Light Up Burlington 2026

3rd Annual Holiday Storefront Competition

Shop Local. Shine Bright.

It's time to make Burlington shine brighter than ever!

The Burlington Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce the return of the 3rd Annual Light Up Burlington Holiday Storefront Competition, taking place November 28 – December 20, 2026!

And this year, we're expanding the holiday magic across ALL of Burlington!

What began as a festive storefront decorating competition along E. Fairhaven Avenue is growing into a citywide celebration of local businesses, holiday creativity, and community spirit.

We're inviting Burlington businesses to transform their storefronts into festive holiday displays, creating a wonderful opportunity for residents and visitors to explore our community, discover local favorites, and support the businesses that make Burlington special.

Whether you're admiring the twinkling lights, discovering a new favorite shop, or simply enjoying the holiday atmosphere, Light Up Burlington is all about bringing our community together while encouraging everyone to SHOP LOCAL!
