To finish 2024 with a bang, Gala Games has unveiled an awesome weekly way to collect $GALA… The Epic Gala Sweepstakes.
Prize drawings are happening every week on Wednesday at 12pm PT. Don’t miss out. Next week’s drawing (December 11th) will be the biggest yet, with more than 12 MILLION $GALA in the prize pot!! 🤯
Progressive $GALA Prizes
Epic Gala Sweepstakes is a lottery-style game in which players submit tickets to pick numbers and enter themselves in the weekly prize drawing.
Prizes are a combination of $GALA, the core utility/gas token of the GalaChain ecosystem, and additional Sweepstakes tickets.
Whenever $GALA is burned, 2% of that $GALA is always added to the ongoing prize pot in the Epic Gala Sweepstakes. Any $GALA that is not won in each drawing rolls over into the next weekly drawing.
Additionally, the team is injecting an extra 1 MILLION $GALA to the prize pot every single day in December for major prize possibilities!
Tickets Do Not Expire
The newest Epic Gala Sweepstakes update reveals that tickets will no longer expire if left unused by each new Sweepstakes drawing. This means players will have the freedom to wait until the time (or prizes 😉) are right, adding a new dimension of strategy to the game!
How to Enter
Anyone in an eligible location* can enter the weekly Epic Gala Sweepstakes drawing with no purchase required, using the mail-in option. For more details on this no-purchase-necessary method of entry, check out the Terms & Conditions.
All tickets in the Epic Gala Sweepstakes are free, collected by using $GALA on eligible ecosystem actions. To be classified as an eligible action, $GALA must be burned as part of the action. Whenever a user action leads to a $GALA burn, the total $GALA burn counts toward your accumulation of free Sweepstakes tickets.
Eligible Purchases
Sometimes, eligible actions are item purchases in which all $GALA spent is burned – Typically, these are items sold for Gala Games owned IPs like VEXI, Mirandus and Common Grounds World.
Transactional Fees
Additionally, $GALA is burned when it is used in transactional fees, for transferring, minting or bridging tokens.
Tapper $GALA
In Gala Games’ Telegram mini app ecosystem, all $GALA used in-game is burned, so 100% of $GALA spent on features like buying Steal Tokens, Premium Quests and Gala Stash counts toward your free Sweepstakes entries.
Connect your Gala Games wallet in the following free games:
When you create or accept a token swap on GalaConnect, all $GALA fees count toward your free Sweepstakes tickets. If you use the project token creation tool to make a new token, $GALA burned when your token is approved will also count.
How to Play
Playing Epic Gala Sweepstakes is as simple as using your free tickets.
*Please note that this fee is also burned, counting as 1/10 of your next free ticket!
Epic Gala Sweepstakesis only the beginning of a new era in Gala Games chance-based gaming, powered by a state of the art GalaChain RNG system, coming soon…
The prize continues to grow in anticipation of the 3rd weekly Sweepstakes drawing, next Wednesday on December 11th at 12pm PT! 🤯

The community has spoken… Epic Gala Sweepstakes is a hit! Throughout the GalaChain ecosystem, players are taking advantage of the new $GALA incentive, collecting tickets and entering to win!!
The first historic prize drawing happened just a couple hours ago, at 12pm PT… $GALA prizes have been distributed to the winners and we’re already gearing up for the next big prize drawing, on Wednesday, December 4th, 2024.
Gala Games has the best community in web3– we love digesting and responding to community feedback. We also LOVE adding new layers of strategy and gamification wherever we can, so we’re thrilled to announce the latest new development to Epic Gala Sweepstakes…
YOUR FREE TICKETS NO LONGER EXPIRE.
The original plan was to require all outstanding tickets to be activated by the time of the drawing or become useless… the Use-it-or-lose-it approach. But based on community feedback we started exploring the possibilities of allowing users to hold their tickets as long as they want.
It was quickly decided that removing the expiration from your free tickets will give you greater freedom to strategize about when and how to activate your tickets, enhancing the fun and leveling up the experience.
So get out there and collect your tickets through qualifying actions on GalaChain (enter free through the mail-in option described in the Terms & Conditions, or collect a free ticket for every 100 $GALA you get burned . Keep watching the prize pot grow and jump in as soon as you’re feeling lucky!!
The Gala Games team is excited to announce a weekly new chance for players to earn $GALA… Introducing Epic Gala Sweepstakes.
