SAN JUAN — Discover Puerto Rico, the Island’s non-profit Destination Marketing Organization (DMO), is rolling out the red carpet for travelers to start 2022 in Puerto Rico. In partnership with the Sheraton Puerto Rico Hotel & Casino and JetBlue, the DMO will grant one person and a guest a once-in-a-lifetime trip to ring in the New Year, Puerto Rican style.
Starting Wednesday, contenders could enter the “2022 Starts in Puerto Rico” sweepstakes via this landing page until Sunday, December 12 for a chance to win two roundtrip flights to the Island and a 3-night stay at Sheraton Puerto Rico Hotel & Casino hotel, offering an urban resort-style retreat just five minutes from historic Old San Juan
The winner will receive a VIP experience at Puerto Rico’s inaugural New Year’s Eve celebration taking place on the grounds of the Puerto Rico Convention Center, the largest and most technologically advanced in the Caribbean, and DISTRITO T-Mobile, Puerto Rico’s newest state-of-the-art five-acre entertainment and nightlife complex. The historic New Year’s Eve event will take place in conjunction with the 500th anniversary of San Juan, as the capital city celebrates a special year. This also complements the Island’s world-renowned existing holiday season festivities; a time of year that vividly reflects the Island’s vibrant culture, food, dance, and music that shine through local festivals and celebrations.
Making the celebration truly special is that “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2022” is celebrating its 50th year and will feature the show’s first-ever Spanish language countdown live from Puerto Rico’s inaugural celebration. The most-watched annual celebration, “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest,” will air FRIDAY, DECEMBER. 31, live on ABC at 8:00 p.m. EST.
