Miller Lite is giving away $79,560 in total prizes this summer across 288 winners. Both prizes are paid out via Venmo — no gift cards, no product shipments, just cash straight to your account.
| Prize | Amount | Winners | What It Covers |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🏆 Grand Prize | $304 via Venmo | 140 winners | Equivalent to 250 Miller Lites — they’re buying the beers! |
| 🥇 First Prize | $250 via Venmo | 148 winners | Cash to spend however you want this summer |
Winners must have a Venmo account in good standing to accept the prize. Prizes are fulfilled approximately 8–10 weeks after each drawing. You need a Venmo account — it’s free and takes about 2 minutes to set up if you don’t have one yet.
When you fill out the entry form at millerlite.com/summer, you can enter an optional keyword to get entered into a bonus keyword drawing on top of the national sweepstakes. Find your state below and use that keyword — it’s an extra shot at winning for free!
Tip: If your state qualifies for multiple keywords, you can only use one per entry — but you can enter daily, so use a different keyword each day if multiple apply to your state!
Entering is free and takes under a minute. Here’s exactly what to do:
| Step | What to Do |
|---|---|
| 1 | Go to millerlite.com/summer |
| 2 | Enter your date of birth and ZIP code to verify age and location |
| 3 | Fill out the form: full name, email, home address, date of birth |
| 4 | Enter your state’s keyword in the optional keyword field (see above!) |
| 5 | Submit — you’re entered into the national drawing AND the keyword drawing |
| 6 | Come back every day — limit 1 entry per day |
You can also enter via a sponsored Facebook or Instagram ad if you see one — that gets you into the national drawing too. No purchase necessary either way.
There are 4 drawings between now and September — and entries carry over from one drawing to the next, so every entry you submit today counts for all future drawings too!
| Drawing | Date | Grand Prizes | First Prizes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Drawing 1 | On/around May 22, 2026 | 32 winners ($304 each) | 32 winners ($250 each) |

The more days you enter, the more entries you stack up across all four drawings. Start now and you’ll be in every single one!
Whether you win the $304 or not, summer is the season for getting outside and gathering with people you love. A great backyard party doesn’t need to be expensive — it just needs a few key elements done right.
| Element | Budget Tip |
|---|---|
| 🧊 Drinks Station | A big cooler with ice keeps drinks cold for hours — fill it the night before to save time |
| 🍔 Food | Burgers and hot dogs are crowd favorites and cost under $2 per person — keep it simple |
| 🎶 Music | A Bluetooth speaker on a patio table covers a whole backyard — no DJ needed |
| 🪑 Seating | Lawn chairs + a few blankets on the grass = instant casual seating for any crowd size |
| 🌅 Timing | Start at 5pm to catch the golden hour light and avoid the hottest part of the day |
