Terms & Conditions
Last updated: 7 October 2026
1. The competition
The Zombabies Halloween Colouring Competition is a free-to-enter colouring competition run by Zombabies (“Zombabies”, “we”, “us”).
No purchase is necessary to enter.
2. Who can enter
The competition is open to residents of the United Kingdom.
Entrants under 18 must have permission from a parent or legal guardian.
Children who are too young to operate their own social-media account must have their entry posted by a parent or guardian using the adult’s account.
A parent or guardian may submit entries on behalf of more than one child.
3. Competition dates
Entries open on 7 October 2026.
Entries close at 23:59 UK time on 27 October 2026.
Five finalists will be selected and announced on or around 28 October 2026.
Public voting will take place on 29 and 30 October 2026.
The winner will be announced on 31 October 2026.
Entries received after the closing time will not be eligible.
4. How to enter
To enter:
- Download an official Zombabies colouring sheet from zombabies.co.uk.
- Complete the artwork using physical or digital colouring materials.
- Post a clear photograph, scan or video of the completed artwork on TikTok or Instagram before the closing time.
- Tag the relevant Zombabies account:
- TikTok: @zombabies8
- Instagram: @zom.babies
- Follow the Zombabies account on the platform used to enter:
- TikTok: @zombabies8
- Instagram: @zom.babies
- Include the hashtag #ZombabiesColouringCompetition.
Entrants must still be following the relevant Zombabies account when the competition closes and when the winner is selected.
The post must remain available for Zombabies to verify the entry.
If an entrant’s account is private, they should also send the entry or post to the relevant Zombabies account by direct message before the closing time so that we can see it.
Each entry must be the entrant’s own colouring work.
AI-generated or fully automated artwork is not eligible.
Multiple entries are permitted. Each entry must feature a separately completed Zombabies colouring sheet or a genuinely different completed design.
5. Choosing the finalists
After entries close, Zombabies will select five finalists.
Entries will be considered on:
- creativity;
- effort;
- use of colour;
- overall presentation; and
- Zombabies/Halloween spirit.
Professional artistic ability is not required. The aim is to celebrate fun, creativity and imagination.
Zombabies may select more than one entry from the same entrant, but reserves the right to limit the number of finalist places awarded to a single person in order to keep the final vote varied and fair.
6. Public vote
The five finalists will be featured on the official Zombabies TikTok and/or Instagram accounts.
Each finalist will be clearly identified or numbered.
People will be invited to vote for their favourite by commenting with the relevant finalist number on the designated voting post.
Unless otherwise stated on the voting post:
- one vote per social-media account per platform will be counted;
- likes alone will not count as votes; and
- valid votes received before the public voting deadline will be combined to determine the winner.
The finalist receiving the most valid votes will win.
If two or more finalists receive the same number of valid votes, Zombabies will select the winner from those tied entries using the judging criteria above.
Zombabies may disregard votes that we reasonably believe have been generated through bots, purchased engagement, duplicate or fake accounts, or other deliberate manipulation.
7. The prize
There will be one winner.
The winner will receive:
One limited-edition Zombabies T-shirt, including standard UK delivery.
The winner or their parent or guardian will be able to choose an available size.
The prize:
- has no cash alternative;
- cannot be exchanged for credit;
- is subject to reasonable availability; and
- may be replaced with an equivalent or better prize if circumstances outside our control make the advertised prize unavailable.
8. Winner announcement and prize claim
The winner is expected to be announced on 31 October 2026 through the official Zombabies social-media accounts.
We will also attempt to contact the winning entrant through the account used to enter.
If the winner is under 18, prize arrangements must be handled through their parent or guardian.
The winner will have 7 days from our first contact attempt to respond and provide the information reasonably required to deliver the prize.
If the winner cannot be contacted, does not respond within that period, or is found to be ineligible, Zombabies may award the prize to the next eligible finalist.
9. Artwork and permission to share entries
Entrants retain ownership of their artwork.
By entering the competition, the entrant — or their parent or guardian where applicable — gives Zombabies permission to reproduce, repost and display the submitted artwork for purposes connected with:
- running the competition;
- showing competition entries and finalists;
- announcing the winner;
- promoting the Zombabies Colouring Competition; and
- celebrating Zombabies community artwork on our website and social-media channels.
Existing social-media posts featuring competition entries may remain visible after the competition has ended.
Zombabies will not claim ownership of an entrant’s original artwork.
10. Children and publicity
We will not intentionally publish a child’s full name, home address, contact information or other unnecessary personal information.
Where a child’s entry is selected as a finalist or winner, we may refer to the entrant by first name, nickname or another description agreed with their parent or guardian.
A parent or guardian may ask us not to identify the child publicly.
11. Personal information
Any personal information collected for the competition will be used only where reasonably necessary to:
- administer the competition;
- verify entries;
- contact finalists or the winner; and
- arrange delivery of the prize.
Entering this competition will not automatically subscribe an entrant or parent or guardian to Zombabies marketing communications.
Any marketing consent will be requested separately.
Personal information will be handled in accordance with the Zombabies Privacy Policy published on zombabies.co.uk.
12. Inappropriate or invalid entries
Zombabies may reject or remove an entry if it:
- does not comply with these terms;
- is submitted after the deadline;
- contains unlawful, offensive or inappropriate content;
- infringes another person’s rights;
- uses manipulated or fraudulent voting activity; or
- is otherwise reasonably considered inappropriate for a family-focused Zombabies competition.
13. TikTok and Instagram
This competition is not sponsored, endorsed, administered by or associated with TikTok, Instagram or Meta.
Entrants are responsible for complying with the terms and age requirements of any social-media platform they use.
TikTok, Instagram and Meta are not responsible for administering the competition or providing the prize.
14. Changes or cancellation
Zombabies may amend, suspend or cancel the competition where circumstances outside our reasonable control make this necessary.
If that happens, we will aim to treat existing entrants fairly and communicate any significant change through our website or social-media accounts.
