Festival aims for grassroots format

Hello82 co-founder Sang H. Cho stated the event was designed to feel community-focused rather than polished like previous conventions. The organizers recruited several people who previously worked on KCON to help manage this new outdoor format.

Event dates and location confirmed

The two-day festival is scheduled for October 17 and October 18 at the L.A. State Historic Park venue. This marks Hello82's attempt to capitalize on growing global interest in K-pop music festivals.
