For the past several years, Erotica LA has been an annual summertime tradition at the LA Convention Center, with Conan O'Brien on his short-lived edition of The Tonight Show even mentioning its existence. But while that adult convention is not happening this year, in its place this weekend is eXXXotica Los Angeles.
"EXXXOTICA Los Angeles, presented by HotMovies.com, is an adult entertainment fan's dream come true, with over 100 adult stars, both past and present, scheduled to appear," according to their press release.
