    Gayo Awards®

    Gayo Awards® to the best LGTB Cinema were created in 2001 by Homocine.com, to award the best lesbian, gay, transexual and bisexual-themed films (LGTB) of the year. In 2003 edition, the equivalent awards for TV series were created, and since 2007 those series specially designed for the Internet can be also nominated. The distinctive feature of these symbolic awards (the winners don't receive any economic award nor of any other kind) is that the visitors of Homocine.com are the jury who decides the winners. With seven editions already, Gayo Awards® have become a keynote of LGTB Cinema in Spanish.

    The name "Gayo Awards"® is a pun between the word "gay" and "Goya Awards", delivered by the Academy of the Cinematographic Arts and Sciences of Spain Enlace a una página externa. Our logo shows a multicoloured cock, another play on words between Spanish "gallo" (cock) and "gay". Our mascot doesn't have a name yet. If you'd like to suggest a name for our "gayo", please leave a message in our forum.

    Next votation, corresponding to the 10th edition of Gayo Awards®, will be held in March 2010 and will take into account the best LGTB-themed films and series of 2009. Please visit our website for more information when that date is near.
