Here's how you can get paid to visit Christmas Markets and drink mulled wine

Do you love spending time at Christmas markets and think there is no better way to spend the festive season than sipping mulled wine as you browse through all the stalls?

If so, then it is your lucky day - well, possibly - as Premier Inn are officially on the hunt for Christmas lovers in Scotland to take up the mantle as one of their 'Christmas Market Testers' and their are five lucky positions up for grabs.

Yes, you heard that right, you can now apply to spend your time at a Christmas market and get paid to drink mulled wine as you spend your day leisurely sipping hot chocolate - whilst wandering down the twinkling lights of your favourite market.

In even better news, Premier Inn will contribute towards travel costs, as well providing chosen testers with a free stay, including breakfast, in a Premier Inn hotel close to the market they’re visiting.

Free breakfast? Money for attending one of the seasons biggest attractions? Sounds like the perfect job for anyone who lives, eats and sleeps Christmas.

So, if you have found yourself visiting every Christmas market that you can find, then Premier Inn wants to hear from you and why you are the right person for the prestigious role.

Premier Inn have said that the dream role is available for anyone who can test out markets in the UK, Ireland and Germany.

Each of the five lucky winners will need to report back once they’ve visited the market, sharing their experience of their chosen market, and having taken photos of the lights, stalls and decorations - all of which will be used in a report by Premier Inn on the best locations for visiting Christmas markets.

To be in with a chance of winning, you will need to tell Premier Inn about your last visit to a Christmas market and what you enjoyed about it in no more than 250 words.

Simon Ewins, Managing Director at Premier Inn commented: “Here at Premier Inn, we love all things Christmas – and visiting a Christmas market is the perfect way to visit a new city, which is why we want to send five Christmas fans to some of the UK and Europe’s best festive spots to report back, safe in the knowledge they can rest easy with us after a busy day exploring the stalls."

“Christmas markets have gone from strength to strength in recent years and so we know our official Christmas Market Tester role will be a dream job for many, with the opportunity to explore markets in the UK, Dublin and Germany all on offer”.

If you think that you could be the right person for the role as a Christmas Market Tester, then you can fill in an application form online.

Christmas enthusiasts have until November 28 to apply for the role and get ready for the festive period.
