Consumer-Driven QSR Burger Contests

The Burger King Million Dollar Whopper Contest is On Now

— February 5, 2024 — Marketing
The Burger King Million Dollar Whopper Contest has been announced as the brand's first-ever initiative that invites consumers to have their say in what the brand's next burger should look like.

The contest can be entered online or via the brand's app where consumers can submit their Whopper creation using a free Royal Perks account. Fans can create a burger with up to eight toppings before submitting it, which will produce an artificial intelligence (AI)-generated image and original jingle inspired by their recipe for sharing on social media.

The Burger King Million Dollar Whopper Contest is running through March 17, 2024 and will see finalists put to a vote with the winner ultimately receiving the $1-million prize.
