  • The Organiser is not responsible for lost, incomplete or unviewable entries (e.g., private accounts, Story errors, or failure to tag).

  • Participation in the retreat is primarily observational and educational, providing valuable insights and experiences. It does not create any professional or contractual relationship between the winner and any Song Summit participants.

  • This competition is in no way sponsored, endorsed, administered by or associated with Instagram.

By entering, entrants confirm that they have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions.
