Where are the Advent Towers?
All the Towers will be located within Leicester City Centre, all within walking distance of each other. Below are just some of the locations:

  • Town Hall Square

  • Clock Tower

  • Gallowtree Gate

  • Orton Square, outside Curve

  • St Martins - The Lanes area

  • Market Square

  • High Street

  • Guildhall Lane

  • Humberstone Gate

  • St. Nicholas Place

 
It’s easy to take part – here’s how:

What do I have to do?
‘Spot 3 to win’; tell us the location of just 3 of the Advent Towers, and let us know what prize is displayed on each of the 3 you find.

 

There’s 3 easy ways to enter:

  • In person: every morning between 10.30am – 12pm, from 1st – 24th December,
    One Leicester Staff and Leicester Sound Thunder Crew will be on Humberstone Gate / near the Clock Tower where you can complete and hand in an entry form.

  • Post: within the One Magical Christmas Events Guide there is an entry form – simply fill this in and post it back to the freepost address shown, or hand your completed form in to the One Leicester Team / Leicester Sound Black Thunder Crew on Humberstone Gate (photocopied entry forms ARE accepted). The events guide is available online or from libraries, sports centres, Leicester Tourist Information Centre (Town Hall Square), museums, Leicester City Council Customer Service Centres & other venues.

 

Do I win the prizes I put on my form?

Not necessarily – to enter, you can put ANY three tower locations and the prizes displayed on them. Your entry then goes into the prize draw. Entries are drawn at random each day throughout the month – if you don’t win one day, your entry stays in the ‘hat’ until the next day and so on. If you are lucky enough to win - you win whatever prize is relevant for  that day, i.e. day 19 on the One Magical Advent Towers is a £100 Dominoes Toys voucher – so the entry drawn, at random that day, will win that prize.

 

How to find out if you’ve won: 
A draw will take place every day from 1st – 24th December, and the winner for that day will be revealed here on the One Leicester website each day - find out who the winners are here, and also on Leicester Sound 105.4FM the following day on the Breakfast Show. We will also contact the winner directly.

 

There will also be some special ‘live prize draws’, with Big prizes to be won,  hosted by the Leicester Sound Breakfast Crew – Dates: 12th, 19th and 24th December.
