With only four days to go before the show begins, scheduled for July 12-14 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, attendance is expected to draw hundreds of adult business professionals to the popular Las Vegas destination.
With a lineup of leading edge informational seminars, daily cocktail parties, poolside cabana networking and an ample list of sponsored evening and after-hours parties, the XBIZ Summer ’06 Forum is expected to quickly become a preferred yearly conference for the adult industry.

“We’re feeling really good going into this event, and we are confident that the show will knock your socks off,” XBIZ Sales and Marketing Manager Kristen Kaye said. “My sincerest gratitude goes out to all the sponsors for helping to make this happen. Without you, it wouldn’t have been possible.”
