Terms and Conditions

Promoter Expedia Australia Pty Limited (ABN 12 101 694 946), Level 17, 1 Martin Place, Sydney NSW 2000.
Competition Period 12.01am (AEDT) on 08/10/2024 to 11.59pm (AEDT) on 10/10/2024.
Who can enter? Only Australian residents who are aged 18 or over.
Who can’t enter? Directors, officers, management and employees (and their immediate families) of:

  • (a) the Promoter; and
  • (b) the agencies, companies or participating premises associated with this competition.
Where will the competition run? The competition will run via a physical activation onsite at Queensbridge Square, in Southbank, Melbourne, and also online at www.wotif.com/vc/blog/summerescape (Website).
Entry instructions There are two ways you can enter this competition:

  1. Entry Method 1 – physical activation at Queensbridge Square
    From 8am – 6pm (AEDT) of the Competition Period, you must:

    • (a) attend the Wotif’s Great Summer Escape physical activation at Queensbridge Square in Southbank, Melbourne;
    • (b) once you have been verified by the Promoter’s representative at the activation that you are 18+, enter the game room where you will have a maximum time limit of 3 minutes to complete a series of puzzles to unlock the doors in the game room and collect a token for each door you unlock;
    • (c) once your 3 minute time limit is up, and only if you have collected at least 1 token, you can enter the draw by using the iPad device provided by the Promoter’s representative where you must fill in the online entry form including by providing your name, phone number, email address, confirmation you are 18+, and the number of tokens you collected.

    Each token translates to one entry into the draw. Only the Promoter’s representative at the activation can verify if a token is validly collected.

    See ‘Activation Terms’ section below for conditions and further details about the activation.

    You can participate in the activation as an individual or as a team (max 6 people per team). If you are participating as a team, and the team collects at least 1 token in the allocated time limit, each participant (as long as they are aged 18+ and are a valid entrant as per these Terms and Conditions) will receive the same number of entries as tokens collected by the team. For example, if a team of 4 people collects 2 tokens in the 3 minute time limit, each participant in the team will be given 2 entries into the draw (provided that each participant fills in an entry form). For clarity, children under the age of 18 may participate in a team with their parent/guardian. Parents/guardians are responsible for and must supervise the child while taking part in the activation. For clarity, any team participants under the age of 18 will not receive an entry and any token(s) found by a participant under the age of 18 will count towards the team’s total collected tokens, which will be the same number of entries that each valid entrant (who is over 18+, including any parents/guardians) will receive.

    If you did not collect a token, you will not receive an entry into the draw via this entry method (however, you can enter via Entry Method 2, see below).
    Max 1 turn in the game per person (either individually or as a team) per day.

  2. Entry Method 2 – via the Website During the Competition Period:
    • (a) visit the Website to locate the competition page;
    • (b) follow the prompts to solve the picture puzzle shown on screen; and
    • (c) once you’ve successfully solved the puzzle, fill out and submit the online entry form, including by providing your name, phone number, email address, confirmation that you are 18+ and CAPTCHA test, to receive 1 entry into the draw.

    Max 1 entry per person for Entry Method 2.

    The Promoter is not responsible if your mobile device/desktop is not sufficiently capable for the purpose of submitting an entry.

Activation Terms To participate in the activation game room, you must follow and agree to the Promoter’s instructions and full rules at all times (which will be made available for participants to read before they enter the game room). You will be required to sign a Disclaimer and Release Form prior to being allowed to participate in the activation. You must not engage in unsportsmanlike conduct or act in any manner which the Promoter or the Promoter’s representative considers reckless or inappropriate. You must not consume any alcohol, before participating, and you must not use any performance enhancing device or drug. The Promoter or the Promoter’s representative may disqualify any participant who fails to comply with the Promoter’s instructions, the game rules or these Terms and Conditions.
The Promoter’s representative reserves the right to remove/disqualify (or deny entry to) any participant if they form the reasonable view that a participant is in breach of the rules of the game, are behaving aggressively or demonstrate unsportsmanlike/reckless/inappropriate behaviour, or are otherwise in breach of these Terms and Conditions.
All decisions with respect to the conduct and running of the physical activation will be as determined by the Promoter’s representative/s in their reasonable discretion.
How many winners will there be and how will they be chosen? There will be 3 winners determined in respect of this competition; 1 major winner, 1 minor winner and 1 runner up winner.
Entries received from both Entry Methods will be combined for the purposes of the draw.
