It’s been seven years since the last GayVN Awards were handed out, but on January 21, 2018, the show will be back to celebrate gay porn.

 

In total, there are 28 categories; these have been split between 15 categories that will be voted on by a group of judges from the industry, and 13 categories that will voted on by the fans.

 

“We couldn’t be happier about the industry response,” said CEO Tony Rios. “Companies participated by submitting pre-nominations, and we’ve heard nothing but excitement about the return of the awards show. We’re happy to have CAM4 and iWantEmpire as sponsors, and we’re looking forward to many companies traveling to Las Vegas to attend the show, which runs during the Internext Expo.”

 

Voting on the GayVN Fan Awards will begin this Wednesday, Nov. 29.

 

Here is the rather exhaustive collection of nominees, which would have been shorter if it only listed everyone who wasn't up for an award. {Amazingly, it is actually missing a few key players in the biz and includes a few questionable additions like the no longer active CodyCummings.com.)
