Wonder if those rumors from a month or two ago were actually true about the venue being in Orleans :)

Ive never been to Orleans yet so itd be cool if it was :)

Plus i get to see my secret lover Billy LOL

Oh and this..

What dates is Internext in 2006? I didn't think that had been decided yet?

They havent been made 'public' yet ;)

A search on some of the SE's reveal results for various sites though stating dates from around the 5th Jan onwards.

Would be nice to know the dates soon though so we can actually book a room in the hotel the show is being based at, whichever hotel that may be, Famingo, V, Wynn, Mandalay.

I just found some really good rates for Vegas hotels in January too, the deal is though you need to register as a CES attendee to get them and save upwards of $200 a night on published suite rates :awinky:

The rumors I had heard was Nawlins instead of Hollywood for the summer. Not Nawlins instead of Vegas for the winter. Either way, just rumors, so far.

But I seriously doubt AVN would ever abandon Vegas or not have the webmaster show run into the consumer pornstar show. I'm betting the winter show will still be at Mandalay.

But the LAST thing we want is to be there during CES. I'd rather spend $200 a night extra than deal with crowded restaurants, hour long taxi lines, etc. <_<

Will ya give me 10:1 odds on that Harry? ;)

I stand by my earlier report. Keep your eyes on new orleans. Aly avoided this the last time I posted it... If that tells you anything.

They can hold the show wherever they want, but my ass and my wallet will be in Vegas at some point in January.

I wouldn't mind a summer/spring/fall show in Nawlins, but the winter show belongs in Vegas. Period. Everyone looks forward to it, it's become part of their routine.

If AVN is stupid enough to abandon it, it'll be a race to see who'll step up to slip a smaller low frills show in the January time slot in Vegas....hopefully a week or so after CES instead of bumping right up against it.

god I hope that isn't true, new oreleans in the one city in the US I have no desire to visit again...as sick as I am of vegas, new orleans would be a horrible option

plus, I love the fact that internext and avn always backed up against each other...go to one to sell wholesale and meet your online client, go to the second and sell to your fans and surfers....plus you have the players ball, avn awards...it all just works out to nicely and together to move it now

Good stay out of NO

More food, fun and good times for me

you know they have food fun and good times in a lot of cities, right?

:burn:

My vote is for vegas too. New Orleans just doesn't have the same appeal.

The New Orleans show was the best one I've attended been to them all since '99)

But in the summer? Not a chance

awesome, i need to make a deposit anyway ;)

It's an emigrate/immigrate thing.

New Orleans sucks, there is a reason MikeAI moved out

New Orleans sucks to live, but it is great place to visit or have a conventions.

The problem is the 2 porn conventions in NO were poorly timed. ( probably because they people throwing them were being cheap).

The 2 key times NOT to have a convention in NO:

1) Summer
2) During large events that attract democrats. ( Soul Bowl, Essence Fest, etc...)

The Family knows the real story on this.

I seriously doubt that AVN would move the January show away from Vegas. That would make no real sense from the perspective of exhibitors doing both shows, and it would only hurt their business.

For 2006, Internext will be in Vegas again - Jan. 5-7 at the Venetian. AEE (the big AVN expo) is doing the usual thing in January and then a second show in New Orleans in May.

CES is 1/5-1/8. I'm going to start making dinner reservations now and finding someone with a party bus to drive me around the whole show :)

May in NOLA should be very nice! :okthumb:

Looks like someone combined 2 shows to save money....
Thanks AVN! Im glad to see all the feedback about not booking as close to CES earlier this year was taken to heart.

Lovely time frame for the show.. even Treasure Island will cost $270 per night for a room.

Mirage is $430.

Many of us on Oprano can afford these rates without a problem, but this really does screw most of the smaller webmasters who normally like to attend this show.

Mmm.. maybe I'll get a big ass suite again and just let a few webmistresses stay with me to cut down on their costs. :yowsa:

I call the TUB!

yes, I'm sure you'll be able to get updated info at avnexpo.com when available.

:rolleyes:

Even though most os uf can afford those rates, why pay them when we dont have to?

http://www.cesweb.org/attendees/travel/hotel.asp

Some reasonable discounts are availabe for CES attendees and, registration for the CES show is free :awinky:

So.... the 2006 Summer show is going to be in May?

Love to hear that since, I am in the middle of contract neogiations for June 8 - 10th............. My usual May/June time period.

I think thats the video show for New Orleans.

Yeh, MY BAD .... I almost had heart failure! B)

CES and AVN at the same time ??
i likda like that idea, i can make it to both and not spend 8 days in vegas

But why is AVN back in venitian ??

I'd read it the same exact way, Sharpie.

Now I'm even more confused that Slav picked up on the Venentian line. Or was that a mistake? Huh? :blink:

Harry,

I have the answer for you right here...

http://internextconference.com/sm/

An aptly named event, given your question :yowsa:

Lets also not forget, AVNs MAJOR competitor when it comes to shows, CCBill held their Phoenix Forum at the start of April this year and, rumor has it that next years show is planned around the April / May time, make of that what you will $0.02

you know, new orleans is open aqll year. in fact, im standing right in it, and internext isnt even here!

Really? I didnt know that LOL

Actually we may be heading across to N.O sometime towards the end of the year :)

Yeah, this sucks. AVN is obviously catering to the big video players and themselves by effectively combining the two shows (yeah, i know different hall, but still...). Webmasters be damned. I also fear we may see a lot of surfers on the floor.

Cost isn't the major issue here for me. Hell, I've never exactly pinched pennies at a Vegas show. However, I do worry about how the cost and selection of these dates will impact the attendance. If these guys are whining about $300 for Florida, they're gonna scream like raped apes when they see what the accomodations in Vegas during CES cost.

Vegas also just positively sucks during CES. Cab lines for days, it's tough to even grab a limo. Every restaurant is packed and if you dont make reservations early for the popular joints, forget it. Dont even think about a buffet line. And if you wanna gamble, plan on $100 a hand at any of the major hotels at night.

Re: Is The January Internext Being Held In New Orleans
 

Humm NO in May ?? Hopefully early May !

Re: Is The January Internext Being Held In New Orleans
 

wow, i just found out it is 100% confirmed...

internext vegas 2006 is 01/05-01/08
AVN Vegas is 01/05-01/08
CES Vegas is 01/05-01/08

wow, this kind of sucks ass, but i guess it is kind of cool...we just made a decision not to attend internext and stick mainly with AVN Expo, so it will be nice to be there at the same time as all the internet folks...plus we can bounce from show to show to show

sucks for those that are used to each show following the other though, now if you want to go to both porn shows, you will have to get 2 booths, 2 crews, 2 sets of models, etc....twice the cost

avn is going to see less money overall on this one, cause some people won't want to set up at both shows at the same time
