Sweet Release Signs on as Presenting Sponsor for 2020 X Awards Australia

LOS ANGELES — Sweet Release, an adult industry marketing and publicity agency, has signed on as the presenting sponsor of the 2020 Australian Adult Entertainment Business Industry Awards, known more colloquially as X Awards Australia.

Designed to recognize top players across the adult sector, the X Awards debuted last year to a successful run. The 2020 ceremony, set for November 7, will once again bring together nominees for an evening of celebration and continued networking, culminating in the announcement of winners. 

Online nominations will kick off on April 1, with voting continuing until showtime. 

Hosted by Jett Black, CEO and Founder of Sweet Release and the X Awards, and co-hosted by adult industry ambassadors of Sweet Release, Jane Untamed and Daliah Amor, the X Awards will present over 34 awards categories sponsored by industry partners, including Swiss Navy, ASN Lifestyle Magazine, "By The Bi" podcast, Adult Industry Association, Herbal-Erect, NaughtyAds, Adult Press Australia, RealBabes, LuckyAd Escorts and Massages, Ballin’ On A Budget TV, Forbidden Toys, JSAlternative Photography and Chasers Venues, among others.

Sweet Release and X Awards Australia have also announced an industry and media partnership with ASN Entertainment and its lifestyle magazine. 

"We invite the global adult industry to support our program, helping us to support the businesses and entertainers that make our industry great," said Black. "We would also like to thank ASN Magazine for supporting the awards program with exposure in this April release." 

Attendees of the ceremony, notably, have the opportunity to promote themselves and their businesses via a video-recorded media wall with mainstream and adult industry media in attendance. The evening is also set to include live music and entertainment, plus cocktails and small bites. The full entertainment line-up for 2020 is yet to be confirmed.
