This Event Has Now Been Cancelled
But Here’s What’s Happening Instead
James Hype’s much-anticipated U.S. debut of ‘SYNC’ at Brooklyn Mirage on July 5, 2025, has officially been cancelled. The British DJ and producer shared the news after weeks of uncertainty about the venue’s readiness. But fans in New York aren’t being left empty-handed—two free parties will take place on the same date at a secret Brooklyn location for those who held tickets to the original show.
“Thousands of people bought tickets to see SYNC + Brooklyn Mirage. We still plan for the Mirage show to happen—likely in 2026.”
– James Hype
To make it up to NYC fans, James is hosting two exclusive free events on July 5. If you had a ticket to the cancelled Brooklyn Mirage show, you’ll receive an email and SMS with a secret link to reserve your spot. Act fast—space is limited even with double the shows.
Why the Cancellation?
As James explained, ongoing construction delays at Brooklyn Mirage made it increasingly unlikely that the venue would be ready in time. Rather than move the debut to a different location—something that didn’t feel right given the scale and expectation of ‘SYNC’—he opted to postpone the full experience to 2026 and find an alternative way to deliver for his fans now.
What Is ‘SYNC’?
‘SYNC’ is more than a DJ set—it’s James Hype’s vision for the future of live EDM performance. Combining high-energy DJing with real-time visual synchronization, ‘SYNC’ debuted during his residency at Hï Ibiza and quickly became one of the most talked-about shows in the scene.
The setup includes a full LED DJ booth that reacts to every action—scratches, beat drops, and transitions—all in perfect sync with the visuals. The concept is redefining what audiences expect from live DJ performances.
What Happens to My Ticket?
You now have two options:
- Hold onto your ticket for the rescheduled Brooklyn Mirage show in 2026, or
- Request a full refund via the platform you purchased from (e.g., DICE).
Meanwhile, ticket holders are eligible to attend one of the two free events on July 5—but you must reserve your space using the secret link sent to your email/SMS.
What to Expect at the Free Parties
While these parties won’t be the full-scale ‘SYNC’ production, they’re still set to be unforgettable. Expect:
- High-energy DJ sets from James Hype
- A special Brooklyn vibe at a secret location
- One-day-only magic shared with die-hard NYC fans
- A chance to party up close with one of EDM’s most innovative artists
“Despite doing two sets in one day, we still won’t be able to fit everyone in, so don’t wait on grabbing your spot,” James advised.
Looking Ahead to ‘SYNC’ in 2026
Though the Brooklyn Mirage performance is on hold, ‘SYNC’ will return—bigger, better, and at the right time. This delay offers an opportunity to further refine the show and deliver the groundbreaking experience fans were promised.

Final Thoughts
While it’s disappointing that the original July 5 show won’t go ahead, James Hype has responded with integrity and generosity. By offering two free Brooklyn parties and honoring all tickets for a 2026 date, he’s showing why fans continue to rally behind him—not just for his music, but for how he handles moments like these.
