Following a mid-October announcement that the annual affair would <a href=\"https:\/\/dancingastronaut.com\/2015\/10\/mysteryland-return-2016-memorial-day-weekend\/\">no longer take place over Memorial Day Weekend<\/a> but instead from June 10-13, Mysteryland has perhaps made its boldest move yet: it has ditched\u00a0the 21+ age restriction.<\/p>\n<p>A move that departs\u00a0from HARD Day of the Dead&#8217;s decision to increase its age limit from 18+ to 21+, Mysteryland USA is hopeful that the\u00a0inclusion of millenials 19 years and older will heighten\u00a0festival attendance. Despite this\u00a0year&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/dancingastronaut.com\/2015\/05\/mysteryland-2\/\">success<\/a>, contenders like EDC New York in particular detracted from Mysteryland&#8217;s potential to attract thousands more than it did in 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Holy Ground campgrounds will continue to implement a 21+ age requirement, permitting\u00a0younger attendees\u00a0access only to the primary areas of the festival.
