ANNUAL BANQUET

The Norfolk Area Chamber of Commerce 57th Annual Award Banquet will be held in April, 2027.

The Annual Chamber Banquet is the Chamber’s premier annual gathering—an elevated awards banquet recognizing leadership, innovation, community impact, and the essential role of agribusiness in our region’s growth. Join us for an elegant evening as we celebrate the people, partners, and businesses who help Norfolk thrive.

Share in the growth of our Community and the excitement for the new year!

In 2026 we were surrounded by fresh florals, soft spring hues, and the spirit of community, we look forward to an evening that celebrates the growth, connection, and success that make Norfolk truly special.

And keeping with our Southern Garden Party theme, we enhanced the experience with a grazing-style menu featuring charcuterie and curated bites. Guests were invited to enjoy the evening at their own pace—visiting the food stations, refilling their plates, and mingling throughout the celebration.
