On the heels of the cancellation of one of its events, HARD has announced its two-day Day of the Dead” lineup, which features the likes of Deadmau5, Skrillex, Hot Chip, Nero, Flying Lotus, Future, Gesaffelstein, Glass Animals and A$ap Ferg.

The festival goes off Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 at the Fairplex in Pomona.

A “HARD Presents” event on Sept. 10 at the Fairplex was canceled on Thursday in the wake of the deaths of two teenage attendees at HARD Summer.

According to co-promoter Live Nation, the capacity of the popular Day of the Dead event will be limited to 40,000 (down from 65,000), and the event is now 21-and-older.

Day of the Dead’s diverse lineup sees HARD continuing to expand outside the electronic music world, with a strong hip-hop presence.

Tickets range from $125 to $290 (VIP) for a two-day pass and $85 for a single-day pass. They are on sale here.
