WIN the trip of a lifetime to see the Northern Lights

Fancy adventuring into the Arctic Circle to capture a wonder of nature? Read on

There are few sights more staggering than the Northern Lights. Gusts of solar wind excite the atmosphere over the Arctic circle and fluoresce, creating washes of amazing colour in the sky. Only people lucky enough to be in a place both northern enough and dark enough are able to see them.

That ‘anyone’ could be you – and you could take a friend along for the ride. To celebrate the uniquely immersive experience of watching a Philips Ambilight TV, we’re organising an expedition to north Norway to capture the Northern Lights in Hollywood-standard video and photography.

It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. But there’s much more to it. As part of the four-day expedition, you and your friend will go snowmobiling, sledding with huskies, camping under the stars, sailing in the fjords and more. It’ll be seriously cold, so we will kit you out with all the gear you need.

Your experiences will be captured and shown to technology fans worldwide – both here on Stuff.tv, and in Philips TV product showcases. A month or so after visiting Norway you will attend the premiere of the documentary we will make of the trip, and relive the experience on a Philips Ambilight television.
