F.A.Q.

Yes — UrbanovaFest is an all-ages festival. Attendees under 16 must be accompanied by an adult (18+), and licensed 19+ zones require valid government ID.

September 5–6, 2026 — Labour Day Weekend — at Markham Festival Grounds, 10801 McCowan Rd, Markham, ON, in the northeast of the Greater Toronto Area.

A valid ticket plus a government-issued photo ID that matches the ticket name. Minors without ID can use a school ID or arrive with their accompanying adult.

Tickets are personalized at purchase and non-transferable once issued. Official resale or name-change windows, if offered, will be announced to ticket holders by email.

Presale opens to the waitlist first — join at urbanovafest.com to lock in tier-1 pricing before public on-sale. General sale dates will be announced on Instagram and TikTok.

The lineup is dropping soon, and waitlist members hear it first. Two days, multiple stages — Afrobeats, Hip-Hop, Dancehall and Amapiano.

Yes — paid on-site parking plus a dedicated rideshare and drop-off loop at the main gate. Transit riders can use GO's Stouffville line (Mount Joy / Markham stations) and YRT/Viva routes.

Small bags (subject to search), empty reusable water bottles, sunscreen, phones and portable chargers. No outside food or drinks, weapons, glass, drones or professional camera rigs — see the full Rules page.

Same-day re-entry is limited and depends on your ticket tier. You'll need a valid wristband and a scan-out at the gate — details on the Rules page.
