BURBANK, Calif. — The Adult Novelty Manufacturers Expo (ANME) has announced that moving forward it will hold a single, extended event every July.
The 2024 edition will take place July 15-17.
"Historically hosted biannually in January and July, ANME will now focus on a singular, extended event in July, allowing participants to fully capitalize on the opportunities presented at a consolidated and comprehensive showcase," said a rep. "The decision to shift to an annual format was motivated by a commitment to elevate the ANME experience amidst an ever-changing industry landscape. By concentrating efforts on one expansive event, ANME aims to create a focal point for innovation, networking, and business development within the adult novelty sector."
ANME's founders enthused about the change.
"The July ANME show is the show to attend," said CalExotics CEO Susan Colvin. "It brings together the best of the best in the world of pleasure products for a fun and prosperous event. This year's summer show will be better than ever, with more exhibitors and more opportunities for business growth. We encourage everyone to register early to secure their spot."
Added Nasstoys CEO Elliott Schwartz, "We are all excited to see this renowned and well-attended summer event evolve into an even more beneficial showcase for vendors and buyers of pleasure products as we move into 2024."
According to organizers, the expo is expanding to include a full-day schedule on Wednesday, making what was previously a partial day into a full event day, along with expanded exhibition areas and more sponsorship opportunities.
