PHILADELPHIA — Exxxotica rolled out new websites today for its confirmed 2016 expos in Chicago and Edison, N.J., and Columbus, Ohio.
Exxxotica organizers are still waiting for a federal judge to decide whether its Dallas show, which was slated for next month, will go on.
Exxxotica is suing the City of Dallas, claiming that banning their event from the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center is unconstitutional and violates their First Amendment rights.
But Dallas has filed court documents defending the ban. It claims event Exxxotica organizers misrepresented the amount of nudity and sexually-oriented activity at last year’s expo.
Exxxotic, however, fired back with a filing arguing the city knew all the details about the event.
“The Dallas battle has really underscored the importance of defending the First Amendment and we’re really looking forward to winning that fight,” said J. Handy, director of Exxxotica. “We’re also looking forward to continuing to produce events in cities who have always supported us, and expanding into new untapped markets.”
Exxxotica advance ticket sales are now open on the location-specific websites below:
- Exxxotica’s sixth show in the Chicago area will take place July 8-10 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Ill.
