Hijacked Festival Launch with Ladbroke Grove star Conducta

After celebrating its 10th anniversary with a sell-out event last year at Double Locks, Hijacked Festival is back for 2025 and promises to deliver its biggest year yet.

Ahead of the main event on 29 May, Hijacked is hosting two launch parties, with Part 2 taking place tonight at Exeter Phoenix. Starting at 10 pm, the event will feature three rooms of music and a surprise secret space, giving festival-goers a taste of what’s to come.

The main room will see Traffic take over, joined by Exeter’s Hold It Down and UK garage heavyweight Conducta. A Bristol-born DJ and producer, Conducta is best known for hits like his double platinum track Ladbroke Grove with AJ Tracey and his viral collaboration Whippet with Sammy Virji.

Elsewhere, Momentum and Don’t Walk, Boogie will take control of The Workshop, while Sync or Swim will bring their sound to the Bar.

To make the night even better, two lucky ticket holders will win VIP passes to the festival in May.

Hijacked Festival returns to Double Locks on 29 May, bringing its signature mix of live music, food, drink, and a scenic riverside setting. Previous headliners have included names like Bicep, Folamour, Gorgon City, and Sammy Virji, and this year’s lineup is expected to be just as strong.

Tickets for the festival are already on sale, and with a track record of selling out, early booking is recommended.
