VidCon 2015 was held at Anaheim Convention center in Anaheim, CA Thursday, July 23- Saturday, July 25 from 8am- midnight each day. Over the past three days, it gave over 300 of the most influential YouTube celebrities the opportunity to empower and connect with 2,000 of their most dedicated fans through meet-and-greets, keynotes, fireside chats and much more!
It has been said that we are in the early, defining moments of an extremely powerful global force, that is online video, and VidCon strives to be the physical center of that revolution. To help get this message across, this year, the convention expanded their mission to educate individuals about the power behind online video content by adding three more stages to their community track programming to ensure a better understanding about something they’re so passionate about.
VidCon always has a large variety of online celebrities at their event, making it easier to appeal to everyone and to expresses the fact that they want everyone to be comfortable in their own skin and be proud of whom they are without judgments.
