About this event

  • Event lasts 10 hours

After selling out at RISING 2022, Heavy Congress is back for its long-awaited second elstalment —and this time it’s even bigger. 13 crews—made up of DJs, MCs and live performing artists—each wield colossal custom speaker stacks, bombarding the audience with bass, in a bid for the crowd’s seal of approval.

Heavy Congress is Day/night event steeped in Soundsystem lore and culture—a movement that spread from its Jamaican, Colombian and Afro-Caribbean roots to sprout subcultures across the globe, from England to Australia. If you need a break from the bass there’ are food trucks serving up the best food from the Caribbean and local offerings.

No two sound systems are the same, it is true that no 2 sound systems are equal.
Each sound system is built for its own unique sound, shape, looks and place in the sound system community. The sound system is built to give pleasure to the hands that built it and to the tribes that presents themselves in front of it for musical pleasures. Once you’ve found your sound, you will be dedicated for life.
