Organised by Cirencester Chamber of Commerce, the annual competition saw businesses go all out in making their front window displays as seasonal as possible. Residents and visitors were asked to tour the town as part of the competition and vote for their favourite window display, while adhering to social distancing rules. Awarded the Peter Stringfellow Memorial Trophy this year was Thirty Six, who can proudly display it in their shop for the year. Their popular window featured The Grinch and a poem, inspired by Dr Seuss, in support of the Shop Local campaign.
