ComplexCon

ComplexCon is a festival and expo that merges the worlds of music, sneakers, art, food, innovation, and more. The events take place at exhibition centers around the world, offering a chance for the world's top arbiters of style and culture to convene and create. For the 2025 series, ComplexCon takes place in Hong Kong and Las Vegas, Nevada.

Part of ComplexCon’s appeal is its creative direction, which varies by year and always promises a roster of diverse participants and experiences. Past ComplexCon chairs have included creative luminaries such as Pharrell Williams, Virgil Abloh, Sarah Andelman of Colette, and Japanese artist Takashi Murakami. In the 2020s, a range of artists have added their touch to ComplexCon, from Daniel Arsham to rapper and producer Travis Scott. Beyond the buzz of the performances and experiences that take place at ComplexCon lie the exclusive releases that are produced specifically for ComplexCon, such as the ComplexCon x Takashi Murakami Kaikai Kiki L/S T-shirtBlack shirt, designed by Murakami.

Operating as a global entity, ComplexCon produces a range of events aligned with the fest’s mission. ComplexCon puts its stamp on shows like Drink Champs with Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, while also creating official after parties of the fest with headliners like rapper Gunna. ComplexCon’s mission and momentum are so strong that capturing exclusive releases of sneakers, clothing, and other merchandise from the Con is one way that devotees can document the cultural powerhouse’s trajectory.
