2025 Downtown Grayslake Holiday Window Competition

Visit Grayslake is excited to partner with the Grayslake Heritage Center & Museum for our 8th Annual Holiday Window Competition, taking place throughout downtown Grayslake. We invite shops, restaurants, salons, offices, and other businesses to decorate their storefronts to celebrate the 2025 holiday season. You will have the opportunity to vote for your favorite decorated window!

There are two ways to vote:

1. In Person

Starting November 28th at 4:00 PM, when you see a business you want to vote for, you can drop a voting slip into their ballot box. Not able to go inside? You can also visit the Grayslake Heritage Center & Museum, which will have a ballot box for every participating business.

2. Online

Starting November 29th at 5:00 PM, photos of each business will be posted on this page.

Each “like” = one vote.

The holidays are a beautiful time to stroll the streets of Grayslake's Historic Village Center. We’re sure you’ll find a new-to-you, unique retailer, restaurant, or other business that calls Grayslake home.

Voting ends on December 27, 2025
