HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — In a move that’s poised to reverberate across the pleasure industry, XBIZ is set to launch Vibe Expo, weaving together the best elements of its B2B and B2C events to deliver a groundbreaking fusion of business, entertainment and educational opportunities — all in the pulsating heart of Hollywood, from January 11-14.

Set to unfold at the luxurious Loews Hollywood hotel, the one-of-a-kind “super show” is poised to serve as a dynamic playground where attendees can expect an immersive experience for both business and pleasure. 

One of the event’s distinct features will be the dedicated business and consumer hours, designed to maximize deal-making and promotional opportunities. Based on their preference, manufacturers and retail buyers will engage in pre-arranged and/or impromptu meetings, whether in the show floor booths or the venue’s luxe private suites. During consumer hours, attendees of all stripes, including members of the pleasure community, will be engrossed in a vibrant, inclusive space, wherein they can engage with a wide range of brands and influencers.

With the goal of broadening horizons, Vibe Expo organizers have set out to go beyond the boundaries of the pleasure space by integrating cannabis goods, and other complementary products, into the show mix.

For industry participants, the crowning event will be the 2024 XBIZ Honors — the pleasure industry’s biggest night, celebrating outstanding achievements across the business.

Stay tuned to XBIZ for upcoming Vibe Expo announcements.

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — TheFlourishXXX has released the debut episode of the company’s new VR series, “Meta-XXX-Verse,” starring Kira Noir and Will Pounder.

The scene also features Codey Steele, Aften Opal, Isiah Maxwell and Mena Carlisle.

“The fun begins with a group of couples in a virtual experience house,” the synopsis reveals. “Kira Noir and Isiah Maxwell are delighted they’re not the only ones when they see Will Pounder and Mena Carlisle enter. The group sits around in a circle and connects via VR goggles to another world. Codey is already connected as a host and surprises them, kicking off a threesome of Kira Noir, Codey, and Will Pounder. Together the tasty trio takes sex to limits unseen in porn.”

Site honcho TJ shared his inspiration for the series.

“I had this epiphany of doing VR completely different from what the industry was used to,” he explained. “I had been a fan of ‘The Matrix’ and ‘Inception’ movies, and I am a very out-of-the-box thinker.”

“We are creating a ‘play area’ in the Metaverse itself, so I can link the two down the road,” he added. “If I envision it, it can happen.” 

Future episodes will feature Melody Marks, Lolly Dames, Cheryl Cameron, Lexi Lore, Nicole Doshi, Rocky Emerson and Rob Piper. 

“Meta-XXX-Verse VR Episode 1″ is streaming on TheFlourishXXX.
