Thunderdome je poznata ideja u hardcore/gabber glazbi, i uglavnom se koristi za tekući niz zabava i kompilacijske CD albume.
Povijest Ideja Thunderdomea počela je sa zabavom održanom 20. lipnja 1992. pod imenom Thunderdome: The Final Exam. Ova zabava je bila prvi pokušaj širenja hardcore/gabber glazbe na široku publiku. Ideju je pokrenula izdavačka kuća ID&T koja također stoji i iza ostalih glazbenih događaja kao što su Mystery Land, Sensation White i Sensation Black. 1993., ID&T je također pokrenuo objavljivanje Thunderdomeovih kompilacijskih CD albuma. Također su prodani različiti rekviziti kao npr. majice, bombarderske jakne, privjesci, kape, pa čak energetsko piće Thundertaste i kondom Thunderdoom. Ideju Thunderdomea je vrlo važno uzeti u obzir za popularizaciju i širenje gabber glazbe tijekom 1990-ih. Iako je to nedvojbeno najveća i najpopularnija ideja u sceni tijekom većeg dijela 1990-ih, taj naslov se sada suparnički zbog drugih događaja poput danas popularnijeg Masters of Hardcorea. Zanimljiva je činjenica kako su neki od novijih izvođača hardcore/gabbera, kako oni sami tvrde, kao poticaj za produkciju vlastite glazbe dobili upravo iz pjesama iz starijih Thunderdomeovih CD albuma.
Krajem 1999., ID&T je pauzirao Thunderdome i zaustavio organiziranje zabava i objavljivanje CD-a. Ta stanka je trajala do 2001., kada su nastavljena organiziranja zabava i objavljivanja CD-a koji traju i dan danas. Od ponovnog pokretanja, zabave se održavaju jednom godišnje. 2002. koncept za zabavu je bila deseta godišnjica Thunderdomea pod imenom Thunderdome: A Decade. CD koji je snimljen uživo na zabavi i obljetnički DVD su objavljeni pod istim nazivom Thunderdome: A Decade. 2008. objavljen je komplet od 3 CD-a pod nazivom Thunderdome XV - 15.Years.Of.Thunderdome. 2006. povodom proslave službene himne Thunderdome 2006, osnovana je izdavačka kuća "Thunderdome Records".
