• Special fakefan award: Tony 'What's a Sevagram?' Berry
• Best fan artist who is not D. West: Sue Mason
• Best fan writer who is not Dave Langford: Mark Plummer
• Best year for the Next British Worldcon: removing all the votes for 'never' and 'infinity', they averaged the remaining votes to produce 2268. The award was given to Noel Collyer as his vote was closest, and he's now the chairman.
• Best one-shot produced at the convention: Marianne Cain

Writing on rasff on 18 February 1997, Alison Scott said, 'Overall it was a triffic fun convention, with little for which it could be criticised. Almost nothing, in fact.'
