HARD WINE

Hard Wine is Jamaica’s premier out-of-season soca fete. Founded in 2002, it has evolved into a massive high-energy event known as "The Ultimate Soca Experience," celebrating soca music and vibrant Caribbean culture right in the heart of Kingston.

While historically celebrated with headline seasonal events (such as our major staging on Friday, October 30, 2026), we host multiple high-energy experiences throughout the year. Our standard home venue is Mas Camp at the Jamaica National Stadium in Kingston, Jamaica. Always check our official schedule for upcoming event dates.

Tickets can be securely purchased online via the official tickets page.

* Kingston: 100 Hope Road Gaming Lounge, IMUSE Halfway Tree, Apple Kings Halfway Tree, Campus Elite, and the UWI/UTECH Student Unions.* Portmore: Genus Pharmacy

There is no rigid dress code, but we highly encourage patrons to dress for the vibes! Wear comfortable footwear and stylish fete-wear that allows you to dance, jump, and wine without restrictions all night long.

Yes! You can filter through and purchase official gear—including branded Hard Wine shirts and stainless steel tumblers directly through the shop.

While the focal point of the night is absolute, high-energy Soca music, [Hard Wine](https://www.hardwineja.com/about) delivers a holistic Caribbean experience. Our resident and guest DJs spin a premium mix of genres from across the region to keep the energy going all night long.
