TAMPA, Fla.—The 30th Annual NightMoves Awards Show Weekend wrapped up Sunday night with the awards presentation ceremony at Mojito’s Tampa Nightclub.
“After 30 years you would think things get a little boring … but that is far, far from the truth," said Paul Allen, owner of Nightmoves Multi-Media, Inc. "This year's weekend was amazing! We had a great group of stars and all of our venues were packed. The $5,000, first-ever Feature Showgirl "Duo Act” competition was a showcase of the finest adult feature dancers in the world! The return of FanFest on Saturday afternoon was a blast and this might have been our best Awards Show Weekend ever!”
The NightMoves Awards Show Weekend started Thursday, October 6 when the first “Star Caravan” visited Hush Gentlemen’s Club in Tampa and Sinsations Gentlemen’s Club in Clearwater. The following night, the stars traveled to 4-Play Gentlemen’s Club in St. Petersburg and The Red Room in New Port Richey. Saturday afternoon featured FanFest, where stars signed autographs, sold merchandise and met fans up close and personal, followed by a $1,000 dance contest at the all-nude club Chica’s Cabaret in Tampa. The same evening, Star Caravans decended upon 2001 Odyssey in Tampa and Silks Adult Entertainment in Clearwater. Following the Awards Show Sunday at Mojito’s, the official After Party commenced at Thee Doll House.
