GIG-IT, a new social game coming to Facebook in July that lets players create 3D concerts featuring virtual versions of famous musicians, is getting in the Social Media Day spirit.
GIG-IT is throwing a contest, and one winner will receive two VIP tickets to the big Social Media Day party at New York City's Milk Studios on June 29. To be eligible, you must create and share a virtual concert using GIG-IT (see how to enter the contest and gain advanced access to the game below). The winning submission also will be displayed at the NYC party.
Participants will be able to customize every aspect of their concert such as the main performer, music, backup dancers, speakers, opening act, headline performers, wardrobes and venue. Players will be able to choose virtual likenesses of Lil Wayne, Kendrick Lamar, Marsha Ambrosius, 2 Chainz, Machine Gun Kelly, Nas and other artists.
Mashable launched Social Media Day in 2010 to celebrate the worldwide digital revolution.
How to Enter:
Request to join the "GIG-IT Exclusive Invite" Facebook group (only the first 200 people to request an invite for the group will be granted access to the game and be eligible).
Once you have access to the game, create your ultimate concert and post it on your Facebook Timeline by Friday, June 28, at 2 p.m. ET to enter the contest.
One winner will earn two VIP tickets to the NYC Social Media Day party, as well as have their virtual concert played at the event.
