Fans will receive 10 entries for every $10 donation, 30 entries for every $25, 75 entries for every $50, 200 entries for every $100 or can donate a custom amount. 50 winners will be randomly selected, and each winner will receive a confirmation email with a unique code to sign up for a meet & greet reservation within the Looped app. Winners will also receive a digital copy of their recorded session with the artists. Sweepstakes entries for each artist will be open weekly, with a different KPentertainment artist featured every Monday through Friday. Participating talent and sweepstakes schedules:
