The holidays may be over, but that doesn’t mean you need to take your decorations down.

Residents and businesses in Vaughan are invited to nominate themselves, a neighbour or a business whose lights continue to shine bright.

The city’s new Festival of Lights program will recognize those who go above and beyond to decorate their homes and properties with exceptional pride in their light displays.

The program provides an opportunity for residents to celebrate each other’s cultures and Vaughan’s diversity.

Email nominations to festivecelebrations@vaughan.ca by Thursday, Feb. 1. They should include the property owner’s name, address and photos of the festive lights.

Entries will be scored based on:

Whether design incorporates the use of energy-efficient lights

The overall aesthetic of the property (i.e. is it visually appealing?)

The use of lights and decorations, creativity in design and whether the property is well maintained.
