IngenuityFest 2026 will transform Ingenuity Labs (5401 Hamilton Ave.) into a four-story immersive dreamscape exploring the question, "What does America dream about?” from September 25–27. Since its inception in 2004, IngenuityFest has pushed the boundaries of art and science, discovering new ways to combine them. 

The festival sprawls throughout a warehouse, outdoor spaces, and one closed street, giving it the feel of a street festival alongside its indoor exhibits. Expect food trucks and vendors selling art, thrift finds, jewelry, and baked goods, alongside hundreds of artists and thousands of visitors.

Visitors will enter an immersive landscape where featured spectacles explore one burning question: What does America dream about? Festival highlights include the immersive Garden of Heroes exhibition, live professional wrestling, aerial and acrobatic storytelling, interactive maker installations, and performances by local and regional musicians. You never know what you'll find at IngenuityFest.

Ticket prices start at $20 for a day pass, $30 for a weekend pass, and kids 12 & under are free.

Experience art, technology, performance, and imagination unlike anywhere else in Northeast Ohio. Purchase tickets online today at www.ingenuitycleveland.org.
