2. Theater pit stop
Refuel with 10-minute sessions featuring topics like cloud security, data center transformation, agile development, disaster recovery, and data storage infrastructure. With 40+ presentations delivered over four days, there is servicing for everyone! The sessions will lap every 30-minutes, so get some popcorn at the in-booth information counter and grab a seat in the theater.
But why stop there?
Attend a theater session and enter a raffle to win one of 40+ action-packed prizes. A winner will be randomly selected during or immediately following the session. Every session you attend is an opportunity to walk away as a winner. (In our eyes you are all winners already.)
3. The winner’s circle
If becoming a race car driving champion feels like a long-lost dream, we have a solution! Come by the booth for your chance to be part of the winner’s circle—you may even win the grand prize.
To get entered into the winner’s circle, fill out a raffle ticket and/or attend a theater session. You will get one ticket for every theater session you attend. Meaning, if you attend five sessions, you get five chances to win big. We’ll take those odds!
The prizes
- Grand prize, first place: A five-day, four-night trip for two (2) to Red Bull Racing Paddock Club 2019 event—Formula 1, in Austin, Texas.
- Second place: A three-day, two-night trip for two (2) to Red Bull Racing Grandstand 2019 event—Formula 1, in Austin, Texas.
