Commemorative Lighting Request Form - City of Peterborough

Please complete this application to request an exterior commemorative lighting display at City Hall or the Centennial Fountain. This application is available for organizations that meet the criteria outlined in our Commemorative Lighting procedure.

The LED lighting system at City Hall turns on automatically at dusk and turns off at dawn.

The Centennial Fountain lighting display is on nightly from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. while the fountain is in operation, between May and October.

Commemorative lighting display requests may be for one day to a maximum of one week. The City of Peterborough strives to accommodate as many requests as possible. Where there are multiple requests in a given time period, we will communicate with the applicants to select an appropriate date for each event.

If you have questions about the application process, please contact the Communication Coordinator at 705-742-7777 ext. 1785 or by email at smackillican@peterborough.ca

Applications must be received at least three weeks before the request date.
