VENUS Berlin

The VENUS Berlin, also known as the VENUS Erotic Festival Berlin, is one of the world’s most prominent trade and public events for erotica, lifestyle, and entertainment. Since its founding in 1997, it has become a cornerstone of the German trade fair scene. Organized by VENUS Berlin GmbH, the event is held annually with a keen sense for industry trends and visitor interests, delivering a truly unique experience each year.

Once a year, the historic exhibition grounds beneath Berlin’s iconic Funkturm tower transform into an international meeting point for the erotic industry. The event spans several halls and is divided into three distinct areas: the Business Arena, the Exhibition Arena, and the Show Arena. This structure ensures that both industry professionals and consumers enjoy a tailored experience. In the Business Arena, a calm lounge atmosphere allows professionals to discuss products, terms, and partnerships away from the show elements. The Exhibition Arena showcases a wide range of international brands, labels, and innovations. Meanwhile, the Show Arena features erotic live performances across multiple stages, offering top-tier entertainment.

With thousands of visitors annually and a diverse roster of exhibitors, VENUS Berlin is among the largest erotic trade fairs in Europe. The offerings range from sex toys, lingerie, BDSM accessories, and fetish fashion to cutting-edge technologies such as app-controlled or AI-powered devices. Topics such as sexual health, sensual communication, alternative relationship models, education, wellness products, and the merging of pleasure and well-being are also well represented.

A standout feature of the fair is its inclusive approach. VENUS positions itself as a platform for people of all genders and sexual orientations. Dedicated offerings for the LGBTQ+ community and a diverse group of exhibitors foster an open, respectful, and enjoyable atmosphere. Eroticism in media, art, and entertainment is also a key focus—with erotic films, magazines, artistic works, live performances, and fashion shows all part of the program.

One of the annual highlights is the prestigious VENUS Awards ceremony—considered the "Oscars of the erotic industry"—which honors individuals and companies that have made a lasting impact on the field through innovation, outstanding achievements, or media presence. The program is rounded out with lectures, panels, and workshops that create space for professional exchange and fresh inspiration.

VENUS Berlin is far more than a marketplace—it's an experience. It masterfully blends business, lifestyle, and entertainment, combining the professionalism of a trade fair with the sensuality of a festival. For those interested in the latest developments in the erotic industry, looking to discover new trends, build networks, or simply enjoy and be amazed, VENUS offers a stage as diverse as desire itself.

For the twenty-eighth time there is the VENUS on 4 days from Thur., 25.09.2025 to Sun., 28.09.2025 in Berlin.
