About This Sweepstakes

New Amsterdam Vodka has partnered with the UFC to create an incredible year-long sweepstakes offering 100 winners the chance to experience the excitement of UFC events. With a total prize value of $59,600, this sweepstakes combines live UFC action with UFC Store shopping sprees, giving MMA fans multiple ways to win throughout 2026.

The Tile Tap Out Sweepstakes runs for the entire year, with 12 monthly entry periods and winners selected each month. Whether you enter once or every month, you’ll have chances to win UFC tickets or UFC Store gift cards. The structure means there are always new opportunities to win, and entries from earlier months automatically roll into the final grand prize drawing.

The Grand Prize

One lucky winner will receive the ultimate UFC experience valued at $6,800. This isn’t just tickets to a fight—it’s a complete VIP experience that includes:

Two Floor Tickets to a UFC Event: Floor seats put you right in the action, just feet away from the Octagon. You’ll feel every strike, hear every coach’s instruction, and experience the intensity of UFC competition up close. These are among the best seats in the venue, typically reserved for VIPs and celebrities. You can bring one guest (both must be 21+) to share this incredible experience.

Post Octagon Tour: After the fights, you’ll get exclusive access to the Post Octagon Tour on the same day. This behind-the-scenes experience lets you see areas of the venue that regular ticket holders never access. You’ll walk where the fighters walked, stand where champions were crowned, and get a unique perspective on what makes UFC events so special.

Commemorative Event Poster: Take home an official event poster as a memento of your UFC experience. These posters are collectible items that commemorate the specific event you attended, featuring the main card fighters and event branding.

The grand prize winner must attend the event within six months of being notified and select the specific UFC event within two months. All UFC events for this prize take place in the United States, so you won’t need a passport or international travel arrangements.

First Place Prizes

Each month from January through November 2026, one first place winner will receive two Center Riser level tickets to a UFC event, valued at $2,400. That’s 11 first place winners total throughout the year.

Center Riser seats offer excellent views of the Octagon from an elevated position. You’re high enough to see the entire cage and all the action, but close enough to feel the energy of the crowd and see the fighters clearly. These seats provide the perfect balance of perspective and proximity, making them highly sought after by UFC fans.

Like the grand prize, first place winners receive two tickets so they can bring a guest (both must be 21+). The tickets must be used within six months of being awarded, and winners must select their event within two months. All travel, lodging, and other expenses beyond the tickets themselves are the winner’s responsibility.

With 11 first place prizes awarded throughout the year, you have multiple chances to win these premium tickets. Enter every month to maximize your opportunities.

Second Place Prizes

The most winners come from the second place prize category—88 winners total will each receive a $300 UFC Store gift card. That’s eight second place winners selected each month from January through November.

The UFC Store (www.UFCStore.com) offers everything an MMA fan could want. Browse official UFC apparel including t-shirts, hoodies, hats, and fight shorts. Shop for training gear like gloves, wraps, and protective equipment. Find collectibles, memorabilia, and fighter-specific merchandise. With $300 to spend, you can stock up on gear, outfit yourself for training, or collect items from your favorite fighters.

Gift cards provide flexibility—use them all at once for a major purchase, or spread them out over multiple orders. The UFC Store regularly updates its inventory with new designs and products, so you’ll always find something fresh to buy. And unlike the ticket prizes, there’s no travel required—your gift card is delivered digitally after you’re verified as a winner.

With 88 second place prizes awarded throughout the year, these are your best odds of winning. Even if you don’t win tickets to a live event, a $300 shopping spree at the UFC Store is a substantial prize for any MMA fan.

How to Enter

Monthly Entry Periods

The sweepstakes is divided into 12 monthly entry periods, with winners selected for each period. Here’s how it works:

Entry Periods 1-11 (January-November): Each month, one first place winner receives UFC tickets ($2,400 value) and eight second place winners each receive $300 UFC Store gift cards. Winners are drawn on or about the 2nd of the following month. For example, January entries result in winners drawn around February 2nd.

Entry Period 12 (December): The final month includes the grand prize drawing. All entries from the entire year (January through December) are automatically included in this drawing, plus any new entries submitted in December. The grand prize winner receives the ultimate UFC experience valued at $6,800.

This structure means entering early and often gives you the most chances to win. An entry submitted in January could win that month’s prizes AND is automatically entered for the December grand prize. Someone who enters all 12 months has 12 chances to win monthly prizes plus 12 entries in the grand prize drawing.

