The Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Puppetry is an annual award presented by Drama Desk in recognition of achievements in theatre across collective Broadway, off-Broadway and off-off-Broadway productions in New York City. The award was first presented at the 1998 ceremony, as the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Puppet Design,[1] then suspended from use until the 2017 ceremony. The current name was introduced as of the 2023 ceremony.

Unlike some Drama Desk Awards, the award for Outstanding Puppetry combines plays and musicals into a single category.
