OSRAM SYLVANIA Launches "LIGHTIFY Your Mood" Contest For VIP Experience At NASCAR Race

DANVERS, Mass., Sept. 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- North American lighting leader OSRAM SYLVANIA is launching the "LIGHTIFY^® Your Mood" contest, where the winner will receive a trip for two to the Bank of America 500, one of the races in the Chase for the NASCAR^® Sprint^® Cup taking place at Charlotte Motor Speedway on October 10, 2015. Each day, light is continuously being used to enhance the environment around us. OSRAM LIGHTIFY provides cost-effective indoor and outdoor lighting products that can be controlled and automated via an app on your mobile device to help you save energy, enhance comfort, personalize your surroundings, and experience joy and fun.

"With OSRAM LIGHTIFY, consumers can complement their home decor and outdoor space, as well as dynamically change the atmosphere to suit a particular mood," said Aaron Ganick, head of LIGHTIFY, OSRAM SYLVANIA.  "Now, anyone can enjoy smart connected lighting that adapts to their desires and lifestyle at any time from any place with WiFi via their mobile device.  What is LIGHT to you?  Relaxing?  Inspiring?  Magical?  LIGHTIFY can help you experience your answer." 

OSRAM SYLVANIA wants to know, how do you use light to set the mood?  Up until September 7, 2015, go to www.facebook.com/sylvania and click on the "LIGHTIFY Your Mood" contest tab.  There, entrants can share in 250 words or less how they use light in general to help create the right mood, and obtain complete rules and regulations.  Setting the mood with light could be anything from adding ambiance to cheer on your favorite racing driver by painting your walls with light that matches their team colors, to dimming lights when getting cozy to read a bedtime story to your children, to changing the lights to a warm glow when having a romantic dinner at home.  

From the entries, four finalists will be randomly selected to receive LIGHTIFY products to use in their homes and submit a photo illustrating how they "LIGHTIFYed" their mood.  The photos will be posted on Facebook for the public to vote on their favorite. The finalist with the highest number of votes for their photo will receive the grand prize, a trip for two to the Bank of America 500 in Concord, NC.  The prize, provided by New Hampshire Motor Speedway, includes:

• Round trip airfare for two from anywhere in the continental United States to the local airport
