HOW TO ENTER

As always, there are THREE main ways to get your name put into the metaphorical hat. If you do all three, you'll get three entries in the drawing:

#1: Log in to your Twitter account and follow VisitThePlace. Then be sure to send out this tweet:

#2: Sign up as a member right here on The Place Community and make a comment on THIS blog.

#3: Make sure you LIKE us on Facebook. Then leave us a comment telling us what you want to win.

And for this very special sweepstakes, there is a FOURTH way to enter. If you answer the questions below correctly, you'll get an additional three entries put into the drawing. With six total entries, that'll double your overall chances of winning!* 

  

#4: Answer the following three questions about SoCal entertainment. Please send your answers to [e-mail]. HINT: All answers can be found on VisitThePlace.com.

 

• How long does the figure-making process take at LA's Madame Tussaud's Hollywood?
  
• If you wanted to find a "tiki-tastic Happy Hour" in OC's Huntington Beach (a.k.a. Surf City), where would you go? 
  
• In SD's Balboa Park, how many art studios are housed in the Spanish Village Art Center? How many artists are represented?

HOW TO WIN

To make things a little more fun, one of our Ask-a-Local bloggers will be pulling the winner's name out of a genuine hat. That’s right, we’ll be jotting down your Twitter, The Place Community, and Facebook usernames onto little slips of paper and making this computer-age raffle just a little old-fashioned (don't worry... we'll recycle that paper, too). Once the name is drawn, we'll be contacting the winner in a DM (that’s a direct message, folks) so you can give us the info on how to get your winnings to you.

There will be ONE winner for this sweepstakes (a $1530 value). The winner will receive:

• Two (2) All Access Passes to film screenings at the Newport Beach Film Festival (valid April 29^th - May 4^th)
• Four (4) Newport Beach Film Festival Opening Night Film and Gala Tickets (April 28^th)
• Two (2) Newport Beach Film Festival Closing Night Film and Gala Tickets (May 5^th)

This raffle runs February 25^th, 3pm – March 13^th, 11:59pm. The winners will be announced on March 14^th. Thank you for stopping by VisitThePlace.com.

*You may enter this raffle up to six times. You are limited to one win per raffle. If you win this raffle, you are still eligible to enter (and win!) future raffles on The Place Community.

**Due to the enormous response our raffles have been receiving, please allow 2 to 3 weeks for delivery of your winnings. We promise to take care of all of our faithful followers as quickly as we can. Sorry, the winnings are non-transferable.
