California Sweepstakes & Giveaways 2026
Browse verified sweepstakes and giveaways open to California residents. Every listing is free to enter — no purchase necessary. Updated regularly with the latest contests, prize giveaways, and instant win games available in California.
California is the most populated state in the country, which means sweepstakes open to California residents tend to have the highest entry volumes. The upside: California's large market means many brands run promotions specifically targeting the state.
California law prohibits sponsors from requiring a publicity release as a condition of receiving a prize. This is a unique protection — in most other states, sponsors can require winners to consent to having their name and likeness used in promotional materials.
