LOS ANGELES, Oct. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Complex announced it is partnering with Ray-Ban Meta to put the new Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses in fans' hands before they hit shelves on October 13, inside an interactive listening lounge at ComplexCon in the Los Angeles Convention Center on Saturday, October 3 and Sunday, October 4.
