ROLL up, roll up, tickets to the 2012 Heritage Bank Business Excellence Awards are on sale now.

Grab your ticket from the Warwick RSL club and secure a table before they are all gone.

Rose City Shoppingworld centre manager Jason Gard said the Southern Downs should brace itself for the best awards night yet.

"It's a great night, and this one should be bigger and better than ever," Mr Gard said.

The Business Excellence Awards are open to all who want to tag along and Mr Gard encouraged everyone to join in the night's proceedings.

"The tickets are aimed at anyone who wants to attend the event, but is usually filled with staff and business owners from those that have been nominated, or are sponsors," he said.

"A number of other business people also attend the night to be involved and see who wins on the night."

The awards night is a chance to get behind our local businesses and show them just how important they are to our community.

"The event is to recognise some of the work that is being done by businesses in Warwick and its surrounds," Mr Gard said.

"It lets everyone celebrate with like-minded people and other business people."

But don't just sit back if you're wanting to attend because tickets to these events have a tendency to sprint out the door like hot cakes.

"The capacity is 300 - and yes, they normally sell out for the event, so we encourage people to get in and get their tickets from the RSL," Mr Gard said.

"There isn't any bookings or purchases on the night at the door."

Attendees will enjoy a three-course sit-down meal with entertainment while they watch the award presentations.

The excitement begins at 7pm, but attendees are asked to arrive at 6pm to get seated and organised.

Tickets are $60, or $55 when buying a table.

Sales close at 5pm on Thursday, August 30, if they haven't sold out by then.

Ladies, put on your heels and cocktail dresses and gentlemen - suit up, because the Business Excellence Awards have a reputation of being a great night for all.

See you on September 1 at Kings Theatre, Warwick RSL.
