SXSW 2006 is less than two months away and Metroblogging Austin has scored a free registration for the Interactive portion (SXSWi) of the festival for one lucky Metroblogging reader (a $275 value). The registration gets you admission to the Interactive festival which runs from Friday, March 10th to Tuesday, March 14th, 2006. This registration does not get you admission to the film or music portions of SXSW. If you’re travelling from outside of Austin, you’ll need to have your own way of getting here and a place to stay, something that’s becoming quite scarce.
Here’s how the contest will work. Tomorrow morning at 10am CST, I’ll do a follow-up post with two questions related to SXSWi. The first person to answer the questions correctly in the comments will win the free registration. This contest is open to all Metroblogging readers, not just the ones in Austin, but the assumption is that you’re able to get yourself here for that week and that you’ll actually attend the festival. Metroblogging staff members are not eligible for this giveaway.
And stay tuned for SXSW coverage as the festival draws nearer…
