How to Enter Dry January Sweepstakes and Giveaways
Enter Dry January drawings correctly with entry steps, eligibility limits, deadlines, and winner rules.
To enter Dry January sweepstakes and giveaways, submit the sponsor's entry form during the listed entry period with the requested contact and preference details. Dry January is a month-long break from alcohol, and food and drink brands offer themed drawings tied to that break. Those drawings are chances to win, not free items for joining.
According to Heineken USA's rules, all cited U.S. sweepstakes state no purchase is necessary and buying will not improve odds, so never pay to enter or claim and always check the sponsor's rules for period, eligibility, and winner notice Heineken USA's Dry January rules.

Read the winner-notification section first. Note how you will be contacted, how fast you must reply, and what ID you must show.
Do you need to join Dry January to enter?
No. Participation tracking and sweepstakes entry are separate. According to Alcohol Change UK, the Dry January challenge asks participants to download the free Try Dry app and sign up for daily motivational emails starting Jan.
1 to track dry days, units, calories, and money saved Alcohol Change UK's challenge FAQ. That app helps track a personal break from alcohol. It does not enter you in a brand drawing.
