The Annual ED EXPO, produced by ED (Exotic Dancer) Publications and established in 1993, is the only convention and tradeshow in the world for the adult nightclub industry. It draws over 1,200 attendees — including club owners, general managers, club staff, and entertainers — and is not open to the general public. The four-day program features educational and motivational seminars, a 100-booth business-to-business tradeshow, networking events, nightly parties, and the Annual Adult Nightclub & Exotic Dancer Awards Show (known as The ED’s Awards).
