EXXXOTICA: 50th Event “Crushes It” in Chicago

Finally – and crucially – advance ticket sales for the Chicago event had trended “50, 60 and 70-percent higher” than the previous year. By the time the show floor’s final booth spaces were sold, “expectations were at an all new high,” the company says.

When the doors finally opened last Friday night at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, the company said “even with the forecast of advance sales, no one anticipated just how big” it would be. The answer? Bigger than ever.

Presented by MyFreeCams, the event’s roster of the adult industry’s top performers, influencers, companies and brands were met Friday night with a crowd that was “the largest of any day, for any city, in the 50-show history of EXXXOTICA,” the company said in a statement released today.

“The weekend continued to crush it, with an all-new record set for the most attendees ever for the adult expo for any of the dozen or so cities where the expo has landed,” Three Expo Events said in the statement.

“Tens of thousands came to meet their favorite stars,” the company added. “EXXXOTICA pulled out all the stops this show to bring in the past, present and future of adult such as Lisa Ann, Stormy Daniels, Tera Patrick, Violet Myers, Adriana Chechik, Katie Morgan, Alexis Texas, Lexi Belle, Alex Coal, Evan Stone, Joanna Angel, Small Hands, Reya Sunshine, Rocky Emerson, April O’Neil, Nikki Dial, RubberDoll, Christy Canyon, Barrett Blade, the Double Dose Twins, Ember Snow, Vicki Chase, Ginger Lynn, Micky Lynn, Misty Stone, Spencer Bradley, Lacy Lennon, Kenzie Taylor, Kazumi, Jada Stevens, Rebel Rhyder, Christiana, Cinn, Lily Lou, Abigaiil Morris, Sammy Torres, Kiki Klout, Marina Valmont, Jessie Saint, Lauren Phillips, and even wrestling legend Rob Van Dam and Katie Forbes.”

The 50th EXXXOTICA was also attended by hundreds of other cam models, influencers and content companies hosted by companies like Loyal Fans, MyFreeCams, Chaturbate, Tadpole Studios, Galaxy Publicity, Elite Talent Direct and others. The Spotlight booth, sponsored by Loyal Fans, hosted over two-dozen stars at their booth – and Three Expo Events noted the booth “was just one stop for fans who packed the convention center.”

Sponsored by Chaturbate, the EXXXOTICA Entertainment Stage featured a lineup highlighted by feature dance performances by fan favorites like RubberDoll, the Stallion Male Revue, Reya Sunshine and Christiana Cinn. The stage also offered performances by Angela Eve, Claire Fae, Circuit Mom, She is Hera, Femme Fenix and iHeartBBW Fashion Show, among others.

There was also the Team Texass twerk contest, which “drew a jam-packed crowd to see Alexis Texas getting those booties to shake,” as well as the crowning of a new Ms. EXXXOTICA and the Pole Dance Championship title.

EXXXOTICA’s Seminar Series, sponsored by Bad Dragon, “hosted standing room only audiences for seminars led by the show’s resident sexpert and lauded educator, Tyomi Morgan, as well as a roster of entertaining speakers ranging from educators to entertainers,” the company added. “Over 40 seminars took place in the multiple areas with topics such as swinging, BDSM, finding the right sex toys, how cannabis can improve your love life and book readings and musings by legends like Lisa Ann, Katie Morgan and Evan Stone.”

The CouplesX Lifestyle Experience, sponsored by Kasidie.com, hosted couples who came to “learn more about the lifestyle as well as meet other like-minded folks who were just like them,” Three Expo Events said. “And EXXXOTICA’s Dungeon Experience was filled from start to finish with folks who wanted to learn more about the world of BDSM and learn how to play safe as they take a walk on the kinky side.”

The event’s Official VIP after parties took place “all around the Chicagoland area kept the sexy party going until last call.”

“Whether fans went to top gentlemen’s club like Heavenly Bodies to check out all-star lineups featuring hosts Violet Myers and Alexis Texas with performances by Reya Sunshine and Ember Show, or checked out other spots such as Rick’s Cabaret, Club 390 and Blackjacks to catch feature shows by Lauren Phillips, Katie Morgan, Christiana Cinn or Rubberdoll,” the company added. “EXXXOTICA’s host hotel also had sold out celebrations both nights with adult legends Lisa Ann and Tera Patrick along with the stars from Chaturbate.”

“This one will be tough to top!” said J. Handy, the creator and Event Director of EXXXOTICA. “We can’t thank all of the sponsors, stars, companies, and especially the fans for helping cement our place as the top adult event in the country. But we’ll always try to keep EXXXOTICA growing, and you never know what’s going to come next. It’s been a wild ride, but we’re excited for the rest of this year and many years to come.”

Other sponsors for EXXXOTICA Chicago included TadpoleXXX, DoubleDose Twins, Chazzy.com, Heavenly Bodies Gentlemen’s Club, Wakit Grinders, Ultimate Product Distributors, Ultimate Honey Girls, YNOT and Kinky Kollege.

At the show, Three Expo Events also revealed a “new chapter” for the EXXXOTICA brand: EXXXOTICA at Sea, a cruise experience slated to set sail in March, 2024, aboard the Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady.

“Fans and stars were equally excited about the 4-day cruise which departs Miami on March 6, 2024 with stops in Key West and Bimini, Bahamas,” the company said. “Featuring exclusive EXXXOTICA events, five-star dining, drink packages, shows, gambling and much more, fans are urged to get more info and to reserve their cabins today by going to exxxoticaexpo.com/at-sea.”

Next up for EXXXOTICA is the show’s return to Miami, which is coming July 14-16. After that, it will be the event’s 15th anniversary in New Jersey (November 3-5) and then it’s back to the Washington, DC area (December 1-3).
