VIZIO Launches Updated Online Fan Zone Community, Providing Fans With Even More Engaging, Interactive Experiences

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- VIZIO, America's #1 Smart TV Company¹, today announced the launch of new updates to VIZIO Fandemonium, VIZIO's online social community created to provide fans the chance to rally together, share and express their enthusiasm for sports, music, movies, games and more. Originally launched in June 2013, the VIZIO Fandemonium platform allows fans to register, compete, and collect points to redeem for exciting prizes packages from VIZIO and other partners. Whether you are a football or sports fan, TV buff or music lover, VIZIO Fandemonium rewards fans for their devotion to their passion point.

The updated VIZIO Fandemonium – VIZIOFanZone.com – site has been enhanced to provide a more interactive and engaging experience for members. Features include new video content, updated social feeds for fans to interact within the site and with other members, and a revamped college match-up zone allowing football fans to vote and see which team's fans make the most noise online. Fans who interact within the Fandemonium community can earn points, which can then be redeemed for incredible prizes from VIZIO like signed memorabilia from brand ambassadors, subscriptions or credits from partners like Hulu Plus, Netflix, Amazon Instant Video, and more. VIZIO Fandemonium members also have the opportunity to enter to win exclusive fan experiences throughout the year.

"We have been thrilled with the response to VIZIO Fandemonium in just the first year," said Lily Knowles, VP Product Marketing, VIZIO. "To reward our fans, we want to continue upgrading their Fan Zone experience, delivering relevant content and unique opportunities to compete and demonstrate their fan passion. We believe the site's new features will do just that, while providing something for every type of fan across any entertainment category."

This year's updated college match-up zone on the VIZIO Fandemonium landing page takes rival college football teams playing each other on the field to a whole new level.  The hottest match-ups are pitted against one another each week, and fans are then encouraged to take to Twitter to make noise for their favorite team by tweeting the hashtag for their selection and earning Fandemonium points while doing so. The interactive college match-up page collects the social conversation around each team and shares the real-time results of which team's fans are making the most noise.

To check out the revamped VIZIO Fandemonium platform and to register, please visit VIZIOFanZone.com. Also, fans can locate and connect with VIZIO on Twitter @VIZIO, and use #VIZIOFans when sharing across social channels.
