TERMS AND CONDITIONS for “Magic Radio / Costa / ON AIR COMP” (the “Competition”).
These terms and conditions (the “Specific Terms”) for the Competition should be read alongside our general competition terms and conditions at: http://www.bauerlegal.co.uk/radio-competition-terms.html (the “General Terms”) which will also apply to this Competition. Where there is any conflict between these Specific Terms and the General Terms, the Specific Terms shall prevail.

2.COMPETITION MECHANIC AND HOW TO WIN

There will be 5 x (“winners”) of the on-air competition in total.
1 x winner will be revealed on-air, every Thursday in the Breakfast Show on Magic Radio between 6 am and 10 am on the following Thursdays: Thursday 23rd November, Thursday 30th November, Thursday 7th December, Thursday 14th December and Thursday 21st December.

2) Write a paragraph, explaining who deserves to have their Christmas made a little better and why

4) Agree to make their nominee available to also come on air to speak with Ronan and Harriet and receive their prize
Contestants will need to pre-register with their story between 17th November 2023 and 20th December 2023.
Entries will be judged by the most thoughtful and entertaining story. All valid entries will be pooled together, then judged by the Magic Radio production team, the production manager and an independent judge.
We will be shortlisting entries during the competition period from the open of the competition on the 17/11/2023 at 00.01 until the close of the competition online entry period on 20/11/2023 at 09:30 am.
A short list of 4 x stories a day will be given to a member of the Magic Radio production team who will attempt to make contact via telephone. If however, the person being called does not answer on first attempt, they will move down the list and contact another person.
When contact is made, we will require the entrant to coherently explain their entry. The entry must match the entry that was entered online.
Being shortlisted and contacted does not mean the shortlisted entrant is a winner, they will only be deemed a winner by the Magic Radio production team during the on-air competition round.
Magic Radio has the right to pre-record any competition rounds and play them ‘as live’ during the Magic Radio show.
- The competition will air during the Magic Radio breakfast show each Thursday between 23rd November and 22nd December which takes place between 6am and 10am. Exact timings of the competition within this broader timeframe will be given on air by the presenter.
- By pre-registering for the on-air competition, you agree that your story and nomination can be read out on air. If your story is read out on air it does not mean that you are a winner.
- Only upon being on air and being told that they are the winner or winning name announced by the presenter, will an entrant become a winner.
- All final decisions will rest with the Magic Radio Production team.
If the contestant wins a prize and it is subsequently discovered that they do not fulfil these specific terms and conditions, nor the general competitions terms and condition, they will be disqualified.
