5X

This space is what we make it. At 5X Fest, we are coming together in community. That means showing up with respect, care, and awareness for everyone around you. Treat the artists, performers, vendors, staff, and each other with intention. We move as a collective. There is zero tolerance for harassment or discrimination of any kind. If something doesn’t feel right, trust that and let our team know. We are here to support you. Be mindful. Be responsible. Look out for one another. Let’s build a space where everyone feels safe, seen, and able to fully be here. A reminder that these are all smoke-free events. See you soon 🤍 #5XFest #festivalseason #bekind

Check out the 2026 5X Fest line up! From start to finish, this stage is stacked. Every artist. Every DJ. Every moment. Curated with intention to bring something unforgettable to the BlockParty. This isn’t just a line up — it’s a snapshot of where the culture is right now and where it’s going next. From rising voices making noise, to artists who’ve been shaping the sound, and even a couple of JUNO nominees, every single name on this poster is bringing something unforgettable to the stage. Different sounds. Different styles. One energy. This is the kind of night you feel before you even get there and remember long after it’s over. Trust us. You won’t want to miss a single set. And there might just be a few surprises along the way RSVP for the BlockParty today. This is the only concert of the summer, so don’t miss out! Pull up early. Stay late.

Not everything is planned. Some of the best art happens in real time. We’re excited to welcome Nishant Jain, also known as @thesneakyartist , to the 5X Art Party this Friday! Under his artistic persona as the Sneaky Artist, Jain sits in public spaces with a sketchbook and fountain pen, making secret drawings of city life. His art celebrates diversity in modern life and illustrates how complete strangers coexist. What started as a detour from writer’s block turned into a full artistic journey rooted in curiosity, storytelling, and creative freedom. Now based in Vancouver, Nishant brings that same spirit into everything he creates and this time, you get to witness it live. Throughout the night, he’ll be building a piece right in front of you. No filters, no edits. Just process, instinct, and a story unfolding in real time. This is what Adhikar looks like. Claiming space, following curiosity, and letting creativity lead. Pull up, tap in, and watch it come to life. 🎟️ Tickets at 5xfest.com/festival #5XFest #livedrawing #artparty #vancouver
