Tickets: How to Experience KCON LA 2025

Getting your hands on KCON tickets can be competitive, so planning ahead is crucial. Tickets for KCON LA 2025 went on sale in mid-May 2025.

Ticket Types & Access:

For 2025, KCON LA is primarily selling single-day tickets, differing from previous years that offered 3-day passes. This gives attendees more flexibility to choose which days they want to attend. Here’s a breakdown of common ticket types:

  • 1 Day Premium: Offers access to the GA FLOOR at the M COUNTDOWN concert, the Festival Grounds at LACC’s West Hall, and the Artist Stage in the South Hall.
  • 1 Day Plus: Provides a seated ticket in a P1 zone for the M COUNTDOWN concert, along with access to the Festival Grounds and Artist Stage. It also includes dedicated viewing for the Artist Stage and red carpet viewing.
  • 1 Day Tickets: Grants access to the M COUNTDOWN concert (in P1, P2, or P3 sections), Festival Grounds, and Artist Stage.
  • M Countdown Only Tickets: For those solely interested in the evening concerts at Crypto.com Arena, available in P1, P2, P3, or P4. These tickets do NOT grant access to the convention grounds.
  • Festival Grounds Only: Provides access to the convention activities at the Los Angeles Convention Center for a single day. This is the core “KCON experience” with booths, activations, and more.
  • Meet & Greet Upgrades: These are separate tickets purchased for specific artists and provide an exclusive opportunity to meet and interact with idols. Meet & Greet events often take place outside the LA Convention Center.

Where to Buy:

Tickets are typically available through official ticketing partners like AXS.com and Ticketmaster.

Important Tips for Tickets:

  • Act Fast: KCON tickets, especially for premium packages and popular concert days, sell out quickly.
  • Check Different Tiers: Understand what each ticket tier offers before purchasing.
  • Mobile Tickets: Be prepared for mobile-only ticket delivery via apps like AXS.
  • Bag Policy: Be aware of venue bag policies, especially for Crypto.com Arena (small clutches/wallets typically permitted, larger bags usually not).

KCON LA 2025 Convention Experience & Activities

Beyond the concerts, the KCON convention at the Los Angeles Convention Center is a vibrant hub of K-culture activities.

What You Can Expect at the Convention

  • Festival Grounds: The main convention area, buzzing with hundreds of booths offering K-pop merchandise, K-Beauty products, K-Food, and interactive activities.
  • Artist Stage: An intimate stage within the convention center where artists perform mini-concerts (typically 3-5 songs) and engage in talk segments. This is usually included with convention access tickets.
  • Meet & Greet Stage: A dedicated area for fan interactions with artists, requiring separate tickets. These typically involve Q&A, games, and fan engagements.
  • DREAM STAGE: A fan-favorite segment where lucky attendees get the chance to perform K-Pop choreography on stage alongside their favorite artists.
  • Panels & Workshops: Learn about K-Pop industry trends, K-Beauty tips, Korean cooking, dance lessons, and more from experts and influencers.
  • K-COLLECTION Zone: Special areas often featuring innovative products from Korean small and mid-sized businesses, sometimes in partnership with Korean government agencies.
  • Sponsor Activations: Brands like Samsung Galaxy and CJ Olive Young often host interactive events and showcase products.
  • Red Carpet Viewing: Access to see artists arrive before the M COUNTDOWN concerts (often included with higher-tier tickets).
