#hogsbackxmasinjuly Social Media Competitions

#hogsbackxmasinjuly will this year be rewarding active participation in x-mas activities, events and serious shopping reporting, through the use of social media. There will be lots of prizes up for grabs (earphones, speakers, cellphone and lots more from our stall owners) to get everybody tweeting and Facebooking about the event.

So how can you become part of this buzz? All tweets and Facebook posts and comments will earn you an entry into our random prize draw. So get started immediately! Some of the categories that will put you in strong contention for a prize are:

  • Stall Mania poses: 
    Visit as many as you can of our exhibitor stalls and strike a pose with the friendly stall owner/goods. Be sure to capture it with your camera and tweet/Facebook it making sure that you include the hashtag #hogsbackxmasinjuly anywhere in your tweet/Facebook post.

  • QR code scavenger hunt
    We will be running a separate competition for the bright folk visiting the festival. Be sure to install a QR code reader (e.g. Quickmark) on your cellphone so that you can scan clues to solve some riddles about Hogsback.
