The Daily Online Giveaways Continue As Seoul’s Top Attractions Are Promoted to International Visitors
Seoul’s top attractions are currently in the spotlight during this month’s Seoul Sizzling Sweepstakes, organized by the Seoul Tourism Organization (STO) to give international visitors a taste of what makes the Korean capital a great city for both business and fun. Throughout August, the STO is displaying a special feature on a different tourist attraction each day on its convention bureau website (www.miceseoul.com), and is running special giveaways relating to that attraction in order to increase awareness and interest.Each week of August, a new themed week of prizes is unveiled to event participants. Last week’s Dramatic Seoul section saw participants win vouchers, discounts and tickets to Seoul’s top theatrical performances. Shows included popular favorites Nanta, Bibap, JUMP, and Ballerina Who Loves B-boy. This week’s MICE Seoul offers the chance to win vouchers, discounts and tickets to top attractions at meeting venues throughout the city, including Coex and Seoul Marina Club & Yacht.
Week 3 of the Seoul Sizzling Sweepstakes will focus on Exciting Seoul, offering free admission to amusement parks, kimchi-making classes, water parks, and more, while Week 4’s Delicious Seoul prizes will be vouchers and gift certificates for a variety of restaurants and bars.
As the event continues throughout August, the STO looks forward to more participation, as it hopes to introduce more visitors to Seoul’s exciting and varied attractions.
