Virgin Limited Edition is pleased to announce that it is going to run its 'Best Dressed' competition again this year, offering all UK Retail Travel Agents the opportunity to win a luxury three night stay at its tented safari camp Mahali Mzuri in Kenya.

All agents have to do is dress up their shop front window 'Virgin Limited Edition' style and send through a picture displaying their creative flare.

Aimed at retail agencies located in and around the UK where up to 50 in total can apply; contenders can choose any or all of the properties within the portfolio to promote and the more creative they are the better! 

The winning entry of the best shop window display will be announced the week commencing 26th October 2015 and will receive the following prize, a 3 night stay at Mahali Mzuri for two people including all meals and drinks, twice daily game drives, transfers to & from the nearest airstrip and all taxes and local levies.

* Please note flights are not included in this prize.

Judging the winner this year will be Alexander Wells-Greco, Head of Visual Merchandising at Harrods, who commented: “I'm very excited to be judging the competition this year and think it's a fantastic way for the travel trade to unleash their creative sides. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have a challenge on my hands when deciding the winner!”

In order to enter the competition, agents simply need to contact katherine.beach@virginlimitededition.com who will then send out a Window Dressing pack, which will include Virgin Limited Edition posters as well as the famous property ducks, printed fabrics, aprons & recipe cards to help them on their way. All entries must send photographic evidence of their window display to the email address above no later than Monday 5th October 2015.
