How does the passport work so I can win the prize?
- At your first venue stop you may collect your passport. Look for the ‘Passport office Signage’. Show them your try booking receipt so you can collect.
- If you have not purchased a passport, you can utilize the QR code at one of the venues ‘passport office’ to purchase one.
- Please note when passports are collected and collated Hinterland Tourism will be tallying the passports against the names registered on Try booking. Should your name not be on the list with Try booking your passport will be void and you will not go in the draw to win the prize. Please ensure the name on your Try booking receipt matches your passport name.
- Your passport is the key to the number of entries you have in the draw. Each venue you visit will give you one entry in the draw. The more venues you visit the more chances for you to win.
- Any food outlet on the Hinterland will give you one entry in the draw. Please collect the receipt for your purchase and take the receipt to one of the venues with a ‘passport office’ so they can stamp your passport and the receipt. Should you have a digital receipt the venue will sign and stamp your passport. You will receive one stamp only from that outlet so you cannot split receipts to gain more stamps if from the same outlet! Please note the food outlets will not have stamps for the passport, only the venues on the trail.
- If you stay in the hinterland for the festival weekend it will give you 3 entries in the draw. Please note the accommodation house will not have stamps for the passport, only the venues on the trail.
- If you purchase anything from a retail store on the hinterland that weekend- it will give you one entry in the draw. Only one stamp will apply if multiple receipts from the same outlet. Please note the retail outlets will not have stamps for the passport only the venues on the trail.
- ALL the questions on the information page of your passport must be answered (so we can contact you if you are the winner!). This will give you an extra entry in the draw!
