Tourism Fiji Launches "Ultimate Fiji Adventurer" Video Contest

National Tourism Board to Send Couple to Fiji as Part of Video Contest

Los Angeles, CA, December 06, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Looking for adventure and escape from another “staycation?” Tourism Fiji’s “Ultimate Fiji Adventurer” video contest, will send one talented pair on the adventure of their lives to the breathtaking South Pacific islands of Fiji.

Now through January 1, thrill-seekers and adrenaline junkies can reveal their daring and creativity by submitting an original video showcasing:
· Why you are the Ultimate Fiji Adventurer, and
· Why Fiji is the ultimate adventure destination

Contestants can discover Fiji’s adventurous side by playing the Thrill Me With Adventure game before submitting a video to www.fijime.tv/videocontest, where the public can vote for their favorite entry. The top ten vote-getting videos will then be reviewed by a panel of travel experts, who will select a winner based on creativity, appeal and ability to express the contest’s theme. See FijiMe.TV/videocontest for submission instructions. For Video Contest Rules and important Do’s and Don’ts go to FijiMe.Tv/videocontestrules.

“We want to see what thrills you, so show us your adventurous side!” advises Ili Matatolu, Tourism Fiji’s Regional Director for The Americas. “And be creative, because you don’t have to go deep-sea diving to make a video that shows your passion for it. Think about what you could do with a swimming pool, disposable underwater camera, and some video clips of Fiji!”

The winning pair will receive round trip (r/t) economy airfare on Air Pacific, Fiji’s International Airline, from Los Angeles, r/t Nadi airport-resort transfers and seven nights deluxe accommodations at Sonaisali Island Resort, plus all meals daily (based on resort meal plan). In addition, FijiEscapesTravel.com, the Prize packager, will also arrange several island adventure and cultural activities.

The Thrill Me with Adventure Interactive Game and the Ultimate Fiji Adventurer Video Contest developed by Tourism Fiji’s advertising agency Marchese Communications are open to anyone 18 years of age at time of entry who is a citizen or legal resident of the US, its territories or Canada. Visit FijiMe.TV to play or find special travel offers, answers to your Fiji travel questions, or links to engage with Tourism Fiji via their Facebook, Twitter and YouTube pages.

Known for having the world’s friendliest people, Fiji is a nation of 333 islands located in the South Pacific, and just a nine hour and 45 minute non-stop flight from Los Angeles. Travelers to Fiji enjoy not just a wide range of options for adventure, romance, relaxation and authentic island culture, but also greater buying power – the value of $1 US is nearly double in Fiji.
