VidCon also holds in-person and other events worldwide, with 2021 events planned in Abu Dhabi, Australia, London, Mexico City, and Singapore. VidCon Now is a weekly online series that offers virtual concerts and performances, panel discussions, online meet and greets, and other types of interactive events. It was created in response to the cancellation of the 2020 in-person event. How to Register and Attend VidCon As soon as the date is finalized, VidCon will provide a digital ticket purchasing option for anyone who wants to attend. Are There Big Announcements at the Event?

Instead, it's focused on helping video creators get started or expand and connect them to those in the industry who can help them get bigger and better at what they do.
