Few conversations are more contentious than the annual holiday music debate: how early is too early and how much is too much? For those answering "never and the limit does not exist," Hotels.com is hosting the ultimate challenge.

If you can make it through 24 straight hours of holiday bop after holiday bop, Hotels.com will gift you 25 free nights of hotel stays.

Only one person (and a guest) will be chosen to compete in the "Not-So-Silent Night Suite" challenge. The contest is open for entries until 12 a.m. ET on Dec. 12. The (un)lucky winner will spend Dec. 19 through 21 locked into Chicago's Fairmont Hotel on the Magnificent Mile.

"We know that come December, guests are looking for the ultimate winter wonderland stays to really embrace the holiday spirit," Jennifer Dohm, head of PR for Hotels.com, said in a statement shared with Travel + Leisure. "The Not-So-Silent Night Suite by Hotels.com combines the classic holiday hotel pop-up with the lively cultural debate of 'overplayed' holiday music to create the perfect challenge for two travelers to live their best hotel life, holiday style."

But there are a few perks to make the 24 hours into a luxurious, non-stop party. The "Not-so-silent-suite" is decked out to the extreme with not just boughs of holly but a light-up dance floor, karaoke machine, Santa DJ, ornament disco ball and more.

While you're rocking out to 24 straight hours of holiday music, you'll also receive a $500 room service credit (because you can't miss a minute of the tunes) and a $1,000 travel stipend to get you and a guest to and from the hotel.

And, to top it all off, "competitors" will receive a personalized wake-up call video from singer Lance Bass (who might even croon an early-morning rendition of "Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays" if you're lucky).

To enter the contest, visit Hotels.com and explain in 75 words or less why you deserve the 24 hours of holiday cheer. It's beginning to sound a lot like Christmas…
