VIP FAQ's
While VIP passes are available for purchase for guests as young as 13 years of age, our VIP amenities are designed for adult guests 21 years of age and above.
Children 12 years of age and under are not required to have a ticket to the festival. However, they will not be permitted into the VIP areas at City Plaza and Moore Square, nor will they be permitted to attend the VIP parties. We kindly ask that children enjoy the festival from the GA areas.
All Hopscotch attendees 13 years of age and older must have a VIP pass for admission to the VIP areas at City Plaza and Moore Square.

Individual venues may have age restrictions for their club shows. Check back closer to the festival for age restrictions on club shows.
