It is remarkable that the fan figures for this years event exceeded those of last year even though the Expo was not open to the public during the first day, as it was in years past.
Attendance was not the only area of growth for the 2005 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo. Overall exhibit sales broke the 300-company mark, a significant increase over the 252 exhibitors that participated at the 2004 Expo.

The adult entertainment industry is undoubtedly driven by its devoted fans, said Paul Fishbein, President of Adult Video News. But the widening scope of the industry has injected new enthusiasm from entrepreneurs looking to capitalize on rising demand for adult products. This new entrepreneurial energy will foster competition and raise the standards of quality for adult entertainment in what will be a successful and prosperous New Year for the industry.
