The XMA Europe Awards Ceremony

The XMA Europe Awards ceremony is scheduled for Sunday, September 13, in Amsterdam. The event will serve as the grand finale to a series of industry events, including the XBIZ Amsterdam conference and the inaugural X3 Amsterdam. The XMAs, formerly known as the XBIZ Awards, were established in 2003 by XBIZ Media Corp. to recognize excellence in the adult entertainment industry. The awards expanded over two decades to include international editions in Europe and other regions. In September 2024, the awards were rebranded as the XMAs to unify the series under a new identity. The flagship XMAs ceremony is typically held in January at venues like the Hollywood Palladium. Nominations are submitted by industry professionals and fans, with winners selected by peer voting from industry professionals and fan voting for select categories. Complementary events like the XMA Creator Awards, XMA Europa Awards, and XBIZ Exec Awards extend recognition to specific niches.
