To celebrate the 10th Anniversary of ComplexCon,<\/a> we are bringing this year\u2019s celebration of convergence culture to the Los Angeles Convention Center on Oct. 3 and 4, 2026. As we countdown to the date here is everything you need to know (so far).<\/p>\n

ComplexCon 2026 is a full Opium takeover, with Playboi Carti and Ken Carson headlining.<\/a> On Saturday October 3, Ken Carson is headlining and HXG, ApolloRed1 and DJ Moon will also be on stage. Playboi Carti<\/a> headlines the Sunday show with Destroy Lonely and F1lthy joining him on the lineup. ComplexCon has always been the home to historic musical performances<\/a>. Both shows are at Crypto.com Arena and doors open both nights at 6pm with the music starting at 7:00 pm.<\/p>\n

Playboi Carti is pulling double duty as Co-Art Director for ComplexCon. Hiroshi Fujiwara is his Co-Art Director<\/a>. They follow in the footsteps of Takashi Murakami, Travis Scott, Daniel Arsham, and others who have helped guide the way for the ComplexCon experience.<\/a><\/p>\n

For ComplexCon 2026 you can buy tickets to just the Concerts or the Marketplace. If you want to attend both, you need to buy them here.<\/a> Tickets to the Marketplace also get you access to the Family Style Food Festival<\/a> and to Thriftcon 2026<\/a>. Tickets to the Marketplace are valid for both Saturday and Sunday, so you will not miss any drops.<\/p>\n

ComplexCon is famous for exclusive Style<\/a> and Sneaker <\/a>drops. This year will be no different. While we can not tell you everything, we have already announced that Fragment<\/a>, Wu Wear<\/a>, and Represent<\/a> will be having exclusive drops this year. The Marketplace<\/a> is full of some of the top brands in Style and Sneakers with BAPE, Mitchell & Ness, Nike, Vans, and hundreds of other booths full of merchandise. The one booth you will need to check out is that of @DesignsByLeaf<\/a>, the 13-year-old designer who asked for his shot and we are giving it to him.<\/a><\/p>\n

ComplexCon 2026 is in Los Angeles this year. The Concerts are at the Crypto.com<\/a> Arena (1111 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles, CA 90015), while the Los Angeles Convention Center (1201 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles, CA 90015) is home to the Convention. The Family Style Food Festival and Thriftcon will both be in the Convention Center.<\/a><\/p>\n

ComplexCon.com<\/a> is the best place to go to for the full schedule, including panels such as Sneaker of the Year and Streamer of the Year<\/a>. You should also download the Complex App<\/a> for real-time notifications and updates from the event.<\/p>\n
