Barry Award (for comedy)

The Barry Award is an annual prize presented to the most outstanding comedy act at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. It has been awarded since 1998, when it was introduced as the Stella Award, and was renamed in 2000 in honour of Barry Humphries, one of the festival's founding patrons. The Barry is generally regarded as the most prestigious award of the festival, and the winner receives a trophy and cash prize.
