Online Poker And Music Combine
PKR.com bands together with T in the Park
Scotland’s "T in the Park Festival" features some
of the hottest acts in UK music at one of the biggest annual outdoor
festivals in Europe. This year the PKR.com online poker company
will be introducing the audience to something a little different
by showcasing online play on casino games and poker for the first
time at a music festival.
“Poker is the new rock and roll. So this is perfect for our
user base – young and active people who love to have a great
time and be social,” says Simon Prodger, marketing director
of PKR.com.
As part of the deal, PKR.com will bring a little Las Vegas glitz
to the event with the world’s first ever play or fun money
casino at a festival. Located next to the Futures Stage, the PKR
Fun Casino will give festival goers the chance to try their hand
at games such as roulette, blackjack and Texas Hold’em poker.
The first 5 000 visitors will receive a goodie bag with gifts worth
over GBP15 and 500 lucky players will also receive cool spot prizes.
PKR promotional girls will be on hand throughout the event to help
players to sign up and avoid the queues and take photos that will
be posted on the PKR website after the event.
Last year T in the Park earned the ‘Best Major Festival’
title at the UK Festival Awards. This year Kinross will be welcoming
an impressive range of performers including The Arctic Monkeys,
Razorlight, Snow Patrol, Kings of Leon, Avril Lavigne and many more.
Tickets to this year’s event, running 6th-8th July, sold out
in just 40 minutes but PKR.com will be giving away a total of 30
tickets through special poker tournaments and giveaways.
