The awarding of Prizes (as defined in Rule 9 below) is subject to the eligibility and forfeiture provisions set forth herein.
5. CONTEST ENTRY: If eligible, you may enter this Contest during the Contest Period by posting a video (“Video”) that shows you dressed as your favorite Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, or Marvel character while performing (performance can include but is not limited to dancing, singing, lip-syncing, or acting) to DisneyStore.com’s “Halloween Dance Party” song (“Song”). For character inspiration, visit www.disneystore.com/characters. Use of Disney store or DisneyStore.com merchandise or costumes, or any officially licensed Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, or Marvel merchandise or costumes, is entirely optional. Any such use or purchase will not affect the judging of your Entry, which will be evaluated solely in accordance with the Judging Criteria set forth in Section 7 below. Post the Video to Instagram with the hashtag #DisneyStoreContest (collectively, a “Post”). The hashtag is not case-sensitive but it must be included as part of your Post in order to be eligible. The Post must be made to your Instagram feed, and not an Instagram Story. To enter, you must also follow Disney Store (@shopDisney) on Instagram, if you do not do so already.
Each eligible entry submitted during the Contest Period shall be referred to collectively as the “Entries” and individually as an “Entry.”
Videos must be between thirty (30) seconds and the duration of the Song (approximately one [1] minute and forty-eight [48] seconds). Videos that are less than thirty (30) seconds will be disqualified. If a Video exceeds the Song’s duration, only the first minute and forty-eight (48) seconds will be judged.
If any anyone other than you appears in the Post, you must obtain their prior consent regardless of whether they appear in costume. In particular, you must make them aware that they will be included in the Video with the understanding that you will submit the Video as a Contest Entry. If they are minors in their jurisdiction of residence, the consent must be provided by their parent/legal guardian.
If others appearing in your Post elect to enter the Contest themselves (assuming that they are in costume as Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, or Marvel characters and performing/dancing to the Song), they must fully comply with these Official Rules, including the eligibility criteria set forth in Rule 3 above. If a Video features more than one eligible person, each may enter that the same Video if they are all in costume as a Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, or Marvel character and dancing to the Song. Please note in the comment which character the entrant is dressed as.
You may include a comment as part of your Post, such as identifying your Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, or Marvel character, but this is not required (except for multiple entrants entering the same Video, who should identify their specific character in the comments) nor will the inclusion of a comment in any way enhance your odds of winning. If you do add a comment, all uses of the term “Post” in these Official Rules (as used in conjunction with Entries) includes the accompanying comment as well. Any Post that violates the Content Guidelines (as outlined in Rule 6 below), including but not limited to the inclusion of inappropriate content, will result in the disqualification of that Entry.
If you do not have an Instagram account, you can visit www.Instagram.com or download the Instagram app from the iTunes App Store or Google Play and create an Instagram account according to the instructions on the website. Creating an Instagram account is free. Please note that you must agree to comply with the Instagram Terms of Service in order to create an Instagram account.
You may only use one (1) Instagram account to participate in the Contest.
All Posts on Instagram must comply with the Instagram Terms of Service and Instagram Rules available at www.Instagram.com. Important note: If your Instagram account is set to “private” or “protected mode,” your Post may not be visible to Sponsor and/or Administrator and therefore may not be counted as an Entry in the Contest.
To download and/or access Instagram via your wireless mobile device, data rates may apply for each message sent or received from your handset according to the terms and conditions of your service agreement with your wireless carrier. Other charges may apply (such as normal airtime and carrier charges as well as charges for wireless Internet access) and may appear on your mobile phone bill or be deducted from your prepaid account balance. Wireless carriers’ rate plans may vary, and you should contact your wireless carrier for more information on messaging rate plans and charges relating to your

It is recommended that you confirm your Instagram notification settings are turned on. Entrants are encouraged to regularly check their direct messages following the conclusion of the Contest Period. Sponsor and Administrator disclaim any liability due to direct message not being timely received (or received at all) by potential winner regardless of cause. The notification message will request that the potential Finalist email the Administrator at the specified email address with specific personal information (e.g., full name, phone number, state/province, email address and Instagram username). Failure to respond to the initial verification notice within twenty-four (24) hours after notification or return of direct message as undeliverable after two (2) attempts will result in disqualification.
The potential Finalists will be required to complete, sign and return within three (3) calendar days of date of transmission, an Affidavit of Eligibility, a Liability Release and Indemnification and Publicity Release (“Affidavit”). Any individuals other than entrant appearing in Video must also complete a Liability Release and Publicity Release (“Participant Release”) within the same timeframe.
At the sole discretion of the Sponsor, disqualification and the selection of an alternate Finalist may result from any of the following, without limitation: [a] potential Finalist’s failure
to respond to Notification within twenty-four (24) hours after its transmission; [b] the return of a Notification as undeliverable after two (2) attempts; [c] potential Finalist’s failure to execute and return the Affidavit and Participant Release(s) (as applicable) within three (3) calendar days of date of transmission; [d] potential Finalist’s failure to provide Sponsor with satisfactory proof of eligibility; and [e] any other non-compliance with these Rules.

The Judging Panel will then determine the top four (4) Entries from among the Finalists based on the same judging criteria identified in Rule 8 above. For the avoidance of doubt, the ranking of the Finalists by Administrator will not be taken into account in the Judging Panel’s evaluation of the Finalists. The four (4) Entrants with the highest final point scores from the Judging Panel will be deemed potential Winners. In the event a tie remains, an additional judge of the Sponsor’s choosing will be brought in to reevaluate the tied Finalists.
On or about October 28, 2020, potential winners will be notified by e-mail. Potential winners must complete any applicable tax form(s) upon Sponsor’s or Administrator’s request. In the event of a disqualification or Prize (as defined below) forfeiture, an alternate Winner may be chosen as per above, in Sponsor’s sole discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, if an Entry is selected as a Finalist but NOT as a Winner, the Finalist will NOT receive any prize.
At the sole discretion of the Sponsor, disqualification and the selection of an alternate Winner may result from any of the following, without limitation: [a] potential Winner’s failure to respond to Notification within twenty-four (24) hours after its transmission; [b] the return of a Notification as undeliverable after two (2) attempts; [c] potential Finalist’s failure to execute and return applicable tax form(s) within three (3) calendar days of date of transmission; [d] potential Finalist’s failure to provide Sponsor with satisfactory proof of eligibility; and [e] any other non-compliance with these Rules.
