In less than three weeks, Complex goes IRL with the first-ever ComplexCon, a two-day celebration of our culture in Long Beach, California. On Nov. 5 and 6, at the Long Beach Convention Center, we'll offer a glimpse into the future of art, music, film, food, and fashion. Our aim is to create an experience that will elevate your understanding of what our culture is and what it can be.
And of course music is a massive part of the event. Which is why we've put together this convenient primer on the biggest musical guests, from Skrillex to Travis Scott to Kamaiyah to Zoë Kravitz's band Lolawolf. (For the full lineup, check out the ComplexCon site.)
