The NightMoves Awards, started in 1993, is the third oldest and continuously running adult awards show in the United States, trailing only the AVN Awards and the industry-only XRCO Awards. To be considered eligible, a movie had to have been released between June 16, 2018 and June 15, 2019. Individual Awards are also based on this same time frame except for those in the “New Starlet” category, whose performances between January 1, 2018 and June 15, 2019 qualify.
The NightMoves Awards were the first to allow fans to select their winners, making it the original fan-based awards, as well as the first awards show to allow on-line voting. In addition to the Fan Awards, the show presents Editor’s Choice awards, based on reviews of DVDs in which nominated performers have appeared.
The NightMoves Awards were sponsored by The All Adult Network.com, Adam & Eve, The Lee Network, Centerfolds Features, Tremor, Galaxy Promotions, The Star Factory PR, Spunk Lube, Axel Braun, Wicked Pictures, Lauren Phillips, Bad-Dragon.com, The Whiskey Gentlemen’s Club, 4-Play Gentlemen’s Club, Sinsations Lounge, 2001 Odyssey, Atlantis Gentlemen’s Club and Thee Manor Gentlemen’s Club.
