Get ready because VidCon 2023 is just around the corner, and the excitement in the air is absolutely contagious! Industry professionals and content creators will gather in Anaheim from June 21- 24 to share the latest industry trends, updates and lifehacks, exchange experiences, and connect with fellow influencers.

A Few Words About VidCon

VidCon's captivating journey began in 2010 as a gathering for YouTube creators. Since then, it has blossomed into a global phenomenon, uniting creators, industry pros, and passionate fans. In 2018, VidCon's growth soared even higher when it joined forces with Paramount Global, expanding its influence. 

Throughout the years, VidCon has experienced phenomenal growth, with attendance skyrocketing. What started as a modest gathering has transformed into a global sensation, attracting tons of enthusiasts, industry leaders, and trendsetters. VidCon now takes place multiple times a year in various corners of the world — from Anaheim to Baltimore to Mexico and beyond — serving as a nexus where digital media's brightest minds converge. 

In 2022, VidCon also celebrated its return to live events with the 11th annual VidCon Anaheim — welcoming 50,000 attendees and over 100 brand exhibitors. 

AIR Media-Tech has been a part of VidCon for several years now, sharing our expertise and experiences with fellow influencers and brands. It's an exhilarating opportunity to connect, learn, and shape the future of online content creation alongside the movers and shakers of the digital entertainment realm.

We’re thrilled to announce we’ll be joining VidCon 2023 to share some fresh insights into the creator economy.
