South Korea-based immersive entertainment brand Kamp Global, in partnership with Eventim Live Asia (ELA), is hosting Kamp Los Angeles 2022, featuring one of the biggest live music K-pop experiences in history. The event is set to bring a blockbuster lineup to the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on October 15-16th.

Confirmed acts include Monsta X, Kai (of Exo and Super M) and Jeon Somi, in their solo debut US appearance; the iconic Super Junior playing Los Angeles for the first time in six years; iKON in its first US performance since COVID; BamBam, and a host of acts performing Stateside for the first time, such as Zion. T, and Lapillus. The full lineup with additional headliners and artists for the two-day event will be announced in the coming weeks.

“It’s exciting to take part in the Kamp LA lineup,” says KAI. “This may legitimately be the biggest K-pop event in US history.”

This immersive two-day concert will be held inside the stadium and boast arts, culinary, gaming, and significant brand collaborations, including a partnership with legendary Los Angeles artist Kenny Scharf to create Kamp LA 2022 imagery and aesthetics. Through its brand partnership with South Korean media phenomenon Dingo Music and South Korea’s leading personalized card payment system i-Aurora, Kamp will also bring exclusive content and trending technology to the live music space, including personalized, collectible Kamp LA-branded South Korean payment-approved cards.

Kamp LA 2022 brings together the powerful vision and singular history of Kamp Global CEO Tim Kim with the global reach, experience, and network of Eventim Live Asia, led by CEO Jason Miller. Kim has led Kamp to the forefront of the K-pop movement. His experience includes working with high-profile clients in the Western music and Hollywood space. Kim identified the potential for K-pop as a global force in entertainment very early on and brought Kamp to life to lead and foster K-pop’s cultural expansion.

Kamp first came to life with its 2019 Singapore Festival. The sold out event featured Super Junior, NCT 127, Stray Kids, Momland, GFriend, Sonnet Son, WJSN, Chungha, Ha Sung-woon, and AleXa.

“We want KAMP LA to be the ultimate K-pop experience in all aspects,” says Kim. “US fans have waited so long for great music because of the pandemic — they need to see their favorite artists for the first time in two years in many cases. Everyone in K-pop wants to break into America. There’s a deep connection between Korean culture and LA. This was always the place to start. But we are also going to bring K-pop worldwide with Kamp and Eventim Live Asia. We will go to all markets where K-pop resonates—which is everywhere these days. Kamp isn’t just about mega-concerts or historic events — it’s a culture.”
