Mega Millions Results

Mega Millions is one of America's two largest multi-state lottery games, available in 45 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Players choose five numbers from a pool of 1 to 70 (the white balls) and one Mega Ball number from a separate pool of 1 to 25. To win the jackpot, all five main numbers plus the Mega Ball must match the drawn numbers.

Draws take place every Tuesday and Friday evening at 11:00 PM Eastern Time. The starting jackpot is $20 million and increases each time no ticket matches all six numbers. Mega Millions holds the record for the largest lottery jackpot ever won in the United States, with a $1.537 billion prize in October 2018 and a $1.602 billion prize in August 2023.

The game has nine prize tiers, ranging from the jackpot down to $2 for matching just the Mega Ball. The overall odds of winning any prize are approximately 1 in 24, while the odds of winning the jackpot are approximately 1 in 302,575,350. Players can add the Megaplier option for an additional $1 per play, which can multiply non-jackpot prizes by 2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x.

The current Mega Millions format (5/70 + 1/25) was introduced in October 2017, replacing the previous 5/75 + 1/15 format. This change created longer odds but also enabled much larger jackpots.
