About Annual Gentlemen's Club Owners Expo
2012 Gentlemen’s Club Owners EXPO will be the “20-Year Class Reunion” Show
The 2012 Annual Gentlemen’s Club Owners EXPO—which marks the 20-Year Anniversary of the industry’s annual convention and tradeshow—will be held August 26-29, 2012, at the luxurious Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. The show days are technically Monday to Wednesday, August 27-29, but there is early registration for attendees on Sunday, August 26.
“Each year the EXPO has a theme, from 2008’s ‘Year of the General Manager’ theme to 2011’s ‘Generation Next’ theme,” notes ED Publisher Don Waitt. “Since the upcoming EXPO marks two decades of the convention, it just makes sense to go with the ‘EXPO Class Reunion’ theme. By maintaining our existing base of attendees and exhibitors and then drawing in those industry pros from the past who may have been AWOL for recent shows, we expect to mix the old and the new for our largest EXPO ever.”
The Annual Gentlemen’s Club Owners EXPO is the only national convention and tradeshow for the multi-billion-dollar adult nightclub industry, and is produced by ED Publications, the industry’s trade magazine for the past 20 years. The EXPO draws more than 3,000 attendees, including over 1,700 club owners, general managers, and club personnel from individual clubs and club chains. Other EXPO attendees include liquor, beer and wine distributors; food and beverage companies; club furnishings and bar products companies; attorneys, architects, club brokers and insurance specialists; and sound, lighting and staging companies.
