XBIZ is pleased to announce the release of the full show schedule for XBIZ Miami 2022. The biggest summer event for adult creators and digital media pros is set for a highly anticipated in-person return at the oceanfront Sagamore Hotel in Miami, May 16-19.
Presented by premier webcam community Chaturbate, this year’s XBIZ Miami will offer a trifecta of professional development, elite schmoozing and just plain poolside fun. Whether following the Web/Tech or Creator/Talent track, attendees can learn about the latest trends in content creation, monetization, digital marketing and everything else they might need to stay ahead, thanks to timely panel sessions and workshops.
That’s on top of the lineup of networking activities where attendees can reunite with industry peers, make new contacts and explore collaborative opportunities. And of course, this year’s edition of XBIZ Miami carries on the summer tradition of offering plenty of exclusive social events, culminating with the 2022 XBIZ Cam Awards, adult creators’ biggest night.

On Monday, May 16, the arrivals day of XBIZ Miami gets underway with Event Registration, sponsored by CAM4, where attendees can get an early start by picking up their all-access badges. Afterwards, things get going with two Chaturbate-sponsored events: “Boot Camp,” a model welcome reception and orientation; next, Women in Adult (WIA) invites models and execs to experience the healing benefits of sound waves at a ladies-only “Sound Bath” guided meditation on the beach. Then, MobiusPay sponsors a positively effervescent Kick-Off Happy Hour, and finally the evening culminates in XBIZ Miami’s perennially popular White Party, a festive opening to the show, sponsored by Stripchat.
Tuesday, May 17, the first full day of XBIZ Miami, attendees can jump-start the morning with some endorphins during a “Morning Fitness” session sponsored by ElevatedX — and then put that energy to good use in “Speed Networking,” sponsored by Humboldt, helping attendees make fresh connections while enjoying the gentle tropical breeze poolside.
Speaking of which, XBIZ Miami’s all-new Company Bungalow hotel suites offer a fresh hospitality experience throughout the afternoon, with everything from impromptu meetups with company reps to product demos and photo shoots. Meanwhile, Poolside Cabanas provide yet another fun way to network while getting to know both established and up-and-coming players.
The multitrack conference program gets going Tuesday afternoon, including four Creator/Talent-track sessions sponsored by ImLive. Leading off is “Camming’s One-Two Punch: Charm & Communication,” a look at how understanding, empathy and psychology can help cam models succeed. Then it’s “Clip Watch: New Tools & Expanding Opportunities,” where accomplished creators delve into content creation concepts and the latest trends in clip-making. After that, “The Big Time: Transitioning From Indie to Studio Work” will cover how cam models, clip artists or premium social media stars can break into the pro studio side of the industry. That’s followed by “Premium Social: Top Strategies for Engaging Fans,” featuring a panel of profit-savvy stars as they get into the nitty-gritty of customs, feeds and chat goals.
Over on the Web/Tech track, a slew of don’t-miss sessions awaits, sponsored by YourPaysitePartner. In “Talent Platforms: Latest Advances in Cam & Clip Sites,” experts from camming and video platforms will discuss how the latest trends and features can translate into new monetization opportunities for creators and producers alike. “Techniques for Boosting Content Earnings” will demystify how to distribute your content through various channels from the traditional to the cutting-edge. Then it’s a chance to hear from creator-focused solution providers who help models/performers excel, in “Talent Services: Leveling Up Your Game With Helpful Solutions.” Finally, Pineapple Support presents “How to Feel Great On & Off Camera,” with a focus on empowerment, self-esteem and nurturing the parts of ourselves we feel less secure about.
All the while, XBIZ Miami will also be hosting a series of Company Workshops. “BranditScan Presents: The Surge in Content Piracy & How Creators Can Fight Back” will serve up helpful prevention tactics and must-know tools. “Fleshlight Presents: Make & Sell Your Own Fleshlight” will walk attendees through the process of creating a custom-branded Fleshlight. “CAM4 Presents: A United Community” will feature a frank conversation about industry work and related struggles, and the community resources available for support. Tuesday’s company workshops conclude with “FansRevenue Presents: How to Make Money & Influence People,” which will explore influencer-oriented affiliate marketing opportunities.
Then it’s on to a trio of fun evening diversions, starting with XBIZ Miami’s wildly popular Swimsuit Contest, sponsored by Adult Time, Cybersocket, ElevatedX, Humboldt and ImLive. That’s followed by “Power 2 the Performer,” XBIZ Miami’s inaugural fashion show, sponsored by Streamate, spotlighting talent as they slay the runway with South Beach flair, sporting revealing pieces by specialty designers. Capping off the night, a soon-to-be-announced event at a marquee Miami venue will feature a performance by a special musical guest, closing out the first full day of the conference with a bang.
On Wednesday, May 18, the second and final full day of the conference gets underway with another “Morning Fitness” session. On the education front, the Creator/Talent track revs up again with “FSC Presents: Sex Work & Creator Health in the Time of Mgen,” a session from PASS on the emergent STI Mycoplasma genitalium and ways content creators can protect their health. Afterwards, “Personal Finance: Managing Your Earnings Wisely” will offer strategies for improving one’s take-home earnings, sponsored by ImLive.
On the Web/Tech track, YourPaysitePartner sponsors three informative sessions, kicking off with “Billing Now: The Outlook for Payment Processing,” featuring experts examining the billing landscape, from compliance measures and regulations to the latest tech and what lies ahead. Afterwards, “From Blockchain to the Metaverse: Adult’s New Frontiers” will examine the adoption and momentum of cryptocurrencies, NFTs and the prospect of an adult metaverse. Finally, “Legal 2022: A Midyear Report” will host a distinguished panel of legal experts to uncover potential pitfalls and reveal what industry players need to know to operate safely in the coming months.
XBIZ Miami’s Company Workshops series continues as well, with NMG presenting “Performers: Meeting of the Minds,” a safe space for performers to talk about platform frustrations, the freedom of being their own boss, the emotional toll of a demanding career and more. Afterwards, Satisfyer will take attendees on a journey into the world of sextech with a demo of the Satisfyer Connect App, demonstrating how creators can monetize shared pleasure. Rounding things off, ePlay will host “Using Discord to Build Your Fan Club,” with the ePlay team sharing easy ways for talent to boost their income while building relationships with a growing base of fans and supporters.
After the educational sessions, it’s time for a happy hour-infused edition of “Mix & Meet,” showcasing the latest products and services that can help attendees grow their businesses.
The adult creator community’s biggest night finally arrives Wednesday evening, as we mark the grand in-person return of the XBIZ Cam Awards — the climactic finale to XBIZ Miami, honoring the most dazzling personalities and vibrant artists in adult entertainment, presented by Chaturbate, along with Platinum Sponsor Cams.com and Gold Sponsors BranditScan and Stripchat.
There’s only one way to top XBIZ Miami’s crown jewel event: set the dance floor ablaze in classic disco style at the Miami Ball 2022 Farewell Celebration, with the hottest and best whipping up a glitzy whirlwind of Studio 54-style mayhem.
“XBIZ Miami’s unique vibe and traditions make this event stand alone in so many ways,” said XBIZ events director Moe Helmy. “That ‘summer vacation’ feeling creates a unique environment where attendees are immersed in a laid-back setting while reaping all the benefits of an ultra-robust business-to-business networking conference.”
Free registration is available for affiliates, producers and talent, while XBIZ.net members qualify for discounted admission.
