2025 Christmas Lighting Contest Dates
THE CITY OF CHUBBUCK ANNOUNCES THE 2025 CHRISTMAS LIGHTING CONTEST DATES!
The most wonderful time of the year is here — and that means it’s time to turn Chubbuck into a twinkling winter wonderland! The City of Chubbuck is excited to announce the return of our Annual Holiday Decorating Contest, inviting all residents and businesses to show off their brightest, most creative holiday displays. Whether you’re competing for the “Clark Griswold Award” or just want to spread some seasonal cheer, this is your chance to light up the city and make spirits bright!
This friendly competition is open to everyone within Chubbuck city limits and is a perfect way to celebrate the holidays, build community pride, and bring smiles to neighbors and visitors alike.
Categories include:
- Best Animation
- Most Colorful
- Most Traditional
- Spirit of the Season (2 winners)
- Best Commercial/Business Display
- Clark Griswold Award (most lights!)
- Best Overall Display
And for those who love teamwork—rally your neighbors for a chance to win Best Decorated Neighborhood, Street, or Cul-de-Sac!
Again, this year, our judges are especially looking for creativity and something new. If your display looks just like last year’s, it may not catch their eye—so mix it up, add something fresh, and surprise us with your holiday magic!
If you see a home, business, or neighborhood that deserves recognition, send your nomination to ChubbuckLightsContest@gmail.com or message the City of Chubbuck on Facebook. Include the address, a photo, and which category you think they should win. Submissions are open until 5 p.m. on December 1st.
Judging Dates:
November 27 – December 7
Please keep your lights on from 6:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. each night so the judges can enjoy your display!
Judging will be based on curb appeal, considering only decorations visible from the street side of each property. Corner lots will be viewed from both sides. Judges will look for originality, design, creativity, and overall holiday impact — so think big, think bright, and think festive!
Winners will be announced on December 9th, with a special press release and celebratory yard signs delivered no later than December 10th. Winners will also be featured on the City of Chubbuck website, social media pages, and local news outlets.
So, grab your lights, your imagination, and your holiday spirit — and let’s make Chubbuck shine brighter than ever! Happy decorating, and may your holidays be merry and bright!
