The competitions are open to all Blocks and Patios as well as all Shop Windows. The theme is Gibraltar National Day with all entries required to display the red and white colours prominently, if not exclusively.
Originality of decoration, time, effort and impact will form the criteria upon which the judges will select the three winners.
Prizes will be awarded to the three winning entries in each competition.
Entry forms can be collected and handed back when completed, at the John Mackintosh Hall reception, Monday to Friday between 9.30am and 4.30pm.
