Whataburger Restaurants will celebrate National Burger Month by hosting an Instagram photo contest. Fans will be able to enter to win one of four weekly prizes including Whataburger for a Year – a free Whataburger each week for an entire year.
To be eligible to win, fans must be 13 years or older and upload photos via Instagram featuring a designated theme, including the hashtag #Whatagram and also tagging @Whataburger. There will be a different photo theme each week during the month of May, and a winning photo will be selected for each theme for a total of four winners. Criteria will be based on creativity and originality, quality of the photo, and relevance to the contest theme.
“Whataburger is celebrating National Hamburger Month by turning the spotlight on our amazing fans with this new Instagram contest,” says Pam Cox, Whataburger Group Director of Corporate Communications. “They’ve shared so many great photos with us through social media, especially through Instagram, that we wanted to highlight their creativity and reward the best with their favorite burger for an entire year.”
