Brent Aldon, Erik Vasquez to Return as Hosts of 2027 XBIZ Awards, Pleasure and Retail Edition

LOS ANGELES — Aneros Director of Sales and Marketing Brent Aldon and Sliquid VP of Marketing Erik Vasquez will once again bring their signature showmanship to the stage as co-hosts of the 2027 XBIZ Awards, on Jan. 9 at Avalon Hollywood.

Presented by Svakom and Kaotik Labs, the Pleasure Industry’s Biggest Night® will roll out the red carpet for an evening of glamour and recognition, bringing together the brightest luminaries in the global community.

Following their crowd-pleasing debut as co-hosts, Aldon and Vasquez are gearing up to deliver an even bigger night of celebration.

"It is such an incredible honor to be asked to return as hosts," said Aldon. "For the 2027 edition, we are taking things to an entirely new level, with even more surprises and unforgettable moments. We can't reveal too much yet, but we promise you one thing: we are back, and you haven't seen anything yet!"

Vasquez echoed Aldon's enthusiasm for returning to the stage as co-host.

"It brings a perfect balance of excitement and nervousness,” he said. “I'm excited to lead the celebration of the incredible leaders and innovators in our industry, but also a little nervous because I think Brent and I set the bar high.

"This year, expect more glamour and energy," he continued. "Let's just say, we're bringing a little extra showmanship to the ceremony, and of course all eyes will be center stage to watch our friends and colleagues accept their much-deserved awards. It's going to be epic!"

The awards ceremony will be held in conjunction with the XBIZ 2027 event series, taking place at JW Marriott L.A. LIVE from Jan. 7-10.
