Spring Campaign 2024 Competition Rules
 

 
  1. Entrant must provide the correct code word in a DM to Donegal Tourism and at least one other tagged person AND the hashtag #LetsGoVisitDonegal in the comment section of the competition launch post published Thursday 22nd February 2024 will be accepted. DMs without the correct code word, emails, or messages elsewhere will not be accepted. 

  2. Only comments with at least one other tagged person AND the hashtag on the competition launch post published Thursday 22nd February 2024 will be accepted. Comments left on other Instagram posts or posts on any other social media channel will not be eligible. 

  3. You may comment as many times as you like to increase your chances of winning. 

  4. ONE winner will be selected at random on Monday 18th March via a random comment picker selected using Wask. If the first comment selected does not match a user who has also sent Go Visit Donegal a direct message on Instagram with the email signup code word, a new comment will be randomly selected. This process will be repeated until the first user with all of the above criteria is randomly chosen, and they will be the final winner.
