6th Annual YNOT Awards 2 Weeks Away

PRAGUE — The 6th Annual YNOT Awards are only two weeks away. The event will take place in Prague, Czech Republic on Wednesday, Sept. 21 during the European Summit, and organizers are promising that this year, it will be “bigger, better, bolder.”

“This year, expect to see more fun stuff, longer open bar and buffet hours, and a more streamlined process in general, including check-in for wristbands, the dinner and the ceremony itself,” said Jay Kopita, co-owner of the YNOT Group and producer and host for the 2016 YNOT Awards. “Last year was great, but this year will be even better.”

While the European Summit will be held at the Parkhotel in Prague, the 6th annual YNOT Awards will be held in Mayakovsky Hall — a banquet facility within Prague’s National House of Vinohrady.

A spokesperson for YNOT said that this year’s videos for the YNOT Awards “are some of the best Kopita has seen to date: funny, touching, irreverent and brilliant.” Guests with reserved dinner seating, according to YNOT, will have “an excellent view of the videos and the rest of the proceedings,” to be hosted by Kopita and First Mobile Cash Senior Sales Manager Laura Cebrian with help from the Fleshlight Girls. 

The evening’s festivities will begin at 6 p.m., when a shuttle will leave the Parkhotel for the National House of Vinohrady. Cocktails will be served, and the Unique Quartet will entertain attendees with jazz, pop-rock and  classical music from the moment they arrive in Mayakovsky Hall.

Dinner will be served at 6:45 p.m., and the awards presentation will begin at 8:15 p.m.

Free seating and a cash bar will be available in Mayakovsky Hall’s expansive balcony for those without dinner reservations. Balcony guests should arrive no later than 8 p.m. in order to be seated before the show begins.

Kopita said of dinner guests, “It’s imperative that everyone give me the list of names for their tables right away in order to speed up the check-in process.” According to Kopita, 15 dinner seats remain; to claim one or more, e-mail him directly at jay@ynot.com. 

The 2016 YNOT Awards are presented by industry news and networking site YNOT.com with the support of platinum sponsors Fleshlight and their affiliate program FNCash, as well as gold sponsors Traffic Company, First Mobile Cash, Charm Studios, Affil4You, PussyCash, Y.E.S. Studio, EroAdvertising, PlugRush, Studio 20, BongaCash, AdultForce,Traffic Junky, ClickAdu, Flirt4Free and the Live Cam Awards. 

The National House of Vinohrady, built in 1894, is located at Namesti Miru 820/9, 120 00 Prague, Czech Republic and is within walking distance of the Namesti Miru Station on the Prague Metro.
