Downtown Bozeman's 45th Annual Christmas Stroll
Poster Design Contest
The Annual Christmas Stroll, one of Downtown Bozeman’s most beloved and longest-standing traditions, is right around the corner! Each year, thousands of residents and visitors gather to kick off the holiday season with lights, music, and community cheer.
To set the stage for this year’s celebration, the Downtown Bozeman Association is excited to announce the 2025 Christmas Stroll Poster Design Contest!
Local artists are invited to submit original designs that capture the holiday spirit and sense of community that makes the Christmas Stroll so special. The winning artwork will become the official poster of the 2025 Christmas Stroll and will be featured prominently throughout the season.
The winning poster design will be used as print and digital marketing for the event and be featured on the cover of the “Official” Christmas Stroll special issue of the Bozeman Daily Chronicle. The issue will also include an article featuring the Christmas Stroll poster artist.
As a thank you, the winning artist will also receive a $200 cash prize, courtesy of the Downtown Bozeman Association, along with recognition on the organization’s website, social media, and press releases.
