Digicel Dominica proudly announced its sponsorship of the World Creole Music Festival for a seventh consecutive year which takes place from Friday October 28th to Sunday October 30th 2011 and will see Caribbean and International stars such as Carimi, Gyptian and Ali Campbell take to the stage.

The World Creole Music Festival is one of the region’s most famous festivals with three nights of pulsating music and this year is expected to even bigger and better as Digicel is giving away scores of free tickets to the event through its “Text to Win” competitions.

Last month’s competition resulted in eight lucky customers walking away with prizes including tickets to the festival and spending money. To qualify, customers simply had to text “WCMF” to 7171 to unscramble the Digicel word game. September’s lucky ‘Text to Win’ competition winners are Nashia Mc Intyre of Goodwill, Narissa Attidore of Canefield, Jasmine Diolen of Roseau, Natress Durand of Roseau, Maxim Abraham of Grandbay, Riah Brumant of Bath Estate, Lennon Honore of Portsmouth and Bibiana Darroux of Roseau.

Moving on to this month’s competition, Digicel customers can participate by texting ‘Festival’ and be in with a chance to win weekly prizes of $1000 cash, tickets to the WCMF, plus an excursion for four to the Arial Tram.
In addition, Digicel is hosting a number of activities to promote the festival at its store on Great Marlborough and Great George Street. Last Friday 14th October, the first lucky weekly winner of the October competition was announced as Natalie Attidore of Woodfordhill and there was a special performance from the Pointe Michel Cultural Group and Dominica’s exciting calypsonian, “Mighty Acka”.

Digicel Dominica Sales and Marketing Manager, Nathalie Walsh, said: “We are always looking at new and exciting ways to give back to our customers and with our latest ‘Text to Win’ competitions, we are doing just that. Customers can simply text ‘Festival’ to enter and be in with a chance to win cash and tickets to the World Creole Festival, proudly sponsored by Digicel.”

    :?: Digicel the people of Dominica wants to know, what are the true benefits from your sponsorship? Since you’ve given the WCMF cash upfront, and then your request is free tickets equivalent to your sponsorship? I Don’t know if anyone else have notice, every other person in the park has a Digicel personel tag on their neck. Wondering…
