House Hats Collective Launches Nonprofit, Takes Flight With Airport Hangar Party
House Hats is out to prove that house music can not only give energy, but also give back.
The US-based electronic music collective, which operates a prominent record label and prolific event brand, is currently celebrating its 5th anniversary. And they're going big, organizing their most ambitious event yet while raising funds for a timely cause.
The collective has announced "House Hats Hangar," a rare party taking over the Tampa International Airport's cavernous Sheltair Aviation hangar February 16th, 2025. Two years in the making, the show will benefit House Hats' newly launched nonprofit, Beats Give Back, which provides foster care students with accessible music technology, equipment, education and opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach.
The hangar transformation symbolizes the collective's larger ethos: turning unexpected spaces into conduits for creativity and community support—all fueled by house music.

"House Hats Hangar" will follow the collective's recent 5th-anniversary celebration in central Florida, which doubled as an afterparty for EDC Orlando. Miami-based beatsmith ChaseWest headlined the show with support from Kinahau and Slugg.
The night will kick off with a private fundraiser featuring a charitable auction benefiting Joshua House, a foster home to which Beats Give Back has donated funds and music equipment. Then, just like Sheltair Aviation's planes, the party will accelerate over in the hangar, where ChaseWest will again throw down a headlining DJ set. He'll be joined by ascendant house music star Beltran, who was recently revealed on Coachella's 2025 lineup.
You can sign up for the "House Hats Hangar" pre-sale now. Tickets will go on sale to the general public Thursday, December 19th at 12pm ET.
In the meantime, you can donate to Beats Give Back here.
