The following is a List of awards and nominations received by Sir Michael Gambon.

Sir Michael Gambon was an Irish-English actor known for his extensive work on stage and screen. Over his six decade long career he received numerous accolades including four British Academy Film Awards, a Critics' Choice Movie Award, two Screen Actors Guild Awards and three Laurence Olivier Awards as well as nominations for two Primetime Emmy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and a Tony Award.

Gambon started his professional acting career with the Royal National Theatre with Sir Laurence Olivier. For his roles on the West End he received three Laurence Olivier Award for A Chorus of Disapproval (1985), A View from the Bridge (1987), and Man of the Moment (1990). For his Broadway debut he was nominated for the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play for his role in revival of David Hare's Skylight (1996)

Gambon won four British Academy Television Award for Best Actor for playing Philip Marlow in The Singing Detective (1987), Squire Hamley in Wives and Daughters (2000), John Harrison in Longitude (2001), and Raymond Symon in Perfect Strangers (2002). He also was nominated for two Primetime Emmy Awards for portraying Lyndon B. Johnson in the HBO film Path to War (2002), and playing the family patriarch, Mr. Woodhouse in the BBC One series Emma (2009). On film, he received two Screen Actors Guild Awards for Outstanding Ensemble Cast in a Motion Picture for Robert Altman's murder-mystery Gosford Park (2001), and Tom Hooper's historical drama The King's Speech (2010).

In 1998, he was given the title of Knight Bachelor; awarded by the British Government in the 1998 New Year Honours.[1] The investiture by Queen Elizabeth II took place on 17 July 1998.[2] Gambon, despite being Irish, retained British citizenship making the Knighthood substantive rather than honorary. In 1990 he was named Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE), awarded by the British Government in the 1990 New Year Honours.[3] and invested by The Prince of Wales. In 2020, he was listed at No. 28 on The Irish Times's list of Ireland's greatest film actors.[4]
