1D Theme Park

What is the 1D Theme Park?
The One Direction boys are taking over the theme parks Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure on November 17th (Monday) and 18th (Tuesday). These theme parks are located in Orlando, Florida (yes, USA).

What will happen?
The boys will do 2 exclusive concerts, you'll have the chance to meet the boys and there'll be side animation throughout the parks, such as a 1D Photo Booth, 1D karaoke bar and a Superstar Parade (whatever that may be).

How can I get there?
Each country gets to send a couple of fans. For Belgium, one lucky winner is allowed to go and take one friend and one adult (like a parent). If you're an adult yourself, I believe you can just take 2 friends.
MNM (Flemish radio station) will be giving away the ticket this weekend.

What's happening on MNM?
Starting this Friday (October 3rd) from 13:00 and continuing the entire weekend, you'll be able to win tickets for an exclusive VIP screening of the Where We Are movie in Utopolis Mechelen.
If you win tickets for that event and go to the screening, you'll be able to win the tickets to go to the theme park. What you'll have to do at the cinema has not been announced; it might be a quiz, several little games, ... Wait and see.
Attention! Just because you win tickets for the VIP screening does NOT automatically mean you are going to the US! You have to win a SECOND competition.

I'm from Wallonia, what do I do?
First of all, you can listen to MNM here.
Second, I will try and help you by tweeting what you have to do to win the tickets for the VIP screening.
Please be warned the chances of you winning if you don't speak Dutch are low. I hate to say it, but Flemish fans have a much, MUCH bigger chance. I'm really sorry for that :(

Please note
You will miss school if you win. Definitely Monday and Tuesday, but probably also Wednesday due to flight times.
The VIP hall in Mechelen has 50 seats, so I think (but I'm not sure) there will be 50 winners for the movie tickets.

Massive meet-up

A few days ago, someone tweeted me about a project 2 Belgian Directioners were setting up. At first I was a bit hesitant; there are so many people that try to organise things, and more than half of the time these plans get cancelled. However, as I read the entire Facebook post, I realised that these girls are very determined to make their plan work.

The plan: filming videos for 20 (twenty!) of the boys' songs (all of their singles and a few extra's). For some of the songs, there is an official video, which will be copied as much as possible. For the other songs, brand new videos will be filmed. All 20 songs will be put on a DVD, which will, one way or another, find its way to the boys.

Filming for these videos will happen at no less than 8 locations. Oostende, Brugge, Gent, Aalst, Brussels, Antwerp. For Limburg and Wallonia, exact locations will be announced later.
Each person can go to maximum 2 meet-ups.

Normally, the meet-ups start at 14:00 and end around 18:00.
September 7th: Oostende
September 14: Gent
October 5th: Antwerp
October 12th: Brussels
October 19th: Limburg and Wallonia (exact locations to follow)
October 26th: Brugge
November 16th: Aalst

If you want to participate, send a mail to belgiandirectionersmeetup@outlook.com with the following information: name, address, phone number, your length, which meet-up you want to attent (max. 2), whether you dare to sing alone or not and what kind of voice you have (can you hit high notes or do you have a low voice or?).

For more information, read this Facebook post or join the Facebook group.

Disclaimer: I am not involved in this project at all, I am just spreading the word about it. I will probably (unfortunately) not attend any of the meet-ups.
