CHATSWORTH, Calif.—The AVN Novelty Expo will once again return to Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Las Vegas in January, and this time will take over the entire Paradise Tower for its three-day run.
Slated for Jan. 21-23, ANE will play host to numerous pleasure products companies, buyers and distributors. But this time, everyone will be in one central location, making it easier than ever to do business and network.
Exhibitors will set up shop in Festival Hall, Fuel Café and the Paradise Tower lobby, while VIBE—AVN’s specialized meeting program—will take place in three floors of meetings rooms in the tower.
Only members of the industry will be granted access to the Paradise Tower throughout the show. Also, only those in the industry will be able to book rooms in the Paradise Tower.
In addition to the new layout, ANE will also features new opportunities to mix and mingle with colleagues, friends and business partners. Cocktail parties and Speed Networking sessions are in the works, as is a new twist on the “O’ Awards, which mark their sixth installment in January. The awards presentation, which is designed to recognize the best of the best in pleasure products, will be turned into a networking event.
In addition to increasing networking opportunities, AVN will also increase educational opportunities by offering more seminars and workshops than ever before.
“We are really excited about being able to expand our educational program, which has proven to be a big hit among ANE attendees year after year,” said Sherri L. Shaulis, senior editor of pleasure products for AVN. “With more sessions, we will be able to really address the big issues affecting the industry today and get tips and more from the biggest names in the industry.”
The new format for ANE creates the ability to market and sell products or services as well as new ways to network. It also creates a host of creative exhibit and sponsorship opportunities. For more information on these, contact Sara Harter at [email protected].
