About KCON

KCON — short for Korean Culture Convention — is the world's largest K-pop fan and artist festival, organized by South Korean entertainment conglomerate CJ ENM and founded in partnership with Koreaboo in 2012. The inaugural event was held on October 13, 2012, at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in Irvine, California, drawing approximately 10,000 fans and featuring 4Minute, B.A.P, EXO-M, NU'EST, VIXX, and G.NA — dubbed by Billboard as "the mecca of K-pop." Combining a large-scale K-pop concert with a multi-day convention celebrating all facets of Hallyu, the event offers fan meet-and-greets, panels and workshops, K-beauty, K-food, K-drama stars, and cultural activations. BTS made their first U.S. festival appearance at KCON 2014. Expanding to Japan and New York in 2015, then Abu Dhabi and France in 2016, and Mexico in 2017, KCON has since reached 14 countries and over 2.225 million cumulative attendees. KCON LA 2023 set an all-time record with 140,000 in-person fans and 5.9 million global livestream viewers across 176 regions. The flagship events are held at the Los Angeles Convention Center and Crypto.com Arena, with additional editions in Japan, Thailand, Saudi Arabia, and Germany.
