Feilding & District Promotion

25/08/2025

Congratulations to all our incredible nominees!
We are super excited to celebrate your achievements this Saturday night at the 2025 Feilding & District Impact Awards to be held at the Feilding Civic Centre.
Feilding & District Promotion are proud to host the 28th awards for our town and district.
These biennial awards go beyond recognising business performance.
They shine a light on people, businesses, and organisations whose actions have a positive impact on our local people, place, and planet.
We’re seeking out the changemakers, those who are not only successful in what they do, but are also driven by a strong sense of purpose and community - where thriving businesses are also helping to build thriving communities right here in friendly Feilding and across the Manawatū District.
THANK YOU & ENJOY!