About UFC

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is the world’s premier mixed martial arts organization, featuring the best fighters across multiple weight classes and disciplines. UFC events combine striking, grappling, and ground fighting in a sport that demands peak athleticism, technical skill, and mental toughness.

Attending a live UFC event is an experience unlike any other. The energy in the arena is electric, with thousands of fans creating an atmosphere that television can’t fully capture. You’ll see multiple fights throughout the night, building to the main event where championship belts or rankings are often on the line. Between fights, the production includes video packages, interviews, and entertainment that keeps the crowd engaged.

The fighters you’ll see are world-class athletes who have dedicated their lives to mastering multiple martial arts disciplines. Many UFC fighters become household names, transcending the sport to achieve mainstream celebrity status. Watching these athletes compete live gives you a new appreciation for their skill, conditioning, and courage.

Maximizing Your Chances

With 100 total winners and the ability to enter monthly, this sweepstakes offers excellent odds compared to one-time contests. Here’s how to maximize your chances:

Enter Every Month: Set a monthly reminder to submit your entry. Each entry period is separate, so entering in January doesn’t automatically enter you in February—you need to submit a new entry each month. Consistent monthly entries give you 12 chances at monthly prizes plus 12 entries in the grand prize drawing.

Enter Early in Each Period: While entering on the last day of a month counts the same as entering on the first day, entering early ensures you don’t forget or miss the deadline. Plus, you’ll know sooner if you won that month’s prizes.

Use Accurate Information: Winners must be verified before receiving prizes. Make sure all your information is accurate and up-to-date. Use an email address you check regularly so you don’t miss winner notification.

Respond Quickly: Winners have only two days to respond to notification and two days to return required paperwork. Check your email regularly (including spam folders) during the sweepstakes period, especially around the 2nd of each month when winners are notified.

Understand the Rules: Read the complete official rules to ensure you remain eligible. Understanding requirements for prize acceptance, especially for the ticket prizes, helps you plan accordingly if you win.

What Happens If You Win

Winners are selected through random drawing on or about the 2nd of the month following each entry period. If you’re selected, you’ll be notified via email. You must respond within two days of notification—failure to respond results in forfeiture of the prize.

After responding, you’ll receive an Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability/Publicity Release that must be completed and returned within two days. This paperwork verifies your eligibility and releases the sponsor from liability related to prize acceptance and use.

For second place prizes (UFC Store gift cards), your $300 digital gift code will be sent to the address you provided after verification is complete. You can use it immediately at www.UFCStore.com.

For first place and grand prizes (UFC tickets), you’ll need to select your preferred UFC event within two months of being notified. The event must take place within six months of notification. The sponsor will coordinate ticket delivery once the event is confirmed. Remember that you’re responsible for all travel, lodging, and expenses beyond the tickets themselves.

All winners are responsible for applicable taxes on their prizes. The grand prize and first place winners will receive tax forms as required by law.

Eligibility Requirements

The New Amsterdam & UFC Tile Tap Out Sweepstakes is open to legal residents of the United States (excluding Utah) and the District of Columbia who are 21 years of age or older. The sweepstakes is void in Utah, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, and other U.S. territories.

Employees of the sponsor (E. & J. Gallo Winery), administrators, UFC, and retail/wholesale alcohol licensees, along with their immediate family members and household members, are not eligible to enter or win.

The sweepstakes is subject to all federal, state, and local laws and regulations. By entering, you agree to be bound by the official rules and the decisions of the sponsor and administrator.

The Value of UFC Experiences

Beyond the monetary value of the prizes, winning UFC tickets provides experiences that create lasting memories. Attending a live UFC event means being part of a moment in sports history. You might witness a championship change hands, see a record broken, or watch a future hall-of-famer in their prime.

The atmosphere at UFC events is unique in sports. The crowd is knowledgeable and passionate, appreciating technical grappling as much as dramatic knockouts. The intimacy of the arena (compared to stadiums used for other sports) means you’re always close to the action, regardless of your seat location.

For the grand prize winner, the Post Octagon Tour adds another dimension to the experience. You’ll gain insights into the production, see the preparation areas, and understand what goes into creating a world-class sporting event. This behind-the-scenes access is rarely available to the public.

Even the second place prizes offer value beyond the $300 gift card amount. UFC Store merchandise lets you represent your fandom, support your favorite fighters, and connect with the global MMA community. Quality UFC gear is built to last, so your prize continues providing value long after you receive it.
