LOS ANGELES—AVN Media Network is pleased to announce the AVN Show—the largest adult entertainment expo in the world—will return January 21-24, 2026, at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas.
The 28th edition of the longest running annual adult expo will feature five separate events—the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE), Adult Novelty Expo (ANE), GayVN Awards Show, “O” Awards and the 43rd annual AVN Awards Show—in a complete takeover of the Virgin Hotels Las Vegas.
The full week of festivities will bring together a world-class gathering of adult stars and content creators along with more than 500 brands presenting the latest innovations and newest products in the industry.
“We’re already working on making the 2026 AVN Show the best one we’ve ever done,” said AVN Media Network CEO Tony Rios. “We can’t wait to welcome the fans of adult entertainment and our friends and colleagues from around the world back to the AVN Show at this amazing property.”

The Expo will set the stage for the most anticipated night in adult entertainment—the AVN Awards Show—on Saturday, Jan. 24, 2026. The AVN Awards Show will continue the industry’s most iconic tradition, recognizing outstanding achievements in areas of content production, retail and product innovations in the past year.
