What is KCON and KCON:TACT?
KCON is the world’s largest fan celebration of Korean culture and music. The first KCON was held in Los Angeles in 2012 and in the following years has expanded to New York, Tokyo, Bangkok, Abu Dhabi and many more places.
KCON includes everything from star-studded concerts and engaging panels to informative expos full of innovative products.
Last year, due to the ongoing pandemic, KCON has created KCON:TACT. The world’s first-ever online K-Culture Festival, KCON:TACT, was announced in June 2020. The fourth installment of KCON:TACT is only a few days away.
