CYBERSPACE—As has been the case with so many adult-oriented events this year, the StorErotica (SE) Awards will once again be presented in 2020—but this time, the show will be virtual.
The 2020 SE Awards were originally set to be presented at the July ANME Show in Burbank, California, as they have been for the past several years, but the current coronavirus pandemic put the kibosh on that, so SE Magazine will instead announce all winners online and in the December issue of SE Magazine.
The final ballot for the SE Awards went live at StoreroticaAwards.com on October 1 and will be accepting eligible votes for the next weeks until October 15.
“Rather than suppress the accolades achieved by vendors and retailers against seemingly insurmountable odds, we will continue to honor our industry at this year’s award presentation,” said SE Magazine editor Kristofer Kay. “It’s just going to have to be from afar until we can see each other once again in Burbank.”
