International festival on cybersecurity and technology for everyone

Positive Hack Days Fest returns in 2027

The cyberfestival will skip 2026. The next PHDays Fest is set for 2027.

As we prepared the 15th cyberfestival, venue constraints emerged due to reconstruction at Luzhniki and other large sites. Given these limitations, we could not deliver signature PHDays experiences at the standard our community expects. To uphold the quality bar for all areas and formats, we are moving the anniversary festival to 2027 at a new venue, with no compromises on scope or production value.

Thank you for your understanding. See you at PHDays Fest 2027.
