World’s Largest K-pop Fan and Artist Festival Kicks Off Three Month Countdown with Three Prizes and Three Ways to Win

 

Los Angeles, CA – April 25, 2024 – The countdown to the world’s largest K-pop fan & artist festival, KCON LA 2024, has officially begun, with only 3 months left to go. Now taking place earlier in the summer from July 26-28, downtown Los Angeles will be buzzing as KCON takes over the iconic CRYPTO.COM ARENA, LOS ANGELES CONVENTION CENTER, and GILBERT LINDSAY PLAZA with exciting festival content, three nights of star-studded performances by the hottest K-pop artists, and more daytime performances and programming. KCON is the global launchpad for K-pop artists - fans experience KCON to see what's next in K-pop. Iconic moments include BTS performing at KCON in 2014, and the KCON collaboration between G-Dragon and Missy Elliott.

 

Considered a lucky number in Korean culture, KCON will hold three monthly giveaways for three lucky fans to win tickets to KCON, and one grand prize winner will also win hotel accommodations in downtown LA. Giveaway hopefuls have three ways to enter: via Twitter, email, or SMS subscription.

 

"For 12 incredible years, KCON has been the flagship experience for Korean pop culture worldwide, and we're thrilled to bring the magic back to Los Angeles," said Joen Choe, SVP Marketing at CJ ENM America, the organizers of KCON LA. “K-pop is a truly global movement, with 4 K-pop artists in the top 10 last year. We owe all of this to the fans, and we’re constantly striving to give fans a better experience every year. Our new festival format creates even more ways for fans to engage with their favorite artists, and with each other.”

 

Whether a seasoned K-pop aficionado or a newcomer eager to dive into the phenomenon, KCON LA 2024 guarantees attendees an unforgettable journey through the vibrant world of K-culture. This year, fans can expect an even bigger and better festival with multiple stage performances, both day and night. With KCON LA returning to the larger South Hall of the Los Angeles Convention Center, fans can also look forward to an expanded layout that features even more fan activations.

 

Tickets for KCON LA 2024 will be available soon, with updates on ticketing, artist announcements, and event programming dropping on KCON’s social media platforms (@kconusa on TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter) and the official website, https://www.kconusa.com.
