Set to take place from August 1 to 3, 2025, at both the Crypto.com Arena and the Los Angeles Convention Center, this year’s event is themed ‘KLOVER’s Club Fair.’ Drawing inspiration from the four-leaf clover’s symbolism of luck and joy, KCON LA 2025 promises a rich cultural experience. Audience members will be able to explore four core areas of Korean culture—fashion, beauty, food, and literature—through dedicated spaces and interactive events.

KCON will also feature signature stages and events, including the Artist Stage, Meet & Greet, X Stage, and M COUNTDOWN, offering fans a mix of electrifying performances, fan engagements, and discovery opportunities. The Festival Grounds will serve as a vibrant cultural hub that enables fans to connect directly with their favorite stars while celebrating the many dimensions of Korean entertainment.

Tickets go on sale with the KCON EXPRESS presale beginning May 16 at 4 PM PDT (May 17 at 4:30 AM IST) and ending May 18 at 11:59 PM PDT (May 19 at 12:29 PM IST). All ticket options—whether for one day or the full weekend—include access to the Festival Grounds, KCON Stage, and Meet & Greet experiences. As anticipation builds, this year’s expanded programming ensures KCON LA 2025 will be a memorable celebration of K-pop and Korean culture for fans worldwide.
