CHATSWORTH, Calif.—AVN Media Network reminds adult industry producers, directors, talent and other active personnel that the deadline to submit pre-nominations for the 2025 AVN Awards, taking place Saturday, January 25 at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas and presented by MyFreeCams, is fast approaching in just five days, on Sunday, September 15.
Submissions must be made via the AVN Awards Pre-Nomination Site, located at:
The Pre-Nom Site will close promptly at 11:59 p.m. PT the night of September 15, and there will be no extension of this deadline. Rest assured, however, that this does NOT affect the traditional deadline of September 30 to RELEASE submitted material commercially. Any work or product slated for release during the period of September 15-30 may still be submitted prior to release via the Pre-Nom Site, and the work or product itself may be delivered to AVN any time through the traditional release deadline.
Those who have previously been approved to use the Pre-Nom Site may use the same login to access the site for this year's submissions. Anyone without a previously approved login must fill out the sign-up form to request access HERE.
Pre-nominations are also currently open for the 2025 GayVN Awards, and industry members may request access to submit pre-noms for that event as well using the same application form.
Note that as in previous years, those approved for the Pre-Nom Site may submit a maximum of FIVE (5) pre-nominations in any one category. With that in mind, we strongly urge all those participating in the pre-nomination process to take great care in what and whom they choose to submit for consideration, limiting it to the very best of the best selections within a given category.
For clarification on any category, simply mouse over the question mark beside each one on the Pre-Nom Site to see a detailed description, or find them all here.
AVN also urges those submitting pre-nominations to CAREFULLY read through the eligibility rules for the various types of production categories in the Video & Web section (Scene/Featurette, Movie/Limited Series, Series/Channel), available in their entirety at the following link:

Pleasure products companies should also provide two (2) samples of each product they would like considered. All items should be mailed or hand-delivered to:
