Too broke to afford a ticket to Electric Picnic? Too old to deal with dirty muddy tents and queuing for portaloos? Yeah, me too. Thankfully, the kind organisers of the picnic have once again teamed up with War Child Ireland to offer a competition to win two VIP tickets so you can spend your festival in comfort.
The fantastic prize, worth €2000, includes all this great stuff:
• 2 weekend VIP tickets to Electric Picnic music festival
• Accommodation in a unique eco-friendly myhab tent
• Myhab tent is furnished with cushioned double bed, light and bedside locker
• Fantastic outdoor furniture
• Boutique camping area and toilet/shower facilities
• Fresh cut flowers at your bedside and chocolates on your pillow
• Bottle of champagne
• Body & Soul voucher
• War Child t-shirts and cds
• Stereo and selected CDs
• Haagen Dazs ice-cream vouchers
To enter, text PICNIC to 57599, they'll reply with a simple question, and you reply with your answer and your name and address. Easy. Now, it does cost €2.50 per text to enter, but proceeds will go to help War Child Ireland and their work with local partner organisations to protect marginalised children - street children, child soldiers and children in prison - in places that are acutely affected by conflict such as Iraq, Afghanistan and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
