December 11, 2020 – Have you explored what Split Advent has to offer online?
In 2020, marked by physical distance, it is more important than ever to emphasize the deep connection between people. This is exactly one of the main messages from Split Advent through many activities for all citizens, most of which, this year, are carried out online. By participating in the interactive content of Split Advent under the slogan ‘Love unites us,’ citizens can win numerous awards while also helping social groups in need.
1. Brighten up Christmas for the children from the Maestral home with favorite Advent memories
In the Advent time of giving and love, the people of Split, like all people of goodwill, have the opportunity to help the groups most in need. As part of Split Advent, a charity competition, ‘Embrace the Heart’ was launched. By publishing your favorite Christmas memories in the form of a photo, video, or text, citizens can bring a touch of Christmas magic to those who need it most. The person with the most beautiful announcement will symbolically hand over a donation of HRK 5,000.00, in cooperation with the Split Tourist Board, which provided the funds, to the Maestral Children’s Home.
Citizens can respond to the action until December 23 on the Split Tourist Board’s social networks and show the fundamental values of Christmas because, in moments when we are physically distant, love and care for others are needed more than ever. Christmas memories can be posted in the form of a ‘post’ on their own profiles with the obligatory hashtags #LoveNasSpaja and #ZagrliSrcem. The post must also be set to “public” to be visible. Another way to participate in the humanitarian competition is to post memories in the comments below one of the posts of the competition on the Facebook and Instagram profile of the Split Tourist Board, also with the accompanying hashtags #LjubavNasSpaja and #ZagrliSrcem.
2. Share holiday-themed photos and win the family lunch at Pauza!
Split Advent this year, in cooperation with the local online food ordering service ‘Pauza,’ decided to reward as many as three lucky people with the delivery of an Advent lunch or dinner. Each round of the competition wins a gift voucher worth HRK 250.00 at Pauza, which can provide a meal for the whole family.
This competition invites all interested parties to publish photos with a holiday theme. The most creative ones, according to the jury, will win prizes. The entire competition takes place in three thematic parts, from 7 to 13 December, 14 to 20 December, and 23 to 30 December.
The first part of the competition is already public and highlights favorite Christmas clothes, with preference given to Christmas sweaters. Remembering, writing the hashtag #LjubavNasSpaja is mandatory, and the post must be set to ‘public’ option. Be sure to tag the Split Tourist Board (Visit Split), too!
3. Box of beautiful wishes by Croatian Lottery
Another prize campaign started on December 8, titled ‘Box of beautiful wishes.’ In cooperation with the Croatian Lottery, Split Advent will reward those who write the most beautiful Christmas messages and thus remind themselves and their fellow citizens of the true spirit of the holidays. Boxes of good wishes are located on Gajo Bulat Square near the big Christmas tree and the Riva, opposite the Advent stage. With their messages, all citizens and visitors to Split will prove that love is an emotion that allows us to overcome all challenges placed before us.
By writing sincere Christmas wishes and putting them in mailboxes, participants enter the competition for one of three main prizes – a Samsung Galaxy S10e 128GB dual SIM, a Samsung Galaxy R800 smartwatch, or a Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 T830 64GB tablet, or one of three consolation gifts package. Below the written wish, you must write your name and surname, mobile phone number, and e-mail so that the winners can be contacted. You must be over the age of 18 to participate, and it is possible to participate several times with different wishes.
The winning wishes will be drawn at random on Wednesday, December 30, and published on social networks and the Split Tourist Board website.
4. Virtual ‘Cima ljubavi’ that connects sailors and their loved ones during Advent
In cooperation with the Blue Cage, a Facebook group that brings together many sailors and lovers of the sea and ships, Split Advent organized a virtual action with the symbolic name ‘Cima ljubavi.’ As part of this action, Split sailors are invited to send videos to their hometown with messages of what they would do if they were at home with their families at that time, instead of away.
The action is carried out on the Split Tourist Board’s social networks and the Facebook page Modri kavez. Sailors can send their video materials (lasting 30 seconds to a minute) to e-mail [email protected], and the inboxes of the Facebook pages Modri kavez or Visit Split. The collected video materials of the seafarers will be published on the mentioned Facebook pages every Friday until the beginning of January.
Apart from the numerous open competitions, follow the Facebook and Instagram profiles of Split Advent to get new information about programs, live broadcasts, and new opportunities to win interesting and useful prizes every day.
