Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” Awards are back and bigger than ever.
Following the success of the inaugural show in 2025, the second-annual VRT Awards will return to the Big Apple to celebrate the year’s most iconic moments in reality television.
Hosted by “VRT” stars Evan Real and Danny Murphy, the glam, gala-style 2026 show — which will take place on Oct. 6 at Edison Ballroom in New York City — will feature performances and appearances from top talent across the unscripted universe.
Tri-State Cadillac will serve as the exclusive auto sponsor of the awards.
The cast of E!’s “The Golden Life” — Kelly Bensimon, Countess Luann de Lesseps, Dorinda Medley, Sonja Morgan and Ramona Singer — will be in attendance to receive the Golden Kettle award, VRT’s most prestigious honor recognizing lifetime achievement in reality television, personally selected by Murphy and Real.
“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Drew Sidora will take the stage for an exclusive live performance.
Additional performers and celebrity appearances will be announced at a later date.
“For us, this is truly the most wonderful time of the year,” said Murphy and Real. “We can’t wait to celebrate the biggest stars and moments in reality TV with the fans who live for it as much as we do.”
Tickets to the live event — which will also feature a cocktail hour, seated dinner and VIP afterparty — are available to purchase now. Voting will open in August at PageSix.com
Notable fan-voted categories will include Quote of the Year, Hot-Tea of the Year, Best Cast, Best Reunion Performance, Best Return to Screen, Style Icon of the Year, Musician of the Year and Favorite Dynamic Duo.
Last year’s inaugural “VRT” Awards featured appearances by dozens of reality stars and a special musical performance from “Real Housewives of Potomac” alum Candiace Dillard Bassett.
