Cowra’s best Christmas lights dislays have been on show since late November, with the winners of the Cowra Tourism Corporation’s Cowra Christmas Lights Competition to be announced on Friday. This year’s lights displays have been spectacular, with a number of addresses in the running for each category in this year’s competition.

Entrants have battled it out for a share in $5,000 worth of Cowra Cash Cards this year, across the categories of Best House ($1,500 Cowra Cash prize), Runner-up ($1,000 Cowra Cash prize), Best Village/Rural Property ($1,500 Cowra Cash prize), People’s Choice ($1,000 Cowra Cash prize), Best Business Dislay (Commemorative Plaque prize), and Best Street (Commemorative Street Sign prize).
