VidCon Australia is bringing a wave of huge content creators to Melbourne’s Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Social video superstars Liza Koshy, Baby Ariel, Caspar Lee, Alex Wassabi, Jc Caylen, and Kian Lawley have been added to the VidCon Australia line-up alongside Aunty Donna, Rachel Ballinger, Alan Tsibulya, Rachel Aust, Mamrie Hart, How To Cook That, Jenn Im, Soothing Sista, The Odd1sOut, and Sarah’s Day — an unprecedented group of 17 new stars joining fans and industry players to perform, inspire, meet and talk all things online video at VidCon Australia 2018.
These latest names join an already huge weekend featuring local stars such as SketchShe, Tanya Hennessy, Christian Hull and How Ridiculous.
VidCon, the world’s largest celebration of online video, first made its debut in Australia in 2017 and has just completed its successful 9th year in the US.
Liza Koshy
There's no denying that Liza Koshy is one of the world's top digital creators. She'll return after a successful appearance in 2017 with her new show 'Liza On Demand' as well as experience being the co-host of 'Double Dare' on Nickelodeon along with hosting MTV's 'TRL'.
Also joining this final round of creators is Baby Ariel (with 41.5 million followers across her social media), Gabbie Hanna (made famous on short-form video app Vine), Caspar Lee (boasting one billion video views and counting), Kian and JC (vloggers JC Kaylen and Kian Lawley), Rachel Ballinger (sister of Colleen Ballinger – or, Miranda Sings – with 3.5 million subscribers and followers) and a bunch of others.
The social media conference will once again see Melbourne become the meeting place for thousands of content creators for a weekend of learning and networking across a three track programme – Community, Creator and Industry.
