Every year, our community shows us what's possible. The 2026 Elevate Rapid City Business Awards Night is our chance to stop and celebrate the businesses, non-profits, and individuals who are doing the hard work of building a stronger Black Hills region; the people who go the extra mile, lead the change that matters, and make Rapid City the place people want to be.

Join us on Tuesday, June 9th as we recognize this year's honorees across eight award categories from Small Business of the Year and Emerging Business of the Year to the Culture of Excellence Award and the prestigious George and Granite Awards. These aren't just trophies. They're a testament to the entrepreneurs, leaders, and community champions who are elevating the Rapid City economy for all.

Your ticket includes a plated meal, a drink ticket, and an evening of genuine connection with the people who make this community great. Come ready to network, celebrate, and be inspired.

Whether you're here to cheer on a finalist, connect with fellow investors, or simply be part of something bigger than business, this is the night for it. We encourage you to dress up* and enjoy a fun evening of networking, fun, and celebration!

TICKETS MUST BE PURCHASED BY END OF DAY JUNE 3rd!
