Entrants must be 18+. Entrants must not use a false name or e-mail address or provide any false information when registering for use of the Platform/promotion. In the event of suspicious activity, the Promoter reserves the right to request and gather information or obtain further evidence to confirm the legitimacy of the entry/win. The Promoter may at its entire discretion refuse, remove, or suspend participation of entrants in the promotion at any time, for any reason. The Promoter may require entrants to provide proof that they are eligible.

    c. Two entry tickets for Hyde Park Winter Wonderland on 11 December 2024, entry time between 6pm and 7pm.

(together, the “Prize”).

 

The Prize is non-transferable and non-refundable. Whilst the Promoter will make every effort to honour the advertised Prize (in whole or in part), the Promoter reserves the right at its sole discretion to substitute the Prize with an alternative of equal or higher value (in whole or in part).

 

The winner is solely responsible for using the Ryanair DAC gift card to purchase flights to London from Dublin or Belfast and the terms and conditions of the Ryanair e-voucher will apply to any such purchase (Gift Card – Terms & Conditions – Ryanair Help Centre).

 

The Promoter is not responsible for any use or failure to use the Ryanair gift card, hotel booking voucher and/or the entry tickets for Winter Wonderland by the winner, or any acts and omissions of any third party in relation to any purchases. The winner is encouraged to review the terms and conditions of the respective vouchers/prizes and raise any issues with the providers directly:

 

For the avoidance of doubt, the Prize does not include travel/transportation costs outside of those specifically listed in the Prize list above, beverages, souvenirs, gratuities, car parking charges, excess baggage, additional excursions and attractions, or any other costs of a personal nature (including spending money) that are not explicitly set out in these terms and conditions and neither the Promoter nor any provider of any part of the Prize will be responsible for any such costs.

It will be the winner’s and (if applicable) their guest’s responsibility to take out at their own cost all relevant insurance (including but not limited to health and travel insurance, insurance for theft, loss and damage to property) which may be required or prudent to be taken. The winner and their guest must comply with any terms and conditions applied by any third parties during their enjoyment of the Prize (including but not limited to those applied by airlines, hotels, and other activity providers).

  1. Winner selection: The winner will be drawn by us at random on 25 November 2024 from all valid entries received throughout the Promotional Period.
  2. Winner notification: We will notify the winner on 25 November 2024 by tagging them in the comments of the promotional post on Instagram. Entrants are asked to check for updates and notifications to their account on the Platform.

The winner will be asked to claim the Prize by providing their full name and email address by direct message to @boostdrinksireland within 3 days of being notified of the win. The winner may be required to provide proof of age and identity, and any documentation as reasonably required by the Promoter to validate their eligibility for the Prize. The winner and their guest must both be 18+. Reasonable efforts will be made to contact the Prize winner. In the event that the Prize winner does not claim the Prize and does not provide the required details within 3 days of winner notification, the Promoter reserves the right to disqualify that winner and award the Prize to a reserve winner from the same Platform selected in the same manner. Reserve winners may have less time to respond. If, after approaching a reserve winner, the Promoter has failed to allocate the Prize, the Promoter shall not be obliged to approach any additional reserve winner and shall be entitled to withdraw the Prize and/or allocate it as the Promoter sees fit.

