LOS ANGELES, Calif. – The Trans Erotica Awards (TEA) presented by Clips4Sale has announced that Domino Presley will return as Mistress of Ceremonies for the 2026 of the award show, marking her seventh consecutive year hosting the event. The 2026 TEAs will be held on March 6 and 8 in Hollywood, California.
“Mother’s back,” Presley said. “After seven years of hosting the TEA Awards, it somehow gets better and better every single time. First and foreskin, I want to thank Steven, Kristel, and the entire TEA team for trusting me year after year to get the job done—and done well.
“I want to shout out the former TEA Awards hosts—TS Madison, Jujubee, Nicole Paige Brooks (from Atlanta, Georgia), and Michelle Austin,” Presley added. “They were all phenomenal, and I had a lot to live up to.”
TEA Executive Producer Kristel Penn said the “TEAs would not be the TEAs without Domino.”
“She is the heart and sass of our event,” Penn added. “The TEAs will always be, first and foremost, a community event and one where we try our best to honor our performers. Domino has been a fearless and outspoken leader in our industry, and I cannot think of a better human to orchestrate the night as our Mistress of Ceremonies.”
In advance of the 2026 show, Presley emphasized the importance of community and visible allyship.
“This year, I’m especially excited to see the new talent, as well as performers from other sides of the industry who show up to support the trans community,” Pressley said. “Seeing allies truly ally is heart-warming, and with the way the world is right now, we could use all the real allyship possible. Istarted hosting the TEA Awards red carpet back in 2011 with Sparky Snakeden, Joan Rivers-style, and now I’m heading into my seventh consecutive year as your Mistress of Ceremonies.”
First launched by Grooby as an online competition, the Trans Erotica Awards have evolved into a popular weekend in-person event welcoming individuals from the trans adult industry from around the globe. The 2026 TEAs presented by Clips4Sale will kick off with the Official Pre-Party on March 6 at the Bardot (the Avalon’s connecting property), followed by the Awards Program on March 8 at the Avalon.
