In its biggest promotion of the year, Guitar Center will celebrate the legacy of Led Zeppelin with the first of three sweepstakes beginning today.

These holiday promotions have something for everyone, from the chance to attend the most anticipated live concert event in the past decade, the December 10th SOLD-OUT Tribute Concert to Ahmet Ertegun in London (including a performance by Led Zeppelin), to winning the ultimate "Led Zeppelin Rock 'n' Roll customized packages," to hourly in-store giveaways on Black Friday.
