Easily the most important, most sought after, and most cheated in awards at the Fringe, the Comedy Lounge awards were begun in 2001, and the list of winners includes some people that we know, and some people that we don't, all of which we love. Each winner is awarded with the knowledge that someone, somewhere, loves them, and also a packet of sweets for their trouble, possibly. The Comedy Lounge awards are voted for by YOU, the reading public. Except of course we have the final decision and the authority to over-rule. You can vote for as many or few categories as you like by sending an email to awards@comedylounge.co.uk
