CHARLOTTE, N.C., Dec. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The holidays look a little different this year with many traditional gatherings and activities on hold, which is why Belk is bringing customers new virtual offerings to celebrate the season in safe and festive ways. Throughout December, Belk is delighted to host several activities, including an online holiday home decorating contest, free phone calls from Santa, and surprising shoppers with gift cards for the value of their order when they use our Free In-store or Curbside pickup.

"People are changing their normal plans and looking for new ways to enjoy the holidays safely," said Lisa Harper, Belk CEO. "We wanted to continue being a part of our customers' holiday traditions, but we reimagined those experiences so we're connecting in the safest way possible. We're excited that we can still come together and find new ways to celebrate."

Beginning December 1^st, Belk will launch its first-ever Holidays at Home Contest encouraging customers to post a photo or video of their house or favorite holiday-inspired room on Facebook or Instagram, tagging @Belk and #BelkHolidaysAtHome2020 for a chance to win a gift.
