K-Pop Takes Over Minnesota: KPOPMINNECON debuts September 6 at Saint Paul RiverCentre. This one-day fan convention promises live performances, influencers, a dance competition, random dance, merch from vendors, and more!

Presented by MNKPOPCONNECT, KPOPMINNECON is expected to draw thousands of attendees for a full day celebration dedicated to Korean pop culture, music, and fandom. 

What to Expect:

• Live concert from rising K-pop artists and standout national and international talent
• Meet-and-greets with creators, influencers, and artists
• All-day K-pop random dance challenges
• A regional dance competition featuring top Midwest crews
• Exclusive dance workshop, plus live Q&A, and engaging fan panels
• Vendor hall featuring K-pop merch, and a variety of local and pop culture vendors for everyone

KPOPMINNECON is more than just an event — it’s a vibrant celebration of the passionate, creative K-pop community right here in the Midwest. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to K-pop, this is the can’t-miss experience that brings fans together from across the region and beyond.

K-pop has exploded in popularity across the U.S., yet major fan conventions have
remained rare in the Midwest — until now. 

KPOPMINNECON is set to change that by bringing fans together for a unique, in-person experience where they can connect with one another, discover emerging artists, and celebrate their shared passion for K-pop.
