You say ‘Aperitivo’, we say ‘Milan’!

If the 72 hrs True Italian Festival was a city, it would be Milan: lively, creative, fashionable, and never taken for granted. Besides being the epicenter of Italian fashion, the Lombard capital boasts a vast, stimulating, and constantly updated cultural offer. Getting bored in Milan is almost impossible, but if it happens, just eat! In Milan, every corner is a gastronomical paradise: from the best-starred chefs to authentic Italian street food, from the typical Milanese cutlet to the most sought-after ethnic cuisine, there’s a treat for everyone.

It goes without saying: we only have one Milan. Do not miss the opportunity to visit this breathtaking city and win a stay in one of the two hotels selected for the occasion: The Hub Hotel and Hotel Mentana.

The Instagram contest: how to participate

Participating in the contest will be as easy as drinking an Aperol Spritz! From April 6th until April 9th, just go to one of the participating restaurants in Berlin (here is the full list) and order the event specialties. It will be hard not to give in to temptation, but before you bite, take a picture of the dish, of someone eating, or of the particular location and post it on your Instagram feed by 11 PM, Saturday, April 9th (only posts, Instagram stories will not be considered!).

HOW IT WORKS:

  • tag the profile @trueitalianfood in the post;
  • use the hashtag #72hrstrueitalian in the description of the post;
  • Geo-tag the post at the restaurant you took the picture in (it must be one of those participating in the event).

How to win the contest

The True Italian Team will select the 10 most original photos and reward the creativity of amateur photographers who decided to participate in the contest. On Monday, April 11th at 12 pm the selected shots will be published on @trueitalianfood Instagram stories, where the audience will be able to vote for the 2 photos that most deserve to win, by tapping on ? – if liked – or ? – for dislike.
