Promotion Overview and Schedule

The Alex Warren Winning Weekend will unfold across Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th February 2026 exclusively on Capital Network. The promotion features five distinct competition rounds with varying geographical availability across the network's broadcast regions.

Competition Round Details

The carefully structured competition schedule ensures multiple entry opportunities throughout the weekend:

  • Sunday Afternoon (12:00-16:00): Capital Network excluding Scotland

Entry Procedure and Requirements

To participate, listeners must tune into Capital Network during the specified time slots. Presenters will announce a particular Alex Warren track during each competition round. When listeners hear the designated song played in full, they must immediately send a text message containing the keyword "ALEX" to shortcode 83958.

Important entry guidelines include:

  • Entries must be submitted within the duration of the announced track
  • Only one entry per person per competition round is permitted
  • Participants must use the same phone number throughout the entire promotion
  • Standard network charges apply for text messages

Selection Process and Winner Verification

Within thirty minutes of each competition round closing, all eligible entries will enter a random draw. One winner will be selected per round. Successful entrants will receive a telephone call on the number used for entry, which may be recorded for broadcast purposes.

Winners must answer the call personally and may need to answer additional questions or complete tasks for broadcast. Failure to comply with verification procedures may result in disqualification and selection of alternative winners.

Eligibility Criteria

The promotion is exclusively available to UK residents aged 18 or over who are physically present in the UK at the time of entry. Strict limitations apply to prevent multiple entries, with disqualification for those attempting to use multiple phone numbers, names, or automated entry methods.

Winners may be required to provide photographic identification and proof of address before receiving their prizes. The promoter reserves the right to disqualify any entries suspected of breaching these terms.
