The Whanganui Chronicle's Light Up Your Home competition is back, offering businesses and members of the public the chance to share their festive creations with the city.
Supported by key sponsor Versatile, the competition will run from December 1 until Christmas Eve, with businesses and private residences competing for eight prize packs across six categories.
All properties entering the competition will be advertised in the Chronicle and on social media, so the public can tour the entrants in the lead-up to Christmas.
This year, there will be an overall winner as well as an award for the best business display.

A Best New Entrant award is also up for grabs this year, as well as a Best Garden Display award.
NZME Whanganui commercial team leader Gene Toyne says the competition has been a community favourite for the past few years, and the company is excited to bring it back.
"The event is always well-supported by the community who flock to see the festive displays, and it's great we're able to bring the event back, particularly in the times we're in.
"A particular thanks goes to the multiple Whanganui businesses supporting the event, ensuring the show can go on."
