The 16th annual Property Brokers Hawke's Bay Charity Auction raised $100,000 for Cancer Society Hawke's Bay.
The sellout evening had 400 people in attendance and included a varied range of 52 auction lots - from cases of wine to chainsaws and weedwackers.
Property Brokers Hawke's Bay regional manager Joe Snee said organisers were a bit anxious about how the event would go, having cancelled it twice last year due to Covid-19 restrictions.

The success of the evening was a great indicator, he said.
