This is a comprehensive listing of the awards and nominations received by Scottish DJ and recording artist Calvin Harris. He rose to prominence in Europe in 2007 following the release of his debut album I Created Disco and two of its singles; "Acceptable in the 80s" and "The Girls". His follow up album, 2009s Ready for the Weekend, became his first album to debut atop the UK Albums Charts, and spawned the UK Number 1 single "I'm Not Alone" and the top five UK single "Ready for the Weekend". In 2010, Ready for the Weekend was nominated for Dance-Pop Album of the Year at the Hungarian Music Awards.

He achieved international recognition in 2012, after achieving success in mostly European markets, with the release of his third album 18 Months which saw Harris step back from performing vocals in favour of collaborating with guest artists instead. The internationally successful single "We Found Love", which features vocals from Rihanna, was nominated for numerous awards, winning the Grammy Award for Best Music Video at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards in 2013.[1] Harris has received six Grammy Awards nominations, winning one, with the most recent nomination in 2024, for the Grammy Award for Best Pop Dance Recording for his single "Miracle" which features vocals from Ellie Goulding.

Harris has been nominated for a total of 23 BRIT Awards, winning three as of 2024. His most recent win at the BRIT Awards was at the 2024 ceremony, winning the Brit Award for British Dance Act.[2] He is a recipient of the Brit Award for British Producer of the Year and Brit Award for British Single of the Year in 2019.[3]

Elsewhere, he has been nominated for fifteen Billboard Music Awards (winning the award for Top Dance/Electronic Artist in 2015), six American Music Awards nominations (winning the American Music Award for Favorite Electronic Dance Music Artist twice in 2014 and 2015 respectively),[4] thirteen MTV Europe Music Awards nominations (winning the award for Best Electronic Act at the 2014 ceremony)[5] and fifteen MTV Video Music Awards nominations (winning four – Video of the Year for "We Found Love" and Best Electronic Video for "Feel So Close" in 2012, and Best Male Video for "This Is What You Came For" and Best Electronic Video for "How Deep Is Your Love" in 2016).[6]

In 2013 he received a Ivor Novello Award, and appeared on Debrett's 2017 list of the most influential people in the United Kingdom.[7] He topped Forbes' list of the world's highest-paid DJs for six consecutive years from 2013 to 2018.
