Boiler Room made its debut in Brisbane last November and hosted its biggest-ever Australian event in Sydney in December 2024.

From humble beginnings to becoming a cultural powerhouse, Boiler Room began with a webcam taped to a wall that opened a keyhole into London's underground. Since 2010, Boiler Room has amassed an impressive archive that hosts over 8,000 performances by more than 5,000 artists in 200 cities, reaching millions of EDM fans monthly.

Earlier this year, The Music reported that multinational giant Superstruct had acquired Boiler Room for an undisclosed sum. Superstruct Entertainment, a European festival organiser, declined to reveal the terms of the deal.

The New York-based firm KKR acquired Superstruct last June, and controversy has followed this year’s KKR-affiliated music festivals.

The Boycott, Divest & Sanctions movement, as well as other pro-Palestine groups, have claimed that KKR has invested in Israeli tech and data firms and has alleged connections to weapons manufacturers and defence contractors. Due to the ongoing devastating war in Gaza, in which an estimated 56,152 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces, there have been persistent calls to boycott KKR-owned festivals.

Artists and punters in support of Palestine have urged Superstruct festivals to “distance themselves from KKR’s complicit investments.”

Responding to the calls to boycott, a representative for Superstruct recently told IQ Magazine that they were “concerned about the wellbeing of our staff and we cannot tolerate individuals or groups who pressurise, persecute or seek to unduly influence any fan, artist or colleague.”

Earlier this year, responding to criticism, Boiler Room said it would “always remain unapologetically pro-Palestine” and “engage with Palestinian artists and organisers in order to formalise our internal policies in line with this commitment.”
