What is Hocus Pocus Miami 2026?

Hocus Pocus 2026, billed this year as Hocus Pocus 2026: Dystopia Halloween, takes place on Friday, October 30, Saturday, October 31 and Sunday, November 1, 2026 at Factory Town, 4800 NW 37th Ave in Hialeah, just north of Miami International Airport. It is the sixth edition of the venue's Halloween festival, presented by Factory Town, which now operates with Insomniac (the Factory Town site footer carries the Insomniac Holdings copyright and Magnetic Magazine credits the lineup to "Factory Town and Insomniac"). The official DICE listings, checked 3 Oct 2026, put doors at 10:00 PM each night with the event running until 7:00 AM, and the official FAQ says the event is 18+ with a valid government-issued photo ID required at the door and 21+ to buy alcohol or a VIP table.

The full lineup was announced on 6 August 2026 and is posted by day on the official lineup page. Friday, October 30 includes Eric Prydz, Gorgon City, Purple Disco Machine, Mall Grab, Chloé Caillet, Dax J and Todd Edwards B2B Conducta. Saturday, October 31 includes Meduza, Nora En Pure, Prospa, Kerri Chandler, Apollonia, Danny Daze, Skream, Joseph Capriati B2B Seth Troxler and Âme (DJ) B2B Marcel Dettmann. Sunday, November 1 includes Chase & Status, Indira Paganotto, Jamie Jones B2B Franky Rizardo, Odd Mob B2B Cassian, Baauer B2B Hudson Mohawke, Jayda G, Matthew Dear, Special Request and Eli Escobar. In total the official page lists 78 slots (several of them back-to-back pairings), which is how Factory Town gets to its "100+ artists" figure, and the official FAQ notes the lineup is subject to change. Magnetic Magazine reports that Miami crews getbusy and Electric Pickle will each take over the Cypress End stage.

Factory Town is a former mattress factory in Hialeah that its about page describes as seven acres of steel, concrete and open sky, with indoor warehouse rooms and outdoor stages. For 2026 the official site says the grounds become a "derelict ecosystem" of five interconnected stages styled as control rooms, ventilation chambers, reactor cores and machine architecture. The VIP ticket description names two of the stages, Infinity Room and The Park, which get elevated viewing decks and on-stage access for VIP. The official FAQ confirms local food vendors, free water refill stations, a Guest Services container near the north entrance for lost and found, and a VIP upgrade tent near Infinity Room. Costumes are encouraged, which is the main thing that separates this from a regular Factory Town weekend: three nights of house, techno and drum and bass that run until sunrise, on Halloween weekend, with the crowd in costume.

Travel & Planning Guide

Factory Town sits at 4800 NW 37th Ave in Hialeah, a few miles north of Miami International Airport (MIA), which is the closest major airport; Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FLL) is the usual cheaper alternative about 30 miles north. The official FAQ is blunt about driving: there is no onsite parking at Factory Town, the venue recommends carpooling or rideshare, it warns you not to pay anyone claiming to run parking near the venue, and illegally parked cars are towed at the owner's expense. Plan on Uber or Lyft both ways, and expect surge pricing and a wait when the event ends around 7:00 AM.

There is no official hotel partner or shuttle listed on the official page as of 3 Oct 2026. Hialeah itself has few hotels near the venue, so most people stay in the Doral and airport hotel cluster west of MIA (shortest rideshare), or in Wynwood, Downtown or Brickell for the rest of the weekend. Miami Beach is the longest ride back at sunrise. Because sets run until 7:00 AM, book somewhere with a late checkout or a flexible front desk, and remember the clocks go back one hour on Sunday, November 1, 2026, which is the festival's final night.

Tickets are sold through DICE and live in the DICE app, which the DICE listing says protects fans from touts; you can transfer a ticket to friends or family in the app according to the official venue FAQ, and DICE only refunds if the event is rescheduled or cancelled, with no refunds inside 24 hours of the start time. Bring the physical ID that matches your age: foreign licences need a colour photocopy of your passport for 18+ entry, but only a physical passport or US ID gets you the 21+ wristband. Re-entry is for VIP ticket holders only, so GA guests should eat before they go in. Doors on the DICE listings are 10:00 PM; the official FAQ says to check the time on your ticket and that set times are posted in advance on Factory Town socials and the Insomniac App.

What to Know Before You Go

🎒
Pack To The Bag Rules

The official bag policy is specific. Any bag 6 x 9 inches or smaller gets in, clear or not. Anything bigger must be clear and no larger than 12 x 6 x 12 inches. Empty hydration packs are allowed if they have no more than two main compartments. Leave the totem, the glass, the markers and any aerosol cans at home, they are all on the prohibited list, as are red light-up wands and batons. Small cameras under six inches are fine.

🎃
Costume Within The Rules

Costumes are welcome, and the official FAQ spells out the limits. Nothing that looks like police, fire, security or medical uniforms. No weapons or weapon props, including fake swords, lightsabers, whips or guns. No handcuffs, chains, ropes or sharp spikes. Masks are fine but glass or ceramic masks are not, and your face must still match your government ID, so go easy on full-face makeup if you want to get through the door quickly.

💧
Drink Water And Eat First

Hocus Pocus runs from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM each night, and Miami is still warm and humid at the end of October. The official FAQ confirms free water refill stations, so bring an empty reusable bottle or empty hydration pack. Local food vendors are inside, but re-entry is VIP only, so GA guests should eat a real meal before heading in and keep some cash or a card ready for vendors.

🚗
Rideshare, Do Not Drive

Factory Town has no onsite parking, and the official FAQ says to carpool or use rideshare. It also warns that anyone offering parking near the venue is not affiliated with Factory Town, and illegally parked cars get towed. Set a pickup pin before you go in, split the fare with your group, and expect a wait and surge pricing at 7:00 AM when three nights' worth of crowds leave at once. The Doral airport hotel cluster is the shortest ride.

🪪
Bring The Right ID

The official venue FAQ lists what is accepted: a US driver's licence or ID card with photo and date of birth, or a US or foreign passport. A foreign licence works only with a colour photocopy of your passport, and even then you will not get the 21+ wristband; you need the physical passport or a US ID to buy alcohol or enter VIP. School IDs, consular IDs, birth certificates, expired IDs and photocopies are refused.

📱
Watch For Set Times

The official FAQ says set times are posted in advance on Factory Town socials, the Insomniac App and email, and that the lineup is subject to change. With five stages and 78 slots, including Joseph Capriati B2B Seth Troxler, Jamie Jones B2B Franky Rizardo and Baauer B2B Hudson Mohawke, you will have to choose. Screenshot the schedule before you leave, phone signal gets patchy in a packed warehouse, and agree on a meeting point near the Guest Services container.
