Heart Radio Announces Harry Styles Ticket Competition for 2026
Global, the media company behind Heart Radio, has unveiled detailed terms for an exciting promotion offering fans the chance to win tickets to see Harry Styles live at Wembley Stadium. The competition will take place exclusively on the Heart Network across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, excluding Scotland, on Friday 30th January 2026.
How to Enter the Harry Styles Promotion
Listeners must tune into the Heart Breakfast Show between 06:30 and 10:00 on the specified date. When prompted by the presenters, participants should send a text message containing the keyword HARRY along with their name to the dedicated number 82122. It is crucial to note that entries will only be accepted during the announced on-air window; messages received outside this period will not qualify but may still incur standard network charges.
Standard text message rates apply, and these costs are typically not covered by inclusive mobile packages. Participants are advised to verify charges with their service provider and must obtain permission from the bill payer if they are not the account holder. The organisers emphasise that they cannot be held responsible for network delays affecting message delivery.
Entry Restrictions and Fair Play
To maintain fairness, the promotion strictly prohibits bulk, automated, or third-party entries. Global reserves the right to disqualify any submissions that appear suspicious, including those from duplicate IP addresses, phone numbers, or email accounts. Each entrant must use a single phone number throughout the competition; employing multiple names or contact details constitutes a breach of terms and may result in disqualification and prize forfeiture.
Shortly after the entry window closes, all eligible submissions will be entered into a random draw. Two entrants will be selected and contacted via the telephone number provided. If a winner cannot be reached, fails to confirm their details, or is found ineligible, Global may select an alternative participant.
On-Air Challenge and Winner Selection
The two selected entrants will be brought live on air. The first contestant will hear three short clips from different Harry Styles songs and must provide the next lyric for each. The producer's decision on correctness is final. If the entrant correctly identifies two or three lyrics, they win the prize. Should they manage only one or none, the second entrant automatically becomes the winner without needing to complete any challenge.
Calls will be recorded for broadcast, and participants must answer personally; voicemail, disconnections, or background noise may lead to disqualification. Prior to going on air, entrants may be asked eligibility questions, with recordings retained for monitoring and evidence purposes.
Eligibility Criteria for Participants
The promotion is open to UK residents aged 18 and over who are physically in the country at the time of entry. Only one entry per person is permitted, and using multiple names, phone numbers, or devices is strictly forbidden. Even household members or friends cannot share a phone number for entry purposes.
Winners may be required to provide photo ID and proof of address to verify eligibility before receiving their prize. Failure to supply requested documentation could result in the prize being withheld.
Prize Details and Conditions
The lucky winner will receive a pair of e-tickets to see Harry Styles at Wembley Stadium on 12th June 2026. Tickets will be delivered via the Ticketmaster app at least 48 hours before the event, and attendees must adhere to venue age restrictions: no under-5s, no under-14s on the pitch, and under-14s must be accompanied by an adult over 18.
The prize is non-transferable with no cash alternative, though Global reserves the right to substitute it with one of equal or greater value. Importantly, the promotion does not cover travel, accommodation, or other expenses; these remain the winner's responsibility. If the event is cancelled or rescheduled, Global will either provide tickets for the new date or offer an alternative prize at their discretion.
Publicity and Data Protection
By entering, participants agree that Global and promotion partner Live Nation may use their name, image, location, and entry for publicity purposes across all media worldwide. Winners and their guests may also be interviewed or photographed for PR activities.
Personal data provided will be processed by Global, Live Nation, and prize providers to administer the promotion, with possible disclosure to regulators like Ofcom. Data may be transferred outside the UK/EEA with appropriate safeguards and retained for up to three years. Entrants can request erasure by emailing privacy@global.com, though doing so before the promotion concludes forfeits their entry and prize eligibility.
Participants may opt into marketing communications, with the ability to unsubscribe at any time. For further enquiries, Global's customer support team can be contacted via their official website.
