KCON 2018 New York will take place between June 23-24 at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. The first group announced to be attending will be Wanna One.
Wanna One will be making their 4th KCON appearance, previously attending KCON 2017 LA and KCON 2017 Australia. They will also attend KCON 2018 Japan on April 13. Their appearance at KCON 2018 New York will also serve as the New York stop of their world tour, scheduled to begin in June.
KCON is the largest K-Pop Festival in the world and has branched off since its inception to include several cities throughout the world. KCON was created by Koreaboo’s founders in 2012 after approaching CJ E&M and Mnet with the idea to create a festival and convention for international K-Pop fans. It has now expanded to cities such as Newark, USA; Chiba, Japan; Abu Dhabi, UAE; Mexico City, Mexico; Paris, France; and Sydney, Australia and sees 100,000+ attendees yearly.
