KCON LA 2023 is back this summer to connect even more fans, artists, and industry professionals for an unforgettable weekend celebration of K-pop and K-culture. KCON is the world’s No.1 K-culture festival and the Los Angeles convention is their flagship event. This year it is poised to be the biggest and best KCON LA yet.

This year's KCON LA will have more fan-engaging programs and upgraded panels and workshops involving more artists. The convention portion of the weekend will reflect 2023's theme, "BE A KCONer." The convention area will feature various "missions" to take attendees on a journey through the world of K-culture. Fan favorite panels and workshops like DANCE ALL DAY will return better than ever with a space at the convention to film short-form videos of the choreography they learn in the workshops, allowing KCONers to enjoy KCON to the fullest.
After making its debut at KCON JAPAN 2023, “SHOWCASE: NICE TO MEET U” will come to KCON LA to showcase K-pop artists and new performances. As KCON continues to serve as a platform for K-pop artists and new acts to meet their global fans, the showcase will bring the artists to their fans for sessions filled with closer-than-ever interactions.
