Teachers can now enter to win a trip to Walt Disney World, and the Muppets are helping Disney say thank you. Disney Imagination Campus has opened its 2027 Teachers Sweepstakes, with a grand prize of a four-day, three-night stay at Walt Disney World Resort.
The prize package includes airfare, resort accommodations and theme park tickets. Winners also get an inside look at Disney Imagination Campus and its work with student groups, plus an invitation to an exclusive 2027 Teachers Celebration built around the role educators play in sparking creativity in the classroom.
How To Enter
The sweepstakes is open now, and it is not limited to teachers entering on their own behalf. Anyone who wants to recognize a teacher can enter too. Entries are accepted until 11:59:59 p.m. Eastern on January 17, 2027, and no purchase is necessary to enter or win. The full details and entry form are on the official Disney Imagination Campus site, and the sweepstakes was rolled out on Thursday with the Muppets as its face.
As with any sweepstakes, read the official rules before entering, since they spell out eligibility, the number of winners and how the travel dates work.
What Disney Imagination Campus Is
Disney Imagination Campus is Disney’s education program for school groups, youth organizations, performing arts groups and students. Longtime Disney fans may remember it by its older names, Disney Youth Programs and, before that, Disney Youth Education Series. The idea has stayed the same through every rebrand: give young people a chance to learn, perform and explore inside the parks.
Groups that travel through the program take part in academic and performance experiences built around the parks, which is the work the winning teachers will get a closer look at. The teachers who organize those trips are the ones Disney is trying to reach with this sweepstakes, along with any educator who has never brought a group to the parks before.
Why The Muppets
The Muppets have been a big part of Walt Disney World this year. Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster at Disney’s Hollywood Studios reopened as a Muppets coaster, and for the holidays it is running The Electric Mayhem Holiday Concert, with Cyndi Lauper as a special guest. Kermit, Miss Piggy and the rest of the gang make a natural fit for a campaign about creativity and the people who teach it.
For teachers who have spent the fall in the classroom, a free trip to Walt Disney World is not a bad way to start 2027. The window to enter stays open into mid-January, so there is plenty of time to nominate yourself or a favorite educator.
