Ticket Entry

Which tickets are eligible to be entered in the promotion?

Wild Cherry scratch tickets are eligible for entry in this promotion. They will arrive in retail stores beginning June 6, 2023. No other Iowa Lottery tickets are eligible for entry in this promotion.

Does my Wild Cherry ticket have to be nonwinning to be entered in the promotion?

Yes, your Wild Cherry ticket must be nonwinning to be eligible for entry.

If I enter a ticket in the first part of the promotion before 10 am on July 5, does that ticket count for the second part of the promotion, too?

No, tickets entered before 10 am on July 5 are eligible for the VIP Suite or Grandstand concert ticket packages at the Iowa Speedway only. Players must enter after 10 am on July 5 to be eligible for the Iowa State Fair Grandstand concert ticket packages.

Can I win more than one prize in the promotion?

You can win only one prize per category drawing. For example, you could win an Iowa State Fair Grandstand concert prize in each concert's drawing.
