AltPorn.net is very happy to announce that, honoring excellence in alternative erotica, we are now taking nominations suggestions for our Best of 2025 AltStar Awards, aka the AltPorn Awards, presented by Bad Dragon!

Mark your calendars for June 14 because we are going to be returning again for our fabulous annual celebrity blowout celebration in Las Vegas, Nevada! Check out AltStar event photos from past years and start planning your outfits now. The AltStar Expo will be June 11 to June 13. You can find details at Dates and Venues Set for 2026 AltStar Awards June 14 and AltStar Expo June 11-13. Make those reservations now because hotel rooms are going fast. If you are interested in signing on our Fan Appreciation Day, please contact us for scheduling. Tickets are on sale now!

It feels amazing that AltPorn.net has been covering all things AltPorn for well over two decades now and we always enjoy the time of year when we can expand on the recognition and appreciation that all of our creative alternative erotica friends and crushes deserve. As we do every year, we’re accepting recommendations for all the categories from the fans, models, and producers, as well as our own editorial board of judges. If you know of any work produced in 2025 that really deserves attention for being outstanding, please hit up our nominations form here. We introduced some new categories a few years ago especially for indie-produced clips and premium social media and last year introduced one for toy 3d asset designers. If, as the world changes, and alt drives adult and adult drives the future, you can think of categories we should add, please suggest them!

If you only want to nominate in one category, that is fine. If you want to share your opinion on all of them, that works too. Our panel of judges will gather the qualified suggestions in each category. You can just put a name in and press Continue, but it is helpful if you let us know why you suggested your noms. You are welcome to ask your friends and fans and collaborators to submit prenoms recommendations for you, but it is a plus if they mention why you are awesome and links to the work always help too.

Shares on X and Blue Sky of who you nominated will also be considered. If you want to make fun graphics to promote specific potential nominees, you can make promotional graphics with our promo graphic maker.

For potential nominees, it is helpful if you can make sure we see your work and you are warmly welcome to contact us to send us links to see videos, photography, performance recordings, PDF downloads etc. or to request our mailing address to send over toys and physical media.

Deadline for nominations is 11:59PM midnight CST, April 23. Remember, the prenominations have to be for work that was released in 2025. You can peek at past years’ coverage and nominees for ideas.
