The NightMoves Awards are given annually in the US pornographic film industry by NightMoves, an Oldsmar, Florida-based magazine[1] which was first published in 1987[8] and initially titled Sports South.[9] The awards began in 1993 and were initially titled the Central Florida Adult Entertainment Awards.[6] It is the third oldest continuously running adult awards show in the United States, after the AVN Awards and the XRCO Awards.[4] It also marks the start of the porn industry's awards season.[10] In addition to the show's national awards, local awards are also given to sexually oriented businesses and dancers in the Tampa Bay Area.[1] Two awards are given for each national category: one which is chosen by fans and the other one which is chosen by the editors of NightMoves magazine.[11] An online voting ballot is available for approximately three months every year for the fan's choice awards.[5] Recipients of the editor's choice awards are chosen based on film reviews.[12]
The awards have been held at several different venues throughout the Tampa Bay Area, including The Krush in Tampa in 1995,[13] and 1996,[14] Club XS in Downtown Tampa in 1997,[15] 1998,[16] and 1999,[17] Stormin's Palace in Clearwater in 2000,[18] 2001,[19] and 2004,[20] the Pinellas Expo Center in Pinellas Park in 2002,[21] club Twilight in Tampa in 2003,[22] Bricktown 54 in Clearwater in 2005,[23] 2006,[2] and 2007,[24] the Dallas Bull in Tampa in 2008,[3] 2009,[25] 2010,[26] 2011,[27] and 2012,[28] and the Tampa Gold Club in 2013,[29] 2014,[4] and 2015.[30] Pornographic actor Ron Jeremy has hosted every show so far.[4]
The NightMoves Awards added a new a category titled the Triple-Play Award in 2006.[31] Also known as the Anna Award, it was created in honor of the late pornographic actress Anna Malle.[31] Recipients of the award are recognized for their excellence in at least three different fields of the adult entertainment industry,[27] such as performing, directing, and feature dancing.[31][32] The first recipient of the award was Stormy Daniels.[31] In 2007, NightMoves added a Hall of Fame to its awards show.[33] Two additional award categories were also added that year: Best All Girl Release and Best Comedy or Parody Release.[34] In 2012, the show added award categories for Best Social Media Star, Best Website (individual performer), Best Multi-site Network, Best Parody – Comedy, Best Parody – Drama, Best Parody – Super Hero, Best Boobs, Best Ass, Best Overall Body, Best Latina Performer, Best Transsexual Performer, and Best Transsexual Release.[35]
