Korean entertainment’s favorite convention is back! Every year, KCON LA has brought in fans from all over to experience Korean entertainment and music without traveling to Korea. From Bibigo snacks to skincare goodies from Olive Young and performances from big K-Pop artists like ZEROBASEONE, NCT 127, TXT and more, KCON LA remains one of the biggest events of the summer for K-Pop fans.
X STAGE
This year’s KCON will take place Aug. 14-17 at the Los Angeles Convention Center and will have a new element that features a 1-hour-long set for each headline on the M Countdown stage at the Crypto Arena. The lineup this year is full of new and seasoned K-Pop acts. Introduced in 2025, SHOWCASE for rookie artists on X STAGE serves as a way to connect them with fans, allowing them to be up close and interact. Similar to the ARTIST STAGE, but located in and around the bustle of the convention.
ARTIST STAGE
Also, each day will have specific artists performing on a fan favorite, the ARTIST STAGE. Where fans can enjoy around 4-5 songs performed in a more cozy setting compared to the usual stadium or arena shows.
