Get Ready for the 2024 Christmas Lights Competition
Back
It’s time to light up Bedourie, Birdsville, and Betoota with your most creative and festive displays! Whether you're a business, a household, or a Station, we invite you to join in the fun and show off your Christmas spirit.
How to Enter:
- Pick up a registration form from one of our Visitor Information Centres in Bedourie or Birdsville, or download here.
- Circle your nominated town: Bedourie, Birdsville, or Betoota.
- Submit your name/business/station, and address details (must be located in the Diamantina Shire).
- Stations: Please send a video of your light display to visitors@diamantina.qld.gov.au
- All businesses are welcome, including Council buildings, police stations, health clinics, shops, and offices.
- Return your completed entry form to either the Bedourie Outback Visitor Information Centre (in person or via email to visitors@diamantina.qld.gov.au) or the Wirrarri Visitor Information Centre (in person or via email to info@diamantina.qld.gov.au).
Judging: The best part? The children of the Shire will be our official judges! They’ll take a tour of the towns, enjoy some ice cream, and review video submissions from the Stations. Judging will take place on December 19th at 7 pm, and the kids' decisions are final—so no bribing the judges!
Prizes: Prize packs of solar Christmas lights, valued at $300, will be awarded for:
- Best Business
- Best House
- Best Station (for each town)
Don’t miss your chance to brighten the holiday season! Good luck, and may the best display win!
