Entries are divides into five categories: small, medium and large business, community window and overall winner. The winner of each of these categories will be determined completely by the public vote.
There will also be a judges’ choice award chosen by this year’s judges Constable Simon Crowcroft, Jersey Chamber of Commerce CEO Murray Norton and radio presenter Ashlea Tracey.
Pictured: The competition is being run by the Parish of St. Helier who hopes that it will encourage shoppers to buy local.
Winning shop owners with the most popular displays will receive a certificate and a sticker and the overall winner will also receive the window display trophy.
The competition will be launching on Thursday and voting will open the day after. Voters will be in with the chance of winning prizes themselves from a hamper to gift vouchers.
Commenting on the competition, Constable Crowcroft said: “I applaud this exciting and fun initiative… [I] encourage all retailers to participate and make this Christmas really special.”
Votes can be cast by emailing Town Centre Manager Daphne East at daphne.east@posh.gov.je, online here or on a voting slip which are available at all participating stores.
