Iceland’s £5,000 Christmas giveaway closes 15 November – how to enter for free

Iceland’s Christmas giveaway is worth up to £5,000. Find out what’s included, who’s eligible and how to enter free before 15 November 2026.

Iceland is giving one person the chance to win a Christmas prize package worth up to £5,000, including food shopping vouchers, decorations and a £1,000 gift card.

And you don’t need to spend anything to enter.

The supermarket’s ‘Make Christmas Magical’ competition is free to enter, but you’ll need to be quick.

Entries close at 11.59pm on Sunday 15 November 2026.

What could you win?

There’s one prize package up for grabs, which includes:

  • £3,000 in Iceland gift cards, advertised as a year’s supply of food.
  • Christmas decorations worth up to £1,000 for the winner’s home.
  • A £1,000 Love2shop e-Gift Card to use with participating retailers, subject to the card’s terms.

That adds up to a maximum prize value of £5,000.

It’s worth knowing that the winner won’t receive £5,000 in cash. Most of the prize comes in gift cards, with the rest made up of Christmas decorations.

How to enter Iceland’s Christmas giveaway

You don’t need to be an Iceland customer or buy anything to enter.

Here’s what to do:

  1. Head to Iceland’s official Christmas giveaway page
  2. Click the ‘Enter Now’ button and fill in your details
  3. In 100 words or less, explain why you’d like Iceland to help make your Christmas magical
  4. Submit your entry before 11.59pm on Sunday 15 November 2026

You could explain what winning would mean to you or your family, or how the prize would make Christmas a little easier.

Just keep your answer within the 100-word limit.

You can only enter once, and there’s no purchase necessary. You will need internet access to complete the form.

Who can enter?

The competition is open to anyone who:

  • Is aged 18 or over
  • Lives in Great Britain (England, Scotland or Wales)
  • Submits their entry before the deadline

Unfortunately, residents of Northern Ireland aren’t eligible.

Skint Dad says:

A year’s supply of food sounds fantastic, especially with supermarket prices being what they are.

But there’s something worth pointing out.

The £3,000 Iceland gift card prize works out at around £57.70 a week if you spread it over a full year.

For some families, that could cover a big chunk of their weekly shopping. For others, it wouldn’t cover the full bill.

It’s a brilliant prize to have a chance of winning, and because entry is free, there’s no money to lose.

Just don’t rely on winning it to pay for Christmas. There’s only one winner, after all.

If you’re trying to get your food spending down in the meantime, we’ve got plenty of ways to save money on groceries that you can start using straight away.

When will the winner find out?

Iceland says one winner will be selected by an independent adjudicator from all eligible entries.

The winner will be contacted by Friday 20 November 2026 and must claim their prize within seven days.

Make sure the contact details you provide are correct, and check your emails, including your junk folder, so you don’t miss a message.

And if someone contacts you claiming you’ve won and asks for money or gift card codes, don’t send anything. Check with Iceland through its official website.

Winning isn’t guaranteed, but entering won’t cost you anything.
