MARKET traders are being urged to compete for the title of best dressed stall in the run-up to Christmas.
Traders at Darlington's covered and open markets are being asked to deck the stalls with decorations to create a festive atmosphere for the contest, which is open to all stall holders.
There are three prizes - the winner gets £50 and two runner-ups get £25 each. The National Market Traders' Federation is organising the competition. Judging is on Monday, December 19.
