the volume bracket challenge

The NCAA Tournament is back – brackets will be busted, underdogs will rise (or attempt to!), and for a few weeks, every game is win or go home.

This year, fans have a chance to turn their college basketball knowledge into something more with The Volume Bracket Challenge — a free-to-play competition that awards every participant a chance to win a Florida vacation package, on the house.

Play The Volume Bracket Challenge

Filling out a bracket is a March tradition. But this time, there’s more than bragging rights up for grabs.

The top scorer in this year’s The Volume Bracket Challenge will walk away with a prize package that includes:

  • A two-night stay at the Hard Rock Guitar Hotel in South Florida
  • Round-trip coach airfare
  • $1,000 in digital rewards in the Hard Rock Bet app
  • And a shoutout from your favorite The Volume show

It’s a mix of travel, cash value, and a bit of spotlight — all tied to how well you can navigate the chaos of the tournament.

Free to Play, Hard to Predict

There’s no cost to enter, making it an easy addition to your March routine. All it takes is a bracket — and maybe a few bold calls.

Of course, predicting March Madness is never simple. Every year delivers its share of surprises, whether it’s a Cinderella run, a buzzer-beater finish, or a powerhouse falling earlier than expected.

That’s part of the appeal. The unpredictability is exactly what makes getting it right so rewarding.
