ComplexCon 2024 Day 1 Recap: Celebs, Exclusive Drops, Performances, Conversations, and More

Day one of ComplexCon 2024 (also known as CactusCon ) was one for the books.

Complex's Las Vegas takeover began on Saturday, November 16 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, where thousands filled the venue on the hunt for exclusive sneaker drops, streetwear rarities, immersive activations and celebrity appearances. With Travis Scott as artistic director, the Ragers got a firsthand view of the artist's curated Cactus Colosseum, copped customized jerseys, sipped on free Cacti drinks, and more CactusCon-only activities.

Plenty of notable names in music, fashion and streaming stopped through ComplexCon, like Big Sean , who launched his Don Life x Chips Ahoy! collaboration with an assist from his dad, James Anderson, and dance troupe Jabbawockeez.

While samples of Chips Ahoy! Big Chewy Cookies were given out on the marketplace floor, those who missed (or attended) this year's Family Style Food Festival got their hands on eats from Trill Burgers, Pink Box Donuts, Lotus of Siam and Rokstar Chicken to name a few.
