The Kickback is a next-gen summit at the intersection of gaming, music, and creator culture. It’s part block party, part panel, part digital renaissance, built for the community that never saw themselves fully represented in one place. Expect live performances, a competitive gaming lounge, panel convos that go deeper than buzzwords, and a crowd that gets it.
If you’re a gamer, a creator, an entrepreneur, or someone building community through culture, this is your space. Whether you’re deep in the game dev grind, running up numbers on your content, designing drop culture, or organizing in your city, The Kickback brings together people who think and build like you. You don’t have to be famous to be fire.
While most events center brands, this one centers you. The Kickback was built to spotlight creators who live at the edge of culture, the ones who blend anime and fashion, Twitch and trap, fandom and business. We’re not here to talk down to the community. We are the community.
We want you to meet your Community. Whether you’re introverted or always networking, we’ve designed the space for real connections: post-panel linkups, creator meetups, squad gaming, and plenty of “yo, I follow you!!” moments. You’ll leave with new collaborators, friends, or maybe even your next business partner.
This is going to be an amazing day. Think: conversations that hit, a gaming lounge with real energy, creators going live IRL, and a concert that feels like a cultural reset. It’s one day, packed with live moments, community gems, and creator-first experiences. Panels by day. Music by night. Vibes all the way through.
DONT' MISS THIS!!! The Kickback is where a community that usually exists in pieces comes together in full force. If you miss it, you’re not just missing an event, you’re missing the moment where creators like you took center stage and said: we’re here, and we’re building something different.
