Vanniall rolls into EXXXOTICA Chicago April 10 – 12 this time with a new fan photo booth, a full three-day appearance and fresh momentum following her ‘Pornhub Model of the Year’ win at the 2026 Trans Erotica Awards.
Stationed at Booth 939 right across from the SPARK! stage, the popular performer will be on hand all weekend taking photos with fans, printing a limited number of 8x10s on the spot and signing them at her corner booth for $20 each.
“I wanted to do something a little more fun and a little more personal for Chicago,” said Vanniall. “The photo booth felt like the right move – fans get a real keepsake, I get to actually spend a minute with people and it makes the whole weekend feel more like an experience than a quick hello. I’m really excited for this one.”
Vanniall is also giving away five free passes to EXXXOTICA Chicago. Fans can enter by emailing Vanniall@fastmail.com with the subject line “EXXXOTICA Chicago.”
