VidCon to Leave Anaheim as the Creator Convention Links Up With Lions

VidCon is leaving Anaheim after sixteen years in Southern California. The flagship event for digital creators and fans is merging with LIONS, the parent company of the Cannes Lions marketing festival. This strategic move creates VidCon x LIONS Creators as part of a broader North America expansion strategy. LIONS aims to integrate VidCon into its creator-focused events to strengthen its global presence, marking a significant shift for the convention's long-term operational home and organizational structure.
