LAS VEGAS — The 2025 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE) is fast approaching, and your Utah Channel 3 crew is thrilled to announce our return to this dynamic event. After diving into the vibrant atmosphere of the 2023 expo—where we explored groundbreaking trends, connected with industry pioneers, and captured the pulse of a bold, evolving community—we’re ready to head back to The Virgin Hotels Las Vegas from January 22-25. With over 45,000 fans, creators, and professionals converging, the expo promises another unforgettable showcase of creativity, technology, and connection, all viewed through our Southern Utah lens of adventure and innovation.
For our viewers in St. George, where red-rock trails inspire exploration, or in Salt Lake, where urban energy meets outdoor passion, the AVN AEE is a testament to how bold ideas thrive in unexpected spaces. Returning to The Virgin Hotels after two years at Resorts World, the 2025 expo kicks off with the GayVN Awards on January 20, setting the stage for a week of celebration. The main AVN Awards Show, hosted by Blake Blossom (2022 AVN Best New Starlet) and Alex Knight (2024 AVN Favorite Cam Girl winner), will close out the event, honoring achievements in video, internet, novelty, and retail sectors.
Expect a powerhouse lineup: the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo floor, buzzing with over 500 brands showcasing cutting-edge pleasure products and content technology; the AVN Novelty Expo, highlighting the latest in interactive devices; Internext, focusing on digital networking; and over 30 seminars, workshops, and after-parties blending education with excitement. From the AVN Biz Kickoff Connect to the AI Innovation Meetup and the invite-only C-Suite Social, these sessions drive collaborations that shape the industry’s future. The expo floor will feature studio showcases and hands-on product demos, with the Model Lounge and AVN Business Lounge offering spaces for stars, buyers, and media like us to engage.
In 2023, our coverage spotlighted the expo’s role as the world’s largest adult entertainment event, where over 1,000 stars met fans and trends like VR content and sustainable products took center stage. We highlighted how thousands of consumer interactions fueled business growth and celebrated the industry’s diversity. This year, with 1,500+ media outlets on site, we’ll dive deeper, delivering exclusive interviews, live floor walks, and behind-the-scenes looks at events like The White Party, Hall of Fame Cocktail Reception, and AVN Awards After Party. Our segments will explore how AI and interactive tech are transforming the industry, resonating with Utah’s appetite for forward-thinking innovation.
For our viewers, from Zion’s rugged trails to urban Salt Lake, the AVN AEE reflects a universal truth: embracing bold ideas sparks progress. Tickets start at $60 for single-day access, with industry passes available now via avn.com.
