Join Ingenuity Cleveland at IngenuityFest 2025: Forging the Future, taking place Sept. 26–28
at IngenuityLabs, Ingenuity's year-round headquarters and creative incubator at 5401 Hamilton Ave. in Downtown Cleveland.

This year’s festival theme—Forging the Future—celebrates Cleveland’s deep industrial roots while casting a bold eye toward tomorrow. With a dynamic blend of art, industry, and imagination, IngenuityFest 2025 will showcase hands-on experiences, electrifying performances, and immersive exhibits that bring together makers, dreamers, and doers of all stripes.

The festival will take place after a year of expansion, bringing nearly 100,000 square feet of new creative space online in the St. Clair Superior neighborhood for artisans of all sorts to dream, dare, and do!

Returning to our 100-year old reimagined factory, IngenuityLabs, this year’s festival invites guests to get hands-on with time-tested tools of yesteryear from blacksmithing to glassblowing, as well as experience the technologies of tomorrow. Festival Villages will include favorites like the sustainability-focused IndusTREE Alley & Mechanique Biotique, the immersive Dream Destinations, Makers Mecca, and more!
