The 2026 Business Excellence Awards will once again unite the region’s most innovative and high‑achieving businesses for an evening dedicated to celebration and recognition.

As the flagship event on the local business calendar, it consistently draws strong community interest, media attention, and engagement from across the business sector.

This year’s awards night will be held on Thursday, 15 October.

We’re enhancing this year’s event by inviting local businesses and catering providers to take an active role in shaping the celebration.

Council is calling for expressions of interest from those interested in hosting the awards, providing catering, or offering both services. We also welcome and encourage collaboration between venues and caterers.

By completing this short pre‑screening form, you will help us understand your capabilities and vision.

A Council representative will then be in touch to explore the opportunity further.

Enquiries can be forwarded to the Economic Development Team on (03) 5871 9222, or by emailing business@moira.vic.gov.au
