Con-Con Hong Kong IP Festival Set for April With Anime, Music Lineup


Medialink Group Limited is launching Con-Con Hong Kong 2026, billed as Asia’s first comprehensive intellectual property extravaganza, set for April 4-5 at AsiaWorld-Expo.

The inaugural two-day gathering aims to merge IP-focused programming with a large-scale music festival and immersive theatrical experiences, creating what organizers describe as a cross-sector cultural platform. The event will spotlight local Hong Kong creations alongside Japanese and international properties spanning collectibles, anime, music, fashion, art and design.

Artist Coin Parking Delivery will serve as event creative director, bringing experience from collaborations across animation, cosmetics, watches, sports apparel and K-pop to shape the visual identity and on-site experiences.

The festival’s musical component features chart-topping J-pop artists, performers known for anime theme songs, and prominent Hong Kong pop acts, though specific talent has not yet been revealed. Programming will include experiential IP zones, world premiere anime screenings, fan meet-and-greets, limited-edition collectibles, industry panel discussions, and dedicated exhibition space for emerging Hong Kong creators.

An immersive black box theater element is designed to facilitate interaction between creators, industry professionals and fans across multiple entertainment sectors including games, lifestyle, sports and food.

Parent company Medialink Group Limited, headquartered in Hong Kong since 1994, operates across Greater China, Japan and Southeast Asia with a portfolio exceeding 1,000 pop culture and anime properties. The company’s business encompasses content distribution, brand licensing, merchandise rights and location-based entertainment.

Medialink’s digital footprint includes 11 YouTube channels under the Ani-One brand, collectively drawing over 10 million subscribers and 2.4 billion views. The company also operates Asia-focused animation channels Ani-Mi and e-commerce platform Ani-Mall.
