Hackfest 2026 Information
Where:
The Halloween Hackfest will be held at Kirigan Cellars in Gilroy. We have had an amazing group from all over the. Bay and more: Alcatraz Outlaws, Sacramento Aces, Hollister Bad Lands, South Bay United, Team Nor Cal, MoHi, Santa Cruz, Hollister Hawgs, Laxthebay, Red Hawks.
This is an all-grass facility that sits in the hills of Gilroy amongst the grapevines. Due to the area, there will be no lights on the field so we will be done each day before sunset.
