FAQ

Tekko has been experiencing attendance growth in the last few years. In 2019, we had over 12,000 attendees, and we are excited to watch it continue to grow.

Tekko is a family-friendly event. Most events are open to all ages, although we do have late night content for 18+ that is clearly designated. Attendees must show an ID to attend any 18+ content.

Please bring a copy of your printed confirmation email in order to pick up your pre-registered badge. We also suggest a form of identification in order to speed up the registration process.

No, children age 6 and under are free . Children ages 7-12 are $25 for the weekend. However, they must be accompanied by a paying adult.

All children 12 and under must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Tekko and PittJCS take harassment allegations very seriously.  Only  the person who experienced the harassment can report it. If you are harassed, tell a security staff member immediately. If you are not comfortable talking to security directly, you may also contact our designated Harassment Response Officer at  866-767-9708 ext. 1 . or via  hro@pittjcs.org .

More information about our harassment policy can be found  here .
