Fetish Con Announces Host Hotel, Booths Sold Out for 2017 Show

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Fetish Con organizers have announced its host hotel is booked to maximum capacity, while its vendor, model and exhibitor booths are also sold out. 

Sponsored by Clips4Sale, the 17th annual fetish industry and community trade show will take place on Aug. 10 at the Hilton St. Petersburg Bayfront Hotel, located at 333 1st St. S., St. Petersburg, Fla., 33701.

“It’s truly exciting to see Fetish Con continue to be so well received by industry members, lifestylers and fans,” said event promoter Genesis Lynn. “Each year, we find it’s always a good idea for us to have backup hotel options set up for our late registrants, and each year, our attendees never disappoint us in our estimation. This is looking like our best year yet, with our awards and action-packed schedule of events.”

According to a representative, alternate local lodging options have been arranged, in addition to shuttle service to the Hilton St Petersburg Bayfront Hotel. To view alternate hotels approved by Fetish Con, click here.

Additionally, attendees will see the sophomore return of the Fetish Awards, which highlight and honor those who have been integral to the overall growth of the fetish and alternative industry.
