LOS ANGELES — Dripping with star power and gilded in XMA gold, international sensations Amirah Adara and Ella Hughes are set to helm Europe's biggest night as co-hosts of the 2026 XMA Europe Awards, taking center stage Sept. 13 in Amsterdam.
Hungarian powerhouse Amirah Adara carved her name into industry history at the inaugural XBIZ Europa Awards in 2018, claiming the coveted Female Performer of the Year crown. Since then, she has continued to captivate audiences, headlining acclaimed productions for marquee studios.
"I'm incredibly honored to host the 2026 Euro XMAs. It's a massive milestone, and I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to XBIZ for this phenomenal opportunity," Adara said. "I was already beyond thrilled, but finding out I'd be co-headlining with the stunning, wildly talented Ella Hughes took it to another level. I can't wait for us to set the stage ablaze and deliver an unforgettable night."
Like Adara, fiery British maven Ella Hughes is no stranger to XMA glory. Hughes previously took home International Crossover Star and Best Actress honors before making a triumphant return to the winner’s circle in 2025 for her performance in a Brazzers release. A Fleshlight Girl with magnetic presence, Hughes has become a fixture on the Euro XMA circuit, serving as both a red-carpet host and presenter.
"Stepping up as the first British woman to host this show is a dream I've held for a long time. Thank you to XBIZ for inviting me to lead such a momentous night," Hughes said. "I am beyond ecstatic to share the stage with Amirah Adara. She is a true European legend and an absolute force. Amirah is pure high-octane energy — everyone's double shot of espresso for the evening! She brings the drama and the haute-couture glamour, and I can't wait to complement her energy."
The XMA Europe Awards, presented by Fansly, will once again gather the continent's most visionary creators, performers, and brands in Amsterdam to celebrate pinnacle achievements across movie production, digital media, and pleasure products.
The ceremony serves as the crown jewel of XBIZ's fall event series, featuring XBIZ Amsterdam and the highly anticipated European debut of X3 Amsterdam.
