Share your Christmas sparkle and Illuminate Ilkley



As Ilkley’s virtual Christmas lights switch-on takes place this Saturday at 5pm, Team Sparkle at Ilkley Town Council have launched two competitions.


Young and old alike could win a fantastic prize from one of Ilkley’s proud local businesses by getting involved from home to accompany the on-screen magic on Saturday.


Competition 1:

Is for children up to the age of 11; design and make a homemade Christmas decoration and then send or share your photo of it by using the hashtag #IlluminateIlkley to enter via Facebook or Instagram or send to IlluminateIlkley@gmail.com


Competition 2:

Team Sparkle would love for you to share your Christmas joy this year from the comfort and safety of your own home. Decorate your home for the festive season as normal and share your very own Christmas lights countdown and switch on with the rest of Ilkley.


To enter the 2nd competition, all you need to do is record your very own 10 second Christmas Light Countdown and share the video via Instagram or Facebook using #IlluminateIlkley or send to IlluminateIlkley@gmail.com


Both competitions will close on Friday 11th December with winners announced week commencing 14th of December.


Team Sparkle will be sharing some of the entries on the Ilkley Town Council Facebook page during December.
