready to take pole position. The label is known as a breeding ground for next-gen producers, and Gearbox Fusion is no exception. “So expect more fresh talent and music here too.” The mainstage remains unchanged, featuring team B2B sets, an Overdrive closing, and brand-new live acts from Anderex, Mutilator, and The Smiler.

Gearbox – Pole Position hits the Ziggo Dome on January 17, 2026. Start your engines and secure your spot on the grid, tickets are available via the official website.
