The City of Richmond is inviting residents to help beautify their streets in 2026 by voting for their favourite street banner designs. Residents can view and vote from this year’s 20 creative finalist designs at LetsTalkRichmond.ca now through 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 25, 2025. Designs are also available to view at richmond.ca/banners, and votes can be submitted by email to ParksPrograms@richmond.ca.
This year, the contest received 470 design submissions to reflect Richmond’s unique characteristics through the following 10 themes: Active Living; Culture and Heritage; Community; Discover; Diversity; Island City; Nature; Play; Sustainability; and The Arts. A judging panel of Richmond artists narrowed down submissions to the final 20. The 10 designs (one from each theme) that receive the most votes from the public will be named winners of the 2026 Street Banner Contest.
The winning images will be printed on over 1,000 street banners. They will be installed on banner poles from March 2026 to February 2027 to enhance community spirit and beautify the downtown core and gateways.
Richmond’s street banner contest is a part of the broader Partners for Beautification program that invites community members to become actively involved in shaping a cleaner, greener and more sustainable Richmond. For more information on this program, visit richmond.ca/beautification.
