Whilst the Lithgow Halloween street carnival has been cancelled for 2021, Lithgow Halloween Digital 2021 returns with the online Best Dressed competition and the popular Lithgow Halloween Smartphone Film Competition.

The Lithgow Halloween Best Dressed competition is offering $4,500 in prizes. Similar to the popular competition run in 2020 there will be multiple categories and plenty of prizes. More details of how to enter will follow soon. Entries will close midnight 30th October 2021, with an independent panel judging the entries, with winners announced in the first week of November 2021.
The second component of Lithgow Halloween Digital 2021 is the highly successful Lithgow Halloween Smartphone Film Competition. Lithgow Tourism and Events has once again teamed up with SF3 Smartfone Flickfest to provide support and specialist judging.
