The XMA Europe Awards 2026, the prizes celebrating the best of the continent’s adult industry and whose full list of nominations we had already covered, have come to a close in Amsterdam. The ceremony, presented by creator platform Fansly, took place on Sunday, September 13 and served as the grand finale of XBIZ’s fall event series, which included the XBIZ Amsterdam conference and the European debut of X3 Amsterdam. As we reported, the evening was led by Amirah Adara and Ella Hughes, who didn’t limit themselves to hosting duties but also took the stage as winners.
Adara, in particular, claimed two awards for individual scenes, Best Sex Scene – Feature with Clash of the Vikings (Digital Playground) and Best Sex Scene – Orgy/Group (Female-Led) with Hardcore Gangbangs: Maledom (Evil Angel), while Hughes took Best Sex Scene – Orgy/Group (Mixed) with Knockout Babes Fuck Two Cops on Duty (Blacked Raw/Vixen Media Group). A dual role, as hosts and honorees, that made their night all the more special.
The night’s biggest winners
The true queen of the edition was Catherine Knight, who paired the Female Performer of the Year title with a win in Best Sex Scene – Feature, shared with Amirah Adara and Xander Corvus for Clash of the Vikings. Among the men, the Male Performer of the Year honor went to Shadow Dimitri, also part of the winning Best Sex Scene – Orgy/Group (Mixed). Rounding out the performer picture are Shalina Devine (MILF Performer of the Year), Paddy O’Brian (Gay Performer of the Year) and Audrey Reid, named Best New Performer.
On the directing front, Julia Grandi took Director of the Year – Body of Work (Narrative) and Marcello Bravo its Non-Narrative counterpart, while Clemence Audiard claimed Director of the Year – Individual Work for No Way Back (Clemence Crave). The most prestigious award, Best Picture, went to Pull (Vixen Media Group), a film that also earned Hope Heaven the Best Acting honor.
