To ensure the ED Awards Show is clean and crisp two-hour show, we hand out several awards prior to the “main” show. This year is no different, and we have five awards that will be presented in advance.
With the EDI Finals being held on the Sunday of EXPO since 2021, the first night of the convention has morphed into “feature entertainers night.” As such, it makes all the sense in the world to present several awards to features, and to honor the clubs that book feature entertainers!
The following ED Awards will be presented on Sunday, August 24, at Peppermint Hippo during the EDI Finals.
Dan Harris and Archibald’s in DC win the 2024 Feature Club of the Year Award
Club Award at Peppermint Hippo
To honor the clubs that book the industry’s top feature entertainers and showgirls in their clubs, we will present the ED Award for “Feature Club of the Year.” Nominees for this award will be chosen by the pre-nominations voting website which will launch in May 2025.
Entertainer Awards at Peppermint Hippo
Four feature entertainer awards will be presented at the 2025 EDI Finals on Sunday, August 24 from 9 pm to midnight at Peppermint Hippo Las Vegas. After our four EDI Finalists wow audience members with their electrifying performances, the following entertainer awards will be presented: Club Favorite Entertainer of the Year, Newcomer Entertainer of the Year, and Miss ExoticDancer.com of the Year
The ED’s Awards Show
The 2025 ED “Honors” Awards Show will be held on Tuesday, August 26 at the Criss Angel Theater inside Planet Hollywood. Transportation will take guests from the Flamingo to Criss Angel (or you can take an Uber or Lyft). A reception will be held right outside the theater from 7:30-9 pm, immediately followed by the awards show from 9 to 11 pm. This year’s awards show will be hosted by comedian Kellen Erskine and feature performances by two EDI finalists. Plus, we’ll find out who wins such prestigious awards as Overall Club of the Year, Overall “Small” Club of the Year, Feature Entertainer of the Year and EDI Grand Champion!
