KCON 2014: Teen Top And B1A4 Added To The Artist Roster For 2-Night Concert Event, Join Girls' Generation, CNBLUE, IU & More

The lineup for KCON 2014 just got a healthy dose of boy bands!

On June 27, during the KCON Live Chat, where information regarding the US's largest K-Pop event is revealed directly to the fans, two additional artist announcements were made.

Popular K-Pop boy bands B1A4 and Teen Top are joining the ranks for this year's two-night, star-studded concert event.

The two idol groups join the conventions concert lineup that also includes world-famous girl group Girls' Generation, idol rock band CNBLUE, hit-making soloist IU, and idol groups BTS and VIXX.

The convention, which will take place in Los Angeles this August, expanded the live performances for this year's event to two nights of K-Pop concerts for the fans. As with KCON 2013, this year's night cap live shows will be produced by Mnet's performance program M!Countdown.

KCON 2014 will not be the first time Teen Top has performed for US fans. In March of this year, the group brought their 'High Kick' world tour stateside and played three shows in New York, Los Angeles, and San Jose. The group also made their way to Canada for an additional North American performance in Toronto.

Teen Top's foray in the western hemisphere was also notable for being the first K-Pop concert tour to be successfully crowdsourced, having raised the money to pre-fund the shows through a new platform, krowdpop.

Teen Top also attended last year's KCON, where they performed for thousands of screaming fans.

B1A4 is making their first KCON appearance this year, as well as their first performance in the US.

Last month, Mnet America began airing Go! B1A4, a reality show that documents the group's activities in the US.

Fans interested in attending this year's KCON can get tickets starting on July 1. Combo packages involving access to the the convention and the talks and events throughout the weekend, as well as attendance to the idol-filled concerts will be available through the official KCON website. On July 3, individual tickets for the live show will also go on sale.

KCON 2014 will take place in downtown Los Angeles at the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena on August 9 and 10.
