Light Up High River: Halloween Edition
October brings longer nights and shorter days,
The perfect invitation, some might say,
for ghosts, ghouls and gremlins to come out and play.
What is Light Up?
Light Up: Halloween Edition was inspired by the Christmas Light Up contest and became part of the High River Parades and Lights Society family. High River boasts an incredible number of Halloween enthusiasts - both residents and businesses - who create the most incredible displays each year. We would like to recognize those who lift the spirits of the community each year and help as many people as possible see their handiwork.

Answers to commonly asked questions.
Given busy schedules, we wanted to allow voters ample time to visit the entries at night and during the day.
Voting is open to everyone 18 years of age or older who enjoys Halloween decorations. If you don't live in High River, Alberta or don't have time visit all the entries, we encourage you to join the Facebook group Light Up High River. Many of the participants post pictures of their decorations in the group. You can make your voting choices based on the pictures.
An online map and list of participants will be posted at the start of voting. Watch for details! A downloadable PDF file will be available for those who can't access the online map.
Voting rundown:
- You can vote as often as you wish BUT only your last form will count.

Winners will be announced in the Light Up High River Facebook group and here on the website.
