2025 AltStar Expo: Candids Gallery by Richard Gilkes

7

Shot at the 2026 AltStar Expo, this is a little gallery of photos of the exhibits and media halls and just fun convention candids. The first two days of the AltStar Expo were Industry only and then there was the brand new Fan Appreciation Day, followed by the AltStar Awards on the last day.

In addition to three days packed with panels and demos from top industry experts, the AltStar Expo has an exhibitor hall with booths from content and toy brands in the alt space, alongside carefully curated purveyors of everything deliciously alternative, from gothic jewelry to 3d printed kink, and, of course, on the Fan Appreciation Day, tons of wonderful altmodels. Attendees were able to shop for hard-to-find unique toys in person and get information about content creation and marketing and streaming. In addition, a lot of collaborative media was created right on the show floor. Thank you to everyone who made the AltStar Expo exhibits and media halls such a fun and interesting success.

These images were shot by Richard Gilkes. Richard is a photographer at 35MM Black Media. You can follow him on Instagram at Rgilkes and X at 35mmblackmedia.
