'KCON' to be held in Germany for the first time from September 28-29 in Frankfurt


CJ ENM announced that 'KCON' will be held for the first time in Germany at Messe Frankfurt on September 28 (Saturday) and 29 (Sunday), 2024. Since its inception in Irvine, USA, in 2012, KCON has been hosted in various regions around the world, and this marks its first-ever event in Germany.


Germany ranks alongside the UK as one of the top music markets in Europe, following the US and Japan. The announcement of the world's largest K-POP Fan & Artist Festival 'KCON' being held in Germany has already garnered significant attention. KCON has been instrumental in introducing Korean culture and music globally and supporting artists' international expansion.


With its first event in Germany, 'KCON' is set to make a significant entry into the European market, where K-POP artist global tours are increasingly expanding. The festival promises to strengthen its brand as a unique event where global K-POP fans and artists can closely interact and communicate.
