The economic endowment has almost doubled compared to last year's 5,000 euros, when around 40 businesses participated in the initiative. Interested establishments can register until November 30 through the City Council's Electronic Office.
The window decorations, which must be related to Christmas and its traditional motifs, must be displayed from December 6 to January 7, 2027. The winners will be chosen through a public vote on the website leganesnavidad2026.es, which will be active until December 15.
The Councilor for Commerce and Local Development, José Marín, highlighted the importance of reviving this contest, which had not been held for years, to "make our local commerce visible and valued". "We continue to reinforce our commitment to recognize the effort of our merchants and I invite everyone to participate," he added.
The contest, promoted by the Department of Commerce and Local Development, aims to support, promote, and disseminate local commerce activity, as well as foster the Christmas atmosphere and encourage Leganés residents to stroll through the city streets and boost consumption in its establishments. All commercial and service establishments located within the municipality of Leganés, excluding large shopping centers, can participate.
The distribution of the 9,000 euros in prizes will be as follows: 3,400 euros for the first prize, 2,000 euros for the second, 1,675 euros for the third, and 275 euros for each of the prizes from fourth to tenth.
