On November 15, hundreds of adult industry perfomers, directors and power players came to the Avalon Hollywood nightclub to get revved up for the 2019 AVN Awards Show, presented by MyFreeCams. Also at the party were 2019 AVN Awards co-hosts Romi Rain and Bailey Rayne, comedian Esther Ku, trophy girls Athena Faris and Gianna Dior, and AVN Awards interviewers Charlotte Stokely and Britney Amber. Before the show began, the team rehearsed for the evening's presentation, at which the nominees for the 2019 AVN Awards were revealed with the appropriate fanfare.
