âAfter almost two years of living digitally, we knew that the return to ComplexCon was going to be the first opportunity for our community to come back together and it had to be special,â Neil Wright, Head of Experiential at Complex Networks, explained earlier this year when announcing the festivalâs 2021 return. âWeâre excited to bring together a diverse mix of familiar names and faces from all over the world for the first time in a long time, but also allow room for discovery in a safe and curated environment.â
Below, weâve put together a handy rundown of everything you need to know before attending, including how to get last-minute tickets and more.
