ComplexCon 2024 Is Heading to Las Vegas with Travis Scott and Playboi Carti Headlining

Mark your calendars because ComplexCon is back and bigger than ever! This November 16-17, the culture-shaping festival that merges the best of style, music, art, and food is making its highly anticipated debut in Las Vegas at the Convention Center. Known for redefining the boundaries of culture and collaboration, this year’s event is set to be the most ambitious yet, headlined by some of the hottest names in music. Playboi Carti and his Opium collective, along with Metro Boomin, will take the stage on Saturday, while Travis Scott and his Cactus Jack crew will close out the weekend on Sunday with what’s sure to be an unforgettable performance.

One of the major highlights this year is the creative direction of Travis Scott, who will be overseeing the festival as its 2024 Artistic Director. Scott is bringing a new vision to the event with “CactusCon,” an immersive experience inspired by his Cactus Jack collective. Expect to see exclusive Cactus Jack merchandise and one-of-a-kind activations that will be available only at the festival. Scott, who is fresh off his record-breaking CIRCUS MAXIMUS TOUR – officially the highest-grossing rap tour of all time – is returning to ComplexCon, an event he helped launch back in 2016, for a triumphant homecoming. His Sunday night headlining performance will be the perfect cap to an already stacked weekend.

This year’s ComplexCon follows the success of Family Style Fest, which took place in late September at the Los Angeles State Historic Park and served as a precursor to the Las Vegas event. The “Next in Line” competition, showcasing well-known and up-and-coming names in the food industry, was a major highlight of Family Style Fest and set the stage for what’s to come at ComplexCon. Family Style Fest brought together music, streetwear, and food in a way that mirrored the ComplexCon experience, offering a taste of the innovation and creativity attendees can expect this November.
