Door prize

At a party or gathering, a door prize may be awarded to one or more persons attending, via a raffle or drawing. Prizes can be small things such as pens, bookmarks, and buttons or they can be larger, more expensive items like gift baskets, cash, tickets to concerts, bicycles, or furniture items.

The term can also refer to a cyclist colliding with the open door of a parked car; see door zone.
