Watch the Sex Show with me!

[lady kassandra]

I am heading to Edmonton this weekend (a working vacation) and just found out that the Taboo Sex Show is on! I have attended the Vancouver show the last five years or so and am wondering how the Edmonton show will compare.

I have enjoyed lectures, entertainment and seeing new products at this trade show, as well as a lot of what I've seen before.

If you would be interested in checking it out (or me *wink*) PM me.

I'd also love to hear what you think of the show if you do check it out.

I have heard the show is good, but have not been able to match up the schedule. After seeing your post, I know that I now have something to do on Saturday before I fly off on vacation.

That's really interesting. I did not know that it is coming up so soon in Edmonton after the one in Calgary ended.

I have never been to any taboo shows, but have heard of both good and bad things about it. Maybe I will check it out, thanks for the link.

I've been to the Vancouver show twice. The same company organizes the show in Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver. A lot of the entertainment, presenters and exhibitors are the same at all 3 shows, the only difference is the venue.

IMO, it's not worth the price of admission to look at mostly overpriced and cheap merchandise. If you know where to look, you find a lot of the stuff online at half the price. An example, I remember seeing a company selling a Hitachi Magic Wand at last year's Vancouver show for $120. You can find the HMV for under $40 at a lot of places in the U.S.

There are some deals, mostly from the small local vendors who make their own product. As with any trade show, you can often get free tickets from the exhibitors.

I went a few years ago, had a great time. When is this years ? I'm guessing that it's some time in January. Does anyone know ?

Yeah it usually hits Vancouver early in the new year.

The Vancouver show is January 15th-18th at Canada Place.

When I've been to the Vancouver shows, I noticed there is a lot of standard stuff you'd find elsewhere. Some of the prices are good; some are marked up. I generally know the ballpark prices of what I want so I don't pay much over the going rate.

The show tends to be a great venue for people to see what a sex shop offers without having to go into a traditional sex shop. The event has also been becoming more mainstream so less people are intimidated by going to it.

RE: Toy Prices
I have found lower prices through US web sites, but add the shipping and exchange, then the exhorbitant duty (sometimes more that the cost of the item itself!) it may not be worth it. The Canadian border does not seem to like allowing sexual items in. They once charged me $30 duty for $20 of condoms. This is pretty common from what I hear
