Submitting Holiday Lights entries

Newsday chooses homes for the Holiday Lights edition based on nominations from homeowners or their friends, relatives and neighbors.

The deadline for 2013 submissions is Nov 30.

Some steps to help you get ready:

1 When filing your entry include photos of your 2013 display. Entries of previous displays will not be considered. Newsday begins asking for nominations in October.

2 See the Holiday Lights coupon and page 2 reminder for more details about nominations of decorated houses. Both include instructions for submitting displays.

3 Light displays featured in LI Life in the past four years are not eligible for submission but can be included in a listing of displays to visit across Long Island.
