Following last year’s acclaimed London run, the iconic gates of Kong – the fabled home of Grammy-winning British band Gorillaz – will open in Downtown L.A. when a celebrated new immersive exhibition House of Kong opens for a limited 4-week run from 26 February to 19 March 2026 at Rolling Greens DTLA.

House of Kong exhibition ticket holders will have exclusive presale access to two very special one-off Gorillaz shows at the Hollywood Palladium taking place on 22 and 23 February. These standalone U.S. dates will see Damon Albarn and the Gorillaz live band joined onstage by special guests to perform the band’s upcoming new album ‘The Mountain’ – in full, from beginning to end – performing album tracks including The Manifesto (feat. Trueno and ProofThe Happy Dictator (feat. Sparks) and latest single The God of Lying (feat. IDLES), all under the watchful eye of Murdoc, Noodle, Russel and 2D.

In collaboration with Jamie Hewlett, Damon Albarn and Eleven Management, the concept behind House of Kong was developed by artist and creative director Stephen Gallagher and his studio, SWEAR.

Gallagher said –  “House of Kong is not a retrospective, it’s an audio-visual artwork; an installation that takes a glance backwards in order to identify the path ahead.” He added – “It’s an honour to have been part of the Gorillaz family over the last 8 years. The outpouring of music and art that I have found myself immersed in, has changed my life. I hope that some of that comes across in this show. This is no ordinary exhibition because in the world of Gorillaz, nothing is ever quite as it seems…”

House of Kong will be open from 10am to 10pm daily, from 26 February to 19 March, 2026 at Rolling Greens DTLA.
 
House of Kong exhibition tickets are priced from $39.50 and are on sale now.
