HONOLULU — The City invites O‘ahu residents to submit entries for the 2026 Holiday Wreath Contest. The contest is part of the Honolulu City Lights celebration and
wreaths will be on display from Dec. 5, 2026 - Dec. 30, 2026, in the Lane Gallery of Honolulu Hale. The contest theme this year is “Christmas in the Country.”

There are three contest divisions:

•   Adult, open to any individual age or group with participants 18 years of age and older;

•   Youth, ages 17 and younger;

•   A special theme category for wreaths that depict the “Christmas in the Country” theme, open to any individual or group.

Winners in each division receive a ribbon and monetary award. Entries are judged on workmanship, creativity and use of materials. Wreaths in the theme category are judged on how well they incorporate the theme into the wreath. The first-place prize is $150; second place is $100; and third place is $75. The overall Best in Show wreath will receive the Mayor’s Holly Award of $200. In addition, six Judges’ Choice Awards are presented with monetary prizes of $25 each. Each entrant, individual or group, may win only one award.

Wreath guidelines and entry forms can be found on our Honolulu City Lights website at hnlcitylights.com

Entries will be accepted on Monday, November 30, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., at Lane Gallery of Honolulu Hale, 530 South King Street. Each wreath must include a contest entry form; early or late entries will not be accepted. Winners will be notified by Friday, December 4, 2026.
