Love Bedford – Xtra Xmas Sparkle

This Christmas, Bedford businesses will be making an extra special effort to make their shops look fabulously festive.

A window wonderland competition is being launched where the public can vote for their choice among the displays of decorations.

Last time 100s voted for their favourite shop windows and we are hoping people will come into town to support the 2020 campaign.

Full details on how to vote can be found on www.lovebedford.co.uk or on Love Bedford FB, Instagram and Twitter Meanwhile, businesses, via BedfordBID, are once again lighting up the town with their Xtra Xmas lights. The Xtra Xmas lights can be seen here:

Sadly, there will be no lights switch-on event with Santa and his Sleigh due to Covid restrictions, but nevertheless the lights and shop windows will be on throughout December.
