SEOUL, March 27 (Yonhap) -- K-pop boy groups NCT 127, Tomorrow X Together (TXT) and Zerobaseone will headline KCON LA 2026 this August, the event's organizer said Friday as it unveiled a star-studded lineup for the upcoming U.S. leg of the annual overseas Korean culture festival.
South Korean media and entertainment giant CJ ENM announced the artists for the "M Countdown" show, the festival's signature K-pop concert series. Each headliner will perform an expanded one-hour set, offering a concert-scale experience to global fans.
The Los Angeles event is scheduled for Aug. 14-16 at Crypto.com Arena and the Los Angeles Convention Center. It follows the festival's 2026 kick-off in Japan, which will take place from May 8-10 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba.
According to the organizer, NCT 127, celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, will be joined by Zerobaseone, which recently recorded its sixth consecutive million-seller album, and TXT, which is currently preparing for a highly anticipated comeback.
The U.S. lineup also features a diverse array of rising K-pop acts, including ILLIT, izna, Meovv, P1Harmony, TREASURE and &Team. There also will be solo stages by Taeyong of NCT and Yeonjun of TXT.
Earlier the company announced the lineup for the Japanese event. The KCON Japan 2026 roster includes Alpha Drive One, AxMxP, Baby DONT Cry, Cortis, Hearts2Hearts, KickFlip, Kiss of Life, NiziU, P1Harmony, TWS, Zerobaseone and &Team.
First launched in the U.S. in 2012, KCON has evolved into "the world's only festival that combines K-pop shows with a convention where fans can experience every aspect of Korean culture -- from music and fashion to television and food," according to CJ ENM.
