We know travel is better when shared. Which is why we are looking for people to share their epic travel moments experienced with their besties in bid to become Contiki's OFFICIAL Tik Tok creator #ContikiFindYourPeople
Combining the hottest social network to burst onto the global stage, and a drive to further connect the emotion of music and travel, Contiki launches a worldwide competition to find their 2020 TikTok creator through the power of 'friendship'.
The launch of Contiki's TikTok channel @ContikiTravel is being celebrated with the ultimate competition for young fans of the platform with a passion for travel.
The competition asks entrants to create and share videos that encapsulate their friendships whilst travelling utilising the native features of the TikTok platform including stickers, filters, background music and augmented reality.
Contiki will be launching the comp and channel using some of the epic moments captured during their recent Find Your People influencer campaign, which saw 9 strangers, including Amelyn Beverley @amebeverly from Singapore come together to road test Contiki's new Rome to Barcelona by train trip.
Contiki has been uniting people from all four corners of the globe for decades through travel and will be launching this new initiative to meet Gen-Z where they feel most at home.
The prize will be a year-long content creator ambassadorship with Contiki, travelling to some of their most popular destinations to capture content bespoke to Tik Tok that shows the power of shared experiences and travelling with like-minded people.
To take part entrants must share their most creative moments and content on their own Tik Tok channels, making sure to include the hashtags #contikifindyourpeople and #tiktoktravel.
Contiki will then reshare their favourites every fortnight, thus entering them into a Grand Final. The voting will then be put in the hands of Contiki's army of social followers; with the winner being named in January 2020.
