Fans Can Win a Dream Stay Inside Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom

Imagine stepping inside Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom and spending the night in the famously exclusive suite tucked within its walls. That dream could soon become a reality, thanks to a new Disney sweepstakes. But there’s more to this contest than just fairy-tale magic—it might also be a strategic move by Disney to draw visitors back amid upcoming park changes and closures in 2025.

An Overnight Stay Fit for Royalty

Hidden inside Cinderella Castle is the enchanting Cinderella Castle Suite, a space that most Disney fans only dream of entering. Lavishly decorated with intricate designs, shimmering gold accents, and whimsical Disney details, this suite offers a once-in-a-lifetime experience. While it’s nearly impossible to book under normal circumstances, Disney’s latest sweepstakes is giving one lucky winner (and up to three guests) the chance to spend the night in this magical hideaway.

The winner won’t just get the royal treatment for one night—the package also includes breakfast at Cinderella’s Royal Table, two nights at a deluxe Disney resort, three-day park hopper tickets for four, a $500 Disney gift card, and round-trip airfare for those living over 200 miles from the parks.

Supporting a Magical Cause

The sweepstakes is more than just a chance to live like royalty. All proceeds support Give Kids The World Village, an 89-acre nonprofit resort near Central Florida’s theme parks. The organization provides free, weeklong vacations to critically ill children and their families, offering accommodations, park tickets, meals, and more. Since its founding, Give Kids The World has welcomed over 200,000 families from around the globe.

Entering the contest is easy—head to the Give Kids The World Village website to purchase your entries, starting at $10 for a single chance. You can increase your odds by purchasing multiple entries, and there’s even an option to enter by mail if you prefer. Just make sure to get everything in before the March 17th deadline.

Is Disney Trying to Win Fans Back?

While Disney frequently hosts charitable sweepstakes, the timing of this one raises some eyebrows. With several major refurbishments and ride closures planned for 2025, some fans might be hesitant to book their trips. From ongoing construction at EPCOT to rumored changes in Magic Kingdom, these updates could be affecting attendance—and Disney may be using this rare giveaway to generate renewed excitement.

Offering fans a chance to stay in the elusive Cinderella Castle Suite is a surefire way to spark interest, especially during a year when some of the park’s biggest attractions might be unavailable. Whether it’s a clever marketing tactic or just another magical opportunity, this sweepstakes is an experience any Disney fan would love to win.

  1. Give Kids The World is an amazing place for children who have life altering illnesses, some of them are terminally ill. They will stat here on a Make A Wish visit to Disney.
    When I was a nurse in Florida, many of my coworkers volunteered there.
    Every day there is a gift giver who delivers gifts to the children.
    Truly a wonderful place.
