Wigan Borough Icons

Each year we invite children ages 5-11 to design an illuminated artwork of their favourite Wigan Borough Icon for Light Night Wigan! 

The 3 winning entries are chosen by a panel of judges including Hacker T Dog, Blackpool Illuminations, Things That Go On Things and Antonio Capelao (Soho Kids Xmas Lights). The chosen entries are translated into life-size neon artworks for Light Night Wigan.  

Competition for 2025 is now closed
