Television X's SHAFTA Awards Celebrate Summer & AgeID

LONDON, UK—The SHAFTA Awards are the longest running adult television awards show in the UK, and when they return on July 12, the theme of the show will the "Summer of Love." On Thursday, July 12, the SHAFTA "Summer of Love" will take over the Tropicana Beach Club in London’s Covent Garden for a flower power party of peace, love and porno.

Acording to the show's founders, though, it wouldn’t be a summer of love without someone to jump in bed with—and that’s why Television X has announced that AgeID will be the SHAFTAs’ official presenting sponsor.

AgeID is a secure online age verification tool that will be fully compliant with the UK Government’s forthcoming AV regulation. AgeID’s age verification system will be available to every adult website accessible from within the UK, providing immediate compliance with the legislation. The platform will be offered free of charge to all independent UK studios, producers and bloggers.

AgeID spokesperson James Clark stated, “We have created a fast, private, secure, user-friendly tool to comply with the impending UK legislation. Due to our non-intrusive approach to age verification and our reliance on third-party providers, customers are safe in the knowledge that their age verification data cannot be compromised. Adult site owners gain the benefit of being part of a huge trusted network of adult sites which allows users to browse freely between them. We are proud to sponsor the SHAFTAs which brings adult sites, content creators, customers, and actors together for a summer event not to be missed.”

The SHAFTAs never fail to attract the attention of the biggest press outlets, having been featured in the Mail Online, BBC3, The Sun, Uni Lad and Vice to name a few. With some psychedelic support from AgeID, SHAFTA's "Summer of Love" expects to make an even bigger splash this year when awarding the coveted golden cocks to the hottest names and freshest faces in the industry.

“This is the first time the SHAFTAs will take place in the Summer. We can’t wait to see the porn stars dressed to impress at this sexy hippy freak-out which promises to be as groovy as it is horny,” said Television X’s Programming Director Anna Kieran. “We look forward to celebrating the achievements and recognizing the unique talents of the UK adult industry and are psyched to have partnered with AgeID for the return of the SHAFTAs.”
