Kyneton has a festive glow thanks to a new Kyneton Christmas Collective lights and decoration competition this year.
The newly formed collective is a small group of passionate community members planning Christmas activities in Kyneton throughout December.
A lights and decoration competition has been a much-anticipated event with prizes awarded for the residential displays.
The Kyneton Christmas Collective has released this year’s winners and highlighted displays as follows:
First prize: 11 Jesse Evelyn Crescent
Second prize: 14 Clowes Street
Highly commended: 9 Windridge Way
Highly commended: 15 Jesse Evelyn Crescent
Most Resourceful: 97 Beauchamp Street (for their gingerbread cubby house)
KCC committee member Alice Elston said the collective had brought the community together as planned.
“Christmas is a time when our community should come together, and the events organised by the collective have done exactly this,” she said.
“I grew up in Kyneton and have such fond memories of Christmas back then, so we we’re so excited that our own kids will be able to look back on their Christmases in Kyneton in the same way.”
Watch this space. The collective has plenty more planned for 2025.
