Tickets are still available for Saturday's Westpac Rotorua Business Excellence Awards - with more than 600 already sold for the gala event.

The 25th anniversary awards night, featuring entertainment from Tiki Taane and Josh Leys, sees Rotorua businesses vying for a range of category awards and the supreme business of the year award.

Rotorua Chamber of Commerce chief executive Darrin Walsh said he was pleased with the number of tickets sold already - about 100 up on last year's event.

"The goal for this year was to sell 600 tickets."

Tickets would be available until tomorrow for those who still wanted to attend.

Mr Walsh said the calibre of the finalists up for awards was "very high".

The awards are taking place at the Rotorua Energy Events Centre.

Tickets are available from the Rotorua Chamber of Commerce and are $110 for singles, or $950 for tables of 10.
