Welcome to the 2026 People’s Choice Contest!
The nomination phase will run from January 7th through January 21st, 2026. You can nominate your favorite business, person, or place once per day, every day, during the nomination period to help them secure a top spot on the 2026 People’s Choice ballot.
The top finalists in each category will move forward into the voting phase in February.
It’s free to nominate, but we ask that you keep nominations within approximately a 15-mile radius of Grand Haven, MI (between Muskegon and Holland, as far east as Coopersville).
To upgrade your nomination to a Featured Listing or for contest inquiries, please contact Audra at afitzpatrick@
