🔱 Sinistry presents Hard Trance Europe's 10th Anniversary, with an Exclusive 2027 London Return at the newly refurbished and state of the art XOYO. 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞 (𝐇𝐓𝐄) thrilled to announce our landmark 10th-anniversary celebration, taking over XOYO London on SATURDAY 23rd JANUARY 2027. Partnering with our long-time friends and hard dance institution 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲, this high-energy day-to-night event will be our only scheduled London appearance for the entire year. This milestone marks an incredible decade since our inaugural London debut on 28 April 2017. Over the last ten years, we have grown HTE into a major international force, launching global tours across Australia, South Africa, Asia, Holland, Switzerland, Ibiza, Malta, and Ireland. Our powerhouse record label now hosts over 400 releases from a roster of 200+ elite global artists, while our annual festival weekender on the Grand Pier in Weston Super-Mare continues to grow from strength to strength. To celebrate a decade of your support, we are kicking things off with a massive day party running from 14:00 to 22:00, with a dedicated after-party to be announced very soon. We have chosen XOYO as our home for this very special occasion. The legendary underground music destination will offer an enhanced clubbing experience following its complete recent state-of-the-art refit and high-profile relaunch earlier this year. Powered by 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲, one of London’s longest-running and most respected hard dance institutions. For almost two decades, Sinistry has been at the forefront of the capital’s harder sounds, bringing some of the biggest names in hard dance to London through unforgettable showcases at Ministry Of Sound and huge day parties at XOYO. For HTE’s 10th anniversary, Sinistry is proud to join forces with Hard Trance Europe, helping bring this landmark celebration to one of London’s most iconic club spaces. Because this is our exclusive, one-off London date for 2027, demand is expected to be exceptionally high. Full lineup details incoming (Trust us, it's a worth waiting for!) with £20 early bird tickets now on sale. SiNISTRY + HTE x TICKETS VIA SKIDDLE 🔗

Great to be back in London again this time for two very different days! @ministryofsoundclub on Saturday for @bonkers.rave 30 years celebrations with @sinistryofficial, and then after some lazy GothEggs with @matthart3808 and Slither in the morning we headed to the @vinandomi show in the evening on Sunday. I'm so incredibly proud of my wonderful man @kohldj who has worked so hard to put on another amazing Sinistry event with Bonkers. It's never visible the amount of graft that goes into this stuff, but trust me it's never just the bouncing in the booth! It was also lush for me to get to see @hixxyuk That was a bit of a moment after decades of this stuff running a thread through my life. The Vin and Omi show at @artotel was magic. I wore a dress I made for @infestfestival a few years back with some additions to update it, and took great joy in styling a look for my man purely from Vinted finds. Which included a pair of trousers which came from a Japanese designer unavailable in the UK. They arrived in a bit of a mess unfortunately meaning they needed some work. So I spent some of last week on fixes and 'make it pop' alterations for us both but I'm pretty happy with how things turned out. We had an amazing night and were so happy and grateful to have been invited. Big ups to this weekend's adventure crew from @the_phantom_vault - @danny_calavera_dj and @bowtoxic who are the most brilliant of mates, make for the most excellent adventure pals... and of course to my boy Kohl who has been so much fun, support and has helped me and my wonky body be able to fully enjoy this experience. Recovery day today, back to the grind tomorrow 💪 Vid & Image descriptions in comments. #MinistryOfSound #VinAndOmi #LFW #DJ

🔥 Wow… What can we say? Thankyou! Saturday was un fucking real!!!! To all of you who came out to celebrate 3 decades of Bonkers at the Sold out Ministry of Sound, and showed up across the venue. You brought a whole new level in 2026. 🔱 Sinistry was blessed to be invited back to take over the 103 stage again, and you sinners and bonkers ravers didn’t disappoint. Massive thanks and respect to Sharkey, Kevin Energy, Lisa Pinup, Cally & Shocker, DJ Billy Daniel Bunter, Al Twisted, Lee Bain, PSR, Alex Mac & Zeebra Kid and Jester . The energy this year between the DJs and crowd was absolutely unmatched! Thanks most of all to Sharkey & Bonkers, Simon, and the extended teams for making space for us, and having us involved. Hardcore and harder dance music continues to live on through incredible, passionate ravers, djs, and of course organisers and promoters. Thank you for your faith in us!
