Hosted throughout the year at various dream destinations all over the world, the KCON series is embarking on a new big-scale chapter this July by taking off for the United States. The KCON LA 2024 mainstage will be broadcast live on The CW for the first time in the music festival’s history. Despite the three-day schedule running from Friday through Sunday, only the final day’s main show will be telecast live on the American TV channel on July 28.

NCT 127 will perform at the KCON LA 2024 main event on July 28, while Kim Soo Hyun and Rowoon will step in as main MCs on different days of the three-part festival running from July 26 through July 28, 2024.

Numerous A-list South Korean stars avidly celebrated for their live music festivals over the years will return to the grand stage this weekend. These talents include beloved K-pop acts such as NCT 127, and ZEROBASEONE, as well as soloists Taemin, Hyolyn, and Jeon Somi, among others.

The historic airing of KCON LA on primetime national television in the US is part of a license deal shared by producer CJ ENM and The CW. The LA edition of the star-studded extravaganza follows this year’s KCON events in Hong Kong and Japan. It will be held at the Los Angeles Convention Centre and Crypto.com Arena. All MCountdown stages will be held at the latter, whereas the Festival ground, making room for the KCON Stage, Meet and Greet, and Showcases, will extend from the LA Convention Centre to the Gilbert Lindsay Plaza.
