(TAMPA, FL) — Fetish Con™ officially announces dates and schedules for its fourteenth annual fetish industry and community trade show. Returning to the Hilton Tampa Downtown in Florida and proudly sponsored by Clips4Sale, the largest networking event for the fetish industry and community on the East Coast will occur August 7 – 10 this year.
“We can’t believe we are about to kick off our 14th Fetish Con™!” says Event Promoter, Genesis Lynn. “As cliché as it sounds, it feels like just yesterday we were organizing our very first event back in 2001. All of us – Vesta, Mike and I – get more excited about the show each year. We look forward to bringing both new and experienced industry members together, as well as offering an exciting event for the local fetish community, fans, and first time attendees.”
With classes, private dungeon, live fetish shows, art gallery, after-hour parties and the pervy pool party that never stops, Fetish Con™ has grown to an internationally recognized and hugely anticipated event within the fetish industry and community. Blowing the doors off the party scene in Tampa every year since 2004, when the event moved to sunny Florida from New York, the event brings thousands of fetish performers, production companies, and kinksters together for an unforgettable four-day weekend.
This year, the dungeon / play space hours have been extended all weekend long, allowing all attendees the flexibility to enjoy private play as well as visit all classes, workshops, and booths on the trade show floor. The Fan Photo Shoot, where sexy models will be bound and gagged for a photo shoot blitz by fans, will also be returning for its fourteenth year. In addition, the 9th Annual Super Heroine Showdown will again be hosted by writer and illustrator George Perez of Avengers / Teen Titans / Wonder Woman fame, for an epic cosplay-meets-bondage show on the main stage.

“Fetish Con™ 2014 has so many new and exciting events that will debut this year; we cannot wait to unveil them!” adds Genesis Lynn. “Industry attendees can participate in a free B2B event, called ‘the Fetish Connect’ – registered models & producers are invited to take part in this intensive 1-on-1 Speed Networking Session! During this event, attendees will be able to put a face to a name and exchange business cards and contact information while at Fetish Con™. It’s the perfect opportunity to meet and network before the parties begin, and an ideal place to set-up shoots too!”
Genesis Lynn continues, “In addition, we are kicking off the trade show with the ‘Kinky [Red] Carpet.’ We’re taking the red carpet to a whole new level! The Pervy Paparazzi will be out in full force, snapping photos, as it is sure to be a fetishists’ and fans’ wet dream as all the wild & sexy special guests, models and attendees strike a pose. This event will be streamed live on FetishCon.com; we will also have real-time photo updates on Instagram, at instagram.com/fetishcon. Also – you asked, and we listened! The Official Fetish Con™ Private Dungeon Play Space will be open to every attendee for up to *19 hours per day (*times noted on website), where you can let your deepest fantasies come to fruition!”

The gorgeous $13-million, year-long overhaul of the venue includes a technology lounge within the guest lobby, with Mac computers and executive-style chairs, one of the largest full-service Starbucks in Tampa, and an upscale, modern restaurant and lounge.

About Fetish Con™:
Our original show may have started out somewhat small with only about 500 attendees in total that consisted of models, producers, fans, and exhibitors back in October of 2001 in Queens, New York. Since then, Fetish Con™ has steadily grown and expanded to be an internationally recognized and hugely anticipated event within the fetish industry and community, growing and expanding until 2004, when original organizers, Vesta and Genesis Lynn, moved the show to sunny Tampa, Florida. With classes, private dungeon, red carpet, fetish shows, after hour parties and the pervy pool party (www.pervypoolparty.com) that literally never stops… Fetish Con™ is an event that blows the doors off the party scene in Tampa every year!
