Tips
- Test each award with one question: would the winner tell this story about themselves? If not, change it.
- Aim the joke at a harmless habit, not at someone’s work, appearance or private life.
- Pair each funny award with a line of real thanks, so the winner hears something they will want to remember.
- Mix in two or three serious awards, and finish on the one people value most.
When you want more from it
Awards Night helps you present the awards: a running order, nominees, a private presenter console and an audience screen that reveals each winner on your cue, with audience voting if you want the room to decide. You can prepare and rehearse it free.

Questions
What are some funny office awards that stay kind?
Awards about small shared habits work well: the person with the best snacks, the one who rescues a meeting with the right playlist, the colleague whose plants thrive. Avoid anything about performance, appearance or mistakes.
Should funny awards have nominees or a single winner?
Either works. A shortlist of three builds suspense and shares the laugh; a single surprise winner is quicker. Tell the room beforehand which awards are just for fun.
Can colleagues vote for the winners on the night?
Yes, with Awards Night. Mark an award as an audience vote and colleagues vote on their phones with no account; the winner is revealed on the big screen. Setting up and rehearsing is free.
