HOOK A DUCK HUNT - ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

• The IRN-BRU Carnival Hook a Duck Hunt takes place on Saturday 14th December.
• There are 5 x prizes of 1 x Phenomenal Ticket which will be won by those who find a golden duck, the remaining prizes are all of 2 x general admission tickets which will be won by those who find a blue duck.
• Participants can win by finding the Carnival ducks which will be hidden around Glasgow in both businesses and open spaces. No purchase necessary.
• If you spot a duck in a business, simply take it if it accessible, or ask for it if it is behind a counter. All ducks will be in a part of the business which is visible to the public.
• Ducks found in open spaces can simply be taken.
• Winning ducks will have a tag around their necks which detail how to claim the tickets. The pairs of tickets can be claimed by scanning the QR code or following the instructions on the tag - the duck and the tag themselves are not tickets. QR codes on winning ducks can only be used once - if the code has already been used, the duck is no longer a winning duck. Tickets must be redeemed in this way in advance of your visit - you can redeem it at any time but all tickets are subject to capacity, so we recommend doing so as soon as possible to secure your tickets for your preferred date. 
• The Phenomenal tickets can be claimed by taking a photograph of the golden duck and sending it, along with the location where it was found, to [email protected]. We will get back to you with details on using your prize.
• Any ducks which do not have tags attached are not winning ducks.
• If you have any questions please contact [email protected].
• The judge's decision is final and no further correspondence will be entered into.

WARNING

Exhibitors are being targeted by companies claiming to be, or work with, event organisers. They use existing event branding and may appear genuine.  In the past this has included directories and hotel bookings, but companies are now also claiming they can sell visitor data from events. This is not the case. 

Exhibitors need to be vigilant, read the small print, inform their exhibition, marketing and finance teams about the risk of scams and check with their organiser if they receive anything they are not expecting or are unsure of.

Organisations such as Event Fair, FairGuide.com/Construct Data Verlag, Expo Guide (Mexico) and International Fairs Directory (Portugal) are targeting exhibitors with their misleading directory services. Unsuspecting exhibitors who sign and return the form are then contracted into a three-year, non-retractable agreement, which could cost the exhibitor a significant amount of money.
