Nominate for the Narromine Region Business Awards

👉 Nominations have now closed.

The next step - businesses who have been nominated will enter a submission for the awards.

__________

You can nominate a business — or your own business — for the Narromine Region Business Awards 2026.

Once a nomination is submitted, the business will be invited to complete a formal submission based on the criteria for each category. These submissions will then be assessed by an independent judging panel.

Finalists will be announced, with winners revealed at the Awards Night on Saturday, 1 August 2026.

Who can nominate?

Anyone can submit a nomination — including business owners, employees, customers and community members.

How to Nominate

Businesses can be nominated for more than one category, and a separate submission will be required for each category they choose to enter.

Importantly, a business only needs to be nominated once to be eligible.

Entry is free and can be submitted:
• Online via the form below
• Via paper forms available in Tomingley, Trangie and Narromine
• Posted to PO Box 99, Narromine NSW 2821

All entries must be received by the closing date. Late or incomplete entries may not be accepted.

What happens next?

Once nominations close (30 April 2026), each nominated business will be contacted by the Narromine Business Collective and provided with a submission pack (from 18 May 2026). This will outline the categories they are eligible for and what is required.

Businesses can then choose which categories to proceed with and submit a separate entry for each.

For full timing details, please refer to the Key Dates on the Business Awards page.

Award Categories

With 15 award categories, the Awards recognise businesses of all sizes and industries — from new and emerging businesses to established operators, individuals and community contributors.

You can view the full categories and criteria on this page.

Public Voting Categories

There are three award categories decided by public vote.

For these categories, nominated businesses or individuals do not need to complete a submission. Instead, all nominees will go straight to a public vote, with the winners determined by the community.
