I've honestly no idea what the answer is, but when you google "ig-Nobel prize dinner" you get summaries along the lines of:
or in the case of the Ig Nobel, far beyond a plaque and a free dinner
Which invite to think that, yes: there is such a dinner, and it's basically the only thing you get on top of a plaque.
