Gracing the convention — which will be held from June 20 to 23 in Anaheim, Calif. — are firmly established digital stars like Rosanna Pansino, Mark ‘Markiplier’ Fischbach, Joey Graceffa, and Justine ‘iJustine’ Ezarik as well as rising vloggers who are comparatively newer to the scene, including David DobrikDe’arra & Ken, Stef Sanjati, and Safiya Nygaard. You can check out the first round of 87 Featured Creators — who will speak on panels, lead workshops, perform comedy sketches and music, and more — right here

In addition to the ninth annual VidCon U.S. — for which tickets are available now — the company will also host a second round of international events next year in both Amsterdam and Australia.
