The rides may have stopped, but the excitement continues. The 2026 Orlando Experience Sweepstakes officially concluded in June after delivering an unforgettable week of adventure, entertainment, and family memories in Orlando, Florida. Auto Value proudly celebrated the grand prize winners with a once-in-a-lifetime getaway, giving participants the opportunity to experience some of the world’s most iconic theme parks and attractions.

From June 15-20, winners and their guests enjoyed five incredible days in the heart of Central Florida, exploring destinations of their choice, including Walt Disney World Resort, Universal Orlando Resort, and many of the area’s other renowned attractions. Whether they spent their days riding roller coasters, meeting beloved characters, enjoying world-class entertainment, or simply relaxing in the Florida sunshine, each winner created memories uniquely their own.

“We were thrilled to provide our winners with an experience that offered something for everyone,” said Nick Pzybylowski, Director of Sales at Eastern Auto Parts Warehouse. “The Orlando Experience Sweepstakes was designed to reward our customers with the flexibility to enjoy Orlando their way—whether that meant thrilling attractions, family adventures, or simply spending quality time together. Seeing the excitement and appreciation from our winners made this event truly special.”

Throughout the week, attendees enjoyed premium accommodations, exclusive hospitality events, and opportunities to connect with fellow industry professionals while creating lasting memories with family and friends. The combination of world-famous attractions, exceptional entertainment, and the camaraderie of the aftermarket community made for an experience that will not soon be forgotten.

“What a blast! Once again, Auto Value thought of everything. What we appreciated most was their focus on families and the importance of those values within our industry. From the meals and entertainment to the flights and accommodations, every detail was planned with families in mind. It was truly a memorable experience that we’ll always look back on with a smile. We’re incredibly grateful to Auto Value, and everyone who helped make this trip possible,” said Josh Clayton, owner of H&H Mobil in East Lansing, Michigan, a Certified Service Center customer with Auto-Wares Group of Companies.

The Orlando Experience Sweepstakes marked the culmination of another successful promotional campaign which rewarded customers for their continued support and participation through the MyPlace4Parts B2B ecommerce platform. Customers earned entries with qualifying purchases, along with bonus opportunities through platform engagement throughout the promotion period.

“Events like the Orlando Experience Sweepstakes are a meaningful way to show appreciation for the customers who support our industry every day,” said Christen Vasquez, Events and Hospitality Manager at the Aftermarket Auto Parts Alliance, Inc. “Creating memorable experiences that bring people together is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do. It was wonderful to see our winners and their families enjoy everything Orlando has to offer while building connections and making memories that will last long after the trip ends.”

As another successful sweepstakes comes to a close, one thing is certain: the 2026 Orlando Experience Sweepstakes delivered excitement, adventure, and unforgettable experiences for everyone involved. The trip embodied the spirit of appreciation that continues to drive the aftermarket industry forward.
