HYBE has dropped the second wave of artists set to take the stage at the 2026 Weverse Con Festival, and it’s shaping up to be one of the most diverse editions yet.
The new lineup adds 10 acts across different eras of K-pop, including KWON JIN AH, KIM JAE JOONG, LUCY, BOYNEXTDOOR, AMPERS&ONE, Apink, YOON SAN-HA, TWS, 82MAJOR, and HWANG MIN HYUN.
The latest reveal highlights the festival’s multi-generational DNA. Veteran artists like KIM JAE JOONG and Apink bring years of legacy to the stage, while bands such as LUCY continue to expand K-pop’s sonic palette with their distinct instrumental-driven sound.
Meanwhile, rising names including BOYNEXTDOOR, AMPERS&ONE, TWS, and 82MAJOR represent the genre’s next wave, having steadily built global momentum through tours and festival appearances.
In a statement, HYBE shared that the festival aims to create a shared space for fans across fandoms:
“Through a diverse multi-generational lineup, Weverse Con aims to offer a unique experience where fans can come together through music.”
The company also teased a special Tribute Stage in the final lineup announcement, set to honour legendary musicians who have shaped K-pop’s history — further reinforcing the festival’s cross-generational concept.
The 2026 Weverse Con Festival is set to take place on 6 to 7 June at KSPO DOME and 88 Lawn Field in Seoul, South Korea. The final lineup will be announced in April, alongside more details on tickets and festival programming.
More information will be available via the official Weverse Con Festival website and the Weverse Zone community.
