Blog Post - November 4, 2024
Category: What's New
The holidays are around the corner, and Carlsbad Village is getting ready to shine brighter than ever. The 2024 Carlsbad Village Window Decorating Contest, sponsored by Carlsbad Magazine, is calling on local businesses to join the fun and transform their storefronts into festive works of art. It’s a chance to spread holiday cheer, bring more visitors downtown, and show off your creative spirit.
How to Join:
Participating is easy and a great way to celebrate the season while showcasing your business. Simply sign up here by Wednesday, November 27, 2024. Signing up ensures your business will be included on the interactive walking map on our website and entered into the contest.
Decorating Details:
Get those creative juices flowing and plan your display! While we hope all Village businesses will have their windows decorated and on display by our Small Business Saturday celebration on November 30th, when hundreds of people will be downtown supporting our Mainstreet merchants, the final deadline is December 4th in order to be put on the People's Choice Award Ballot. Remember, the sooner windows are on display, the longer the community can enjoy them!
Keep your decorations up through the end of December, so the holiday cheer can be enjoyed all season long.
When to Vote:
From December 6 to December 16, 2024, visitors and locals alike can vote for their favorite displays on the Carlsbad Village Association website. Awards include the “People’s Choice Award,” a special “Kid’s Favorite” chosen by the Boys & Girls Club, and the “Best Holiday Window 2024” award selected by an awesome panel of Carlsbad judges
Prizes and Recognition:
Winners will receive:
• A feature write-up with photos in the January/February edition of Carlsbad Magazine, along with social media coverage and a discounted ad package.
• A feature write-up with photos on the Carlsbad Village Association website along with dedicated Instagram and Facebook posts with images.
