Sexpo 2016 Celebrating 10 years – now bigger and better than ever! Sexpo, Africa’s largest human sensuality and lifestyle expo, and one of South Africa’s favourite annual exhibitions, is back – and it’s bigger and better than ever. Its 2016 incarnation sees a new date, new venue and the introduction of some new touches. Sean Newman, managing director, Sexpo “It’s our tenth anniversary, so we’re really excited about this year’s Sexpo, which has been remixed, revamped and reimagined to continue to appeal to an ever-growing and seemingly insatiable market, as well as attract new visitors.”
“Some key changes have been effected,” says Newman, “all of them designed to meet current and future needs, as well as address previous input from visitors over the years. So, to start, we have a new venue. Our new home, Johannesburg Expo Centre, Nasrec, allows the entire exhibition to take place under one roof.” “We’re also introducing a limited access ladies-only area, a safe space where women can shop and explore their sensuality – complete with wine bar – away from peering eyes and male input. But, we haven’t forgotten the guys, either – we’re also introducing the Ultimate Man Cave this year, a space that’s dedicated to select male-interest lifestyle products; it also features a bar stocked with the finest Kraft beers on offer.” “We are delighted to welcome Sexpo back to the Johannesburg Expo Centre in October,” says JEC Chief Executive Officer, Craig Newman. “It’s a significant year for a number of reasons. The JEC has been home to Sexpo for a number of years and we have built a successful relationship with the show organisers so we are excited to host it again. Also, the Sexpo celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2016.” Newman says that show fanatics can expect a bigger and better event this year, with a more sophisticated approach. “The show will be classier while still delivering the same fun and excitement that fans have come to expect,” he says. “Of course, the Expo Centre is the perfect venue to deliver a memorable performance, as we provide ample parking space, easy access to and from the venue and multi-purpose exhibition halls, satisfying every possible show requirement. It’s an event not to be missed!” This year’s Sexpo also sees the return of the legendary adult entertainment lounges including Teazers, Teaze-Hers, Phantasm LGBTI Lounge, Pulse Boys Lounge, Coyotes Angels Club and Theatre Erotic. Other highlights include the BDSM Play Area, informative seminars hosted in the Spartan Workshop, extreme body painting by Airvolution and Pricasso, described as “the world’s most famous penile artist.”
Of course the show would not be complete without local and international stars appearing at the expo. These include Frog productions and their extravaganza shows, the world famous Amateur Strip, Suzie Q Australia’s aerial and pole queen as well as international porn stars Jessica Drake, Vicki Chase, Tanya Tate and Bonnie Rotten.
But it’s not all sensual fun and high-spirited games – education and health also form an integral part of the Sexpo mix. Says Sean Newman, “Sexpo is about exploring the full spectrum of the sensual side of life, rather than pure sexuality – catering to all interests and tastes. Sexpo is a destination lifestyle exhibition that provides a safe space for everyone regardless of race, age or sexuality, or whether you’re daring or shy. There’s something for everyone to explore and enjoy.” SEXPO FAST FACTS Dates: Thursday, 27 October to Sunday, 30 October 2016 Times: Thursday 11am to 10pm; Friday 11am to 11pm; Saturday 10am to 11pm; and Sunday 10am to 6pm. Venue: Hall 6, Johannesburg Expo Centre, Nasrec, corner Nasrec and Rand Show roads, Johannesburg Restrictions: Strictly over 18 years only Pricing: Thursday R100 (Silver), R250 (Gold); Friday-Sunday R150 (Silver) and R250 (Gold).

ICED* INTERVIEW: DIRK VAN DER WESTHUIZEN Dirk recently performed in the Vaal at the Apra fest, he had the crowd going wild, ICED couldn’t let the opportunity pass to interview him after sawing his performance: 1. Your new album will be released in November according to plan, what can we expect? The album was scheduled to release November but the artistic process is taking more time and I want it all to be perfect so I’m not sure when I’ll release it. 2. “Gooi jou suiker op my” will always be the song people associate you first with, don’t you get tired of singing it? How many girls have asked you to “gooi jou suiker op my”? I love that song, it changed my whole life. A lot of people have thrown me with bags and bowls of sugar on my shows, it feels weird when you’re all sweaty and covered in sugar. Lol. 3. On your new album,there will be some remixes of songs from your previous album, care to elaborate? Because of my new album taking longer I thought it would be great to remix some of the old song to keep the shows fresh and to give the fans something new and exciting to listen to. I don’t like to keep people waiting. 4. Any funny story to share of something that happened on stage? Or something strange a supporter did towards you? Ooooh. There’s a lot of funny stories. But it’s always fun to have older people with me on stage and dancing like crazy - you truly are as old as you feel. They inspire me to live life to the fullest.
