Note
  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

This is a list of awards and nominations earned by American rock band Alice in Chains.

As of 2019, Alice in Chains has received eleven Grammy nominations.[1] Their first nomination was for the song "Man in the Box", nominated for Best Hard Rock Performance in 1992.[1] The album Dirt was nominated in the same category in 1993.[1] Six more songs were nominated between 1995 and 2011.[1] The album Jar of Flies was nominated for Best Recording Package in 1995.[2] The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here was nominated for Best Engineered Album, Non Classical in 2014,[3] and the album Rainier Fog was nominated for Best Rock Album in 2019.[4]
