While in the air stop off at a few exotic locations and visit some endangered animal sanctuaries in Africa with Emily; she's not only an award winning actress but also an animal advocate. To top if off why not take local journalist and TV host Noelle McCarthy for high tea with U2 in their home country Ireland and maybe a jam session afterwards!

Ideas must be submitted via www.vrepublic.co.nz by 31 October.

Whether it's an unforgettable gig, an incredible event or some kind of amazing road trip, suggest it, vote for it and enjoy it - and V will foot the bill.
