MELBOURNE, Australia — Sexpo Australia founder David Ross has launched his new adult lifestyle expo, SexEx.
The new event will take place at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC), February 6-8, 2026; the expo will also have an event in Sydney later in 2026.
“While I expected the public would be happy to embrace a new name, I was less sure how exhibitors and potential investors would feel about a new event after so many were left out of pocket as a result of Sexpo’s collapse,” said Ross. “I need not have worried, as exhibitor demand has exceeded the space available at the Melbourne Pavilion, and after having secured a further AUD600k funding — valuing the SexEx startup at AUD750k — we have moved the event to the larger MCEC venue.”
According to Ross, exhibitors who paid a deposit for the original event and can't make the new dates are eligible for a full refund.
“Exhibitors and visitors can be sure that my years of experience running the Sexpo events will see me produce SexEx in the same manner I did when up to 68,000 people flocked to the MCEC to see all the entertainment, as well as exhibitors demonstrating the latest products and services,” said Ross.
