Britain's Funniest Class 2026

WHO WILL BE CROWNED BRITAIN’S FUNNIEST CLASS?

The curtain’s up, let the giggles commence! Beano’s Ministry of Mischief has narrowed down hundreds of side-splitting entries, and it’s time for the top ten finalists to take centre stage! 

A huge thank you to all the blamtastic teachers and their pupils who entered this year’s Britain’s Funniest Class competition – your jokes had us in stitches!

The final decision is then handed over to YOU, the country's top mischief makers - who will vote to crown Britain’s Funniest Class 2026.

Choose wisely… You only get one chance to vote for your favourite joke before Friday, 15th May, deadline at 4pm (UK time).

One lucky voter will be selected at random to win a Beano family illustration drawn by a Beano artist.

The class that is voted as the funniest for their joke will win:

  • A bespoke Beano illustration of the class with their teacher

  • A ‘Golden Gnasher’ medal for every pupil

  • A one-year Beano subscription for every pupil

  • A Beano comic school subscription for your library

  • A day trip to a Gulliver's theme park location of their choice

  • One copy of the Beano Joke Book for each pupil in the winning class

Good luck to the final ten, and may the funniest class claim the ultimate crown!
