The contest is open from 12 November to 15 December.

It offers five categories:

1. Best Business Display

Window and/or storefront

2. Best Small Display

Garden display, rooftop display or window display

3. Best Large Display

Full yard and/or building display

4. Traditional Display

Timeless Christmas scenes

5. Community Choice Award

City of Casey Mayor Cr Stefan Koomen said the contest is more than festive fun.

“It’s a way for neighbours to get to know each other and spread cheer across our streets. A little sparkle goes a long way this time of year,” he said.

For those who would rather celebrate others’ creativity, you are invited to vote for your favourite display.

Entering is easy. Take a photo of your display, choose your category and submit your details for your chance to win.
