The Sweepstakes begins at 12:01 AM Central Time (CT) on Thursday, October 29 and ends at 11:59 PM CT on Tuesday, December 1 (the “Sweepstakes Period”). Sponsor's computer network serves as the official timekeeping device.

5. How to Enter. No purchase is necessary to enter or win. During the Sweepstakes Period, each participant shall receive one entry as follows:

• Automatic Entry After Three Visits: Metropolis Members will receive an automatic entry beginning with the member’s third (3rd) valid completed parking session during the Sweepstakes Period at a Participating Location. Each subsequent parking session completed during the Sweepstakes Period will result in an additional automatic entry to the Sweepstakes. A valid parking session requires a continuous parking duration of at least 30 minutes at a Participating Location. Participating Locations are defined as Metropolis-operated facilities within Travis County, Texas displaying active promotional enrollment. Certain Metropolis locations, including but not limited to those at airports and hospitals, are non-participating locations.  A list of Participating Locations can be found here: metropolis.io/enter-to-win-austin#locations.  For illustration, a Metropolis member who completes five (5) valid parking sessions at Participating Locations during the Sweepstakes Period would receive three (3) automatic entries to the Sweepstakes. Entries are limited to one (1) per calendar day beginning with the member’s third (3rd) valid parking session during the Sweepstakes Period.

Any entry pursuant to this method requires a membership with Metropolis, including signing up for an account with Metropolis. Information regarding account sign-up and the terms of Metropolis membership are found here: https://www.metropolis.io/membership. 

• Alternate Method of Entry (AMOE): Complete the above official online entry form during the Sweepstakes Period at https://www.metropolis.io/enter-to-win-austin. Limit one AMOE entry per person per calendar day during the Sweepstakes Period.
