WINDOW DECORATING CONTEST

Each year, Downtown Marion Inc. partners with local business owners to host the highly anticipated Window Decorating Contest, an initiative designed to bring creativity and festive spirit to the heart of Marion. Businesses decorate their storefronts with elaborate and imaginative displays, transforming the downtown area into a lively and visually appealing destination.

Attracting Foot Traffic Through Festive Displays

This friendly competition not only enhances the beauty of downtown but also serves as a powerful tool to attract foot traffic, encouraging both locals and visitors to stroll through the streets, admire the displays, and explore the shops.

Fostering Holiday Spirit and Community Pride

During the holiday season, in particular, the decorated windows help create a warm and inviting atmosphere, adding a charming backdrop to downtown Marion’s vibrant seasonal events. By engaging the entire community—businesses, shoppers, and residents alike—the Window Decorating Contest fosters a sense of pride, promotes local shopping, and strengthens the bond between the community downtown businesses.