Each week as $GALA is burned throughout the GalaChain ecosystem, a portion of that $GALA (2%) will be spared and set aside, added to the current Epic Gala Sweepstakes prizes.
Whenever $GALA is spent on certain digital goods or used as a transactional fee, that $GALA is removed from $GALA’s current supply.
Here are a few examples of actions that cause $GALA to be burned (removed from supply):
Purchasing a first-party Gala Games item with $GALA
Paying $GALA as a transaction fee for redeeming, transferring or bridging tokens
Using $GALA in any of our Telegram mini-app tapper games
This new no-purchase-necessary game of chance will issue free tickets in the upcoming drawing to users whenever they burn $GALA or enter by mail.
Right now, for every 100 $GALA used in eligible ways, you’ll receive a free Epic Gala Sweepstakes Ticket with a chance to earn $GALA in the inaugural drawing. Additionally, anyone is welcome to take advantage of the free mail-in ticket option described in the Epic Gala Sweepstakes Terms & Conditions.
Get ready for Epic Gala Sweepstakes. 🔥🔥🔥
Use $GALA, Earn $GALA
This is an ongoing sweepstakes gaming event that allows players to pick their own numbers with each free ticket as each event progresses toward the drawing.
Each ticket is activated when its owner picks a set of numbers. At the event’s end, 8 numbers are drawn and entrants earn $GALA based on how many numbers they were able to match from the picked winners. Once the winning numbers are announced and the winners are paid out, it’s time to begin again with a new event!
Each weekly drawing will take place at 12pm PT on Wednesday. ⌚
Transparent Prize Drawings
The GalaChain team is excited to take this opportunity to create an important GalaChain application: A decentralized random number generator (RNG).
Fairness and transparency are paramount to an effective gamified giveaway system like this. It’s important for participants to know that the system’s integrity can be trusted and not tampered with.
For the first few drawings, Gala Games will employ a trusted third party RNG system for the selection and delivery of winning numbers, but shortly after launch, we expect to release a fully decentralized, GalaChain-based RNG system. More details about this upcoming system are coming soon in a Path to Transparency blog, which we will share with the community for feedback and discussion.
Ultimately, the team envisions a dedicated GalaChain node network with the purpose of powering on-chain RNG features for fairness, security and transparency in games of chance.
Basically, Epic Gala Sweepstakes is only the beginning.
The First Drawing
Starting immediately, every time you use $GALA in eligible ways you will automatically receive free Epic Gala Sweepstakes tickets at a rate of 100 $GALA = 1 Epic Gala Sweepstakes Ticket.
For the first drawing, the prizes will consist of 2% of all $GALA removed from circulating supply during the contest period, plus a special injection of 1 Million $GALA from the team.
The first Epic Gala Sweepstakes drawing will be held on Wednesday, November 27th, 2024 at 12pm PT.
Maybe it’s time to level up your Gala Games NFT collection. 😎 With the items linked below, all the $GALA you spend counts toward free Epic Gala Sweepstakes Tickets! 👇
All tickets are only valid for the next available drawing; unused tickets will expire and have no future utility.
No purchase is required to acquire a free ticket in each week’s Epic Gala Sweepstakes. Requirements for mail-in entries are available in the Terms & Conditions.
When tickets are submitted (numbers picked), the user incurs a transaction fee of 10 $GALA. Please note that $GALA spent on this fee is burned and therefore qualifies toward additional free tickets.
Prizes for each drawing will consist of a portion (2%) of the $GALA redeemed throughout the contest period, rollover prizes that were not won in previous drawings, and any $GALA that has been injected into the prizes at Gala Games’ discretion.
Not all platform purchases on Gala Games, Gala Music and Gala Film are eligible to accrue free Epic Gala Sweepstakes tickets – only those that cause $GALA to be removed from supply – A list of eligible Gala Games items is available HERE.
Introducing the most exciting new way to support the future of decentralized music. 😎
This is the result of an epic contest in collaboration with our friends at LabelRadar. What started as hundreds of submissions from aspiring Gala Music artists was narrowed down to a top ten list by our esteemed panel of curators, including Macy Gray, PLS&TY and key members of the Gala Music team. Then, we put it to the Gala Music community for a vote using our state-of-the-art GalaChain powered NextUp voting system.
The votes closed and the community had spoken. After handsome cash prizes for the top 5 and music production software packages valued in the thousands for the top 3, it’s now time for the main event… The LabelRadar Box.
