Every week the community on Lovin Dublin share incredible photos on Instagram via the hashtag #lovindublin. There are a remarkable 7000 photos there and it is a wonderful place to find great places to eat, restaurant reviews and new stuff happening in the city. It shows Dublin off in the best possible way.
Last week we introduced a competition to reward the photographer with the best picture and give them a prize that money just can't buy... A Lovin Dublin hoodie. Now because there are only 6 in existence (for all our staff) the act that you will be wearing one of these shows that you won the photography competition one week. It also means that when you walk into a restaurant, bar or cafe in Dublin you'll be treated like royalty!! Here are the results from week 2...
All you have to do to win this week is tag a photo on Instagram with #lovindublin. Best one wins, simple as that. You'll be sent a hoodie and we'll share your photo to over 70,000 people via our social accounts to get you more followers which is the very least you deserve for topping the pile!
