WHAT ARE THE NOTTY AWARDS?
The Notty Awards (a play on Whatnot) is an independent, community-driven awards show created by Bish — a Whatnot community member — to celebrate the sellers, buyers, creators, and personalities who make Whatnot special. This is NOT an official Whatnot event. Whatnot does not sponsor or endorse the show. It's entirely fan-organized and fan-funded.
100% Independent
This show has no affiliation with Whatnot Inc. It's created and run by community members, for community members.
Community Voted
Every single winner is chosen by the community. You nominate, you vote, you decide — no judges, no panels.
Live Awards Show
Winners are announced live on January 3, 2027. It's a real show with presenters, prizes, and celebration.
