HiJinx Festival 2026 takes place on Wednesday, December 30 and Thursday, December 31, 2026 (New Year's Eve) at the Pennsylvania Convention Center, 1101 Arch Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107, in Center City. The official site lists doors at 4:00 PM ET and has not published an end time. HiJinx is 18+ to enter, you must be 21 or older with valid ID to buy alcohol, and every guest has to show a valid government-issued photo ID at the door.
The festival posted its 2026 lineup on its official Instagram on September 9, 2026. Dabin, DJ Diesel aka Shaq, Excision b2b Wooli, Ray Volpe b2b Sullivan King, Subtronics and Tape B lead the poster, followed by Brainrack, Calcium, Dennett, INZO, LAYZ, Level Up, Mary Droppinz, Moore Kismet, Rad Cat and TroyBoi. The post's caption invites ravers to “celebrate 8 years of FULL SENDS,” and the official site shows the lineup as an image. Set times are not out yet; the official FAQ says to follow the festival's socials for the HiJinx Festival Guide and set time announcements.
Inside, the ticket pages describe the HiJinx Stage with a VIP pit, a VIP viewing deck and lounge, and a side-stage viewing deck called Stinger Stage View for Stinger SVIP guests. Bars serve guests 21 and over with valid ID, food vendors will include local favorites, and free water refill stations are spread through the venue. Food and drink purchases are cashless, and ATMs are on site. Lockers are available (one is free with GA+ and higher passes), but there is no coat check and no re-entry.
