VidCon is the leading global event for content creators, influencers, digital media brands, and fans. The convention features creator panels, live entertainment, networking opportunities, meet-and-greets, and industry discussions focused on the future of online video, social media, and the creator economy. More than 16 years after its debut, VidCon continues to shape the digital content industry and reflects the rise of content creation as a mainstream global business.
VidCon, the world's largest annual celebration of digital culture and its creators, is scheduled to take place this summer in Anaheim, California.
Founded by YouTubers John Green and Hank Green, the event draws together creators, fans, brands, and the creator industry. Last year, featured creators included Anthony Padilla, Dr. Sandra Lee (also known as Dr. Pimple Popper), Tyler Oakley, and more, as the event coincided with YouTube's 20th anniversary.
This year’s lineup isn’t looking too shabby, either. Fans can expect dozens of both new and familiar creators, including aimsey, Alberta Tech, GloZell, Jeremiah Brown, Nathan Kessel, Rosanna Pansino, and SSSniperWolf, amongst other top video creators across YouTube and other social media platforms.
