Every year towards the end of the Festival the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year is announced. 2014 saw the inaugural UK Pun Championships, at the festival, hosted by Lee Nelson. The winner was Darren Walsh. The competition included the line "My computer's got a Miley Virus. It's stopped twerking.” Walsh went on to take part in the O. Henry Pun-Off World Championships in Austin, Texas. In 2015 the UK Pun Championship was Leo Kearse. ==See also==