  1. Prize Delivery: We will deliver the Prize to the winner by email within 7 days of a successful Prize claim. The Promoter accepts no responsibility for failed delivery due to provision of false and/or incorrect contact details. Any Prize that is returned undelivered will be assumed unwanted.
  2. Data Controller: A.G. Barr p.l.c.. Your contact information will only be used and shared for the purpose of administering this promotion unless we have your consent and you have opted-in to receive future marketing communications. For our Privacy Policy, see: https://www.agbarr.co.uk/privacy-policy/. The details you submit must be true and up-to-date. We may also share your details with any third party helping us with the promotion (e.g. our marketing agencies).
  3. The winner’s name and/or social media handle may be used by us to name the winner. The winner’s surname and country of residence will be obtainable only by sending a stamped addressed envelope request to: FAO Boost Brand Manager – Boost Iced Coffee Festive Competition 2024 c/o A.G. BARR plc, Westfield House, 4 Mollins Road, Cumbernauld, G68 9HD, within 3 months of the respective closing date. If you wish to object to your surname and county of residence being made available, or request that we reduce the amount of information being made available, you must notify us either at the time you enter the promotion or when we contact you about your Prize. Please note that even if you do raise such an objection or request, we may still provide this information to the Advertising Standards Authority or other regulatory bodies if they request it. If your details change during the promotion, it is your responsibility to notify us otherwise you may miss out on the Prize.
  4. You must submit your own entry. Entrants who make an entry on someone else’s behalf will be disqualified at the Promoter’s discretion. Bulk, trade, group or third-party entries will not be accepted. Entries submitted using automated entry software or any other mechanical or electronic means that enable a person to enter repeatedly will not be accepted. The entry must be made directly by the person entering the promotion. Only genuine valid entries will be considered. If it becomes apparent that a participant is reposting the same content multiple times or using a computer(s) to circumvent this or any other condition by, for example, the use of ‘script’, ‘brute force’ or any other automated means, that person’s entries will be disqualified, and any Prize award will be void.
  5. We may carry out verification checks to confirm your eligibility to enter and/or to receive the Prize (including requesting proof of ID (e.g. a current passport or driver’s licence), or proof of address (e.g. a recent utility bill)).
  6. We will have no responsibility for, and will not accept, any entries that are lost, delayed, incomplete, illegible, damaged, or corrupted (including as a result of postal delays, technical issues with your mobile tablet, computer or connectivity, or technical issues with the Platform).
  7. We reserve the right to substitute any Prize (or an individual aspect of a Prize) for an alternative of equal or greater value where we deem it strictly necessary due to events outside our reasonable control. Winners may not transfer the right to accept their Prize to another person without our consent. We will not offer cash alternatives to any Prize. Prizes are not negotiable and non-refundable.
  8. Winners are responsible for any tax liability they incur as a result of accepting the Prize. Winners are encouraged to seek independent financial advice before accepting a Prize if the tax implications concern them.
  9. We may, at our sole discretion, arrange for an alternative winner to be selected on the same basis as the original winner if: (i) the original winner fails to take any of the steps necessary to claim their Prize as set out in these terms; (ii) we are unable to contact the original winner having made reasonable efforts to do so; (iii) the original winner fails any verification or eligibility checks; (iv) the original winner is disqualified in accordance with the promotion terms; or (v) the original winner is unable to accept their Prize for any reason.
  10. We reserve the right to disqualify you if you fail our verification checks or we reasonably believe that you have: (i) breached any of the promotion terms; (ii) cheated or jeopardised the operation or integrity of the promotion; or (iii) gained an unfair advantage or won using fraudulent, dishonest, or unfair methods.
  11. We reserve the right to suspend, vary or cancel the promotion where we deem it strictly necessary due to events outside our reasonable control (including where technical issues are affecting the proper running of the promotion or where we suspect fraud).
  12. If your profile on the Platform contains any posts, text, videos, images or references which are of a defamatory, obscene, offensive, hateful, illegal or otherwise inappropriate nature (including anything we consider to be racist, homophobic, abusive, sexually explicit or discriminatory to anyone) then we reserve the right to disqualify you from the promotion. Additionally, if you comment or post anything on our social media channels which we consider to be inappropriate, we reserve the right to: (i) hide or delete such comments/posts or block your profile; and/or (ii) disqualify you from the promotion.
  13. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable to you for any loss, injury or damage which: (i) you suffer by entering the promotion; or (ii) you suffer in the enjoyment of any Prize. However, nothing will exclude or limit our liability in respect of personal injury or death caused by our negligence or for any fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation committed by us.
  14. Sometimes, through reasons outside of the Promoter’s control, the Platform, or Promoter’s website, (as with any website) may not be accessible. The Promoter cannot guarantee continuous, uninterrupted access to the Platform and/or the Promoter’s website. No responsibility will be accepted for any difficulties in entering, claiming or any entries/claims delayed or corrupted. The Promoter will have no liability for any loss arising out of such an event.
  15. Our decision in relation to all matters relating to our promotions will be final.
  16. Each of the promotion terms is separate from the others. This means that if any promotion term is held to be invalid then it will be deleted but the remaining promotion terms will continue to apply.
  17. If there is a discrepancy between these promotion terms and those in any promotional material, these promotion terms will prevail.
  18. By participating in this Promotion, entrants agree to comply with the Platform’s terms of use from time to time. To the extent there is any inconsistency between these terms and conditions and the Platform’s terms and conditions, these terms and conditions shall prevail.
