YNOT – From now through July 1, members of the adult entertainment industry may register online to attend the next Internext trade show at no charge. The 2013 incarnation will take place Jan. 13-15 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

The 12th annual event will serve as the kickoff for an entire week of adult entertainment trade shows in Sin City. The 30th Annual AVN Adult Entertainment Expo will follow at the same location Jan. 16-19, occurring concurrently with AVN Novelty Expo and AEE Fan Fest. The AVN Awards gala will take place Jan. 19.

Each year, AVN’s group of trade shows and consumer events attracts thousands of company owners, adult webmasters, performers and fans from every corner of the globe.

“Despite a still-struggling world economy, no industry is better equipped, or more able, to take advantage of a global marketplace that continues to present as many opportunities as it does challenges,” said AVN Media Network Chief Executive Officer Theo Sapoutzis. “Resilient, thick-skinned and technologically proficient, online porn professionals always bring their game face to Internext.”

Although early registration is free, attendees who register between July 2 and Sept. will pay $150 for full-access badges. From Sept. 2 through Dec. 1, badges will cost $200. Thereafter and at the door, registration will set attendees back $250.

Room rates start at $69; rooms may be booked online. Those wishing to book a reservation by phone may call the hotel direct at 800-693-7625 and use the code “AVN.”

“We are very happy to be returning to the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, especially considering the extremely positive feedback we got following the 2012 extravaganza,” Sapoutzis said. “Starting with Internext and continuing right through to the AVN Awards, the venue provided the perfect setting for anything we wanted to do. We’re working hard to make sure 2013 improves upon last year, and we look forward to celebrating AVN’s 30th Anniversary with all of our friends.”
