The Savanna Comics’ Choice Comedy Awards honours those who’ve made their mark on the comedy scene over the last year. From newcomers to icons. From comedic writers to comedy promoters and the agencies that produce the funniest ads in SA. Think of them as the Oscars, but for those brave souls who chose punchlines over poignant pauses.
“The awards celebrate the heartbeat of South African comedy. This is not just a ceremony. It’s a tribute to talented minds and the craft of comedy. An event that ensures our country’s comedy scene is recognised as globally competitive. Healthy and thriving. We bring the entire industry together to celebrate their peers. We want everyone else to celebrate them too.” ~ Manuela Dias de Deus, Executive Producer of the Awards
Over the years, Trevor Noah, Loyiso Gola, Tumi Morake, Skhumba Hlophe, Celeste Ntuli, Schalk Bezuidenhout and more have taken home an award. This for their significant contribution to SA comedy. Last year, Robby Collins took home top honours. This including the coveted Comedian of the Year Award. Wazi M Kunene scooped the Savanna Newcomer Award.
