Tonight’s drawing will take place at 11 p.m.
Tickets can be purchased until 10:45 p.m. at Virginia Lottery retailers, online or using the Virginia Lottery’s app.
In Tuesday’s drawing, more than 78,000 tickets bought in Virginia won prizes, including one ticket that won $1 million and one ticket that won $10,000.
Since the Mega Millions game began in 2002, nine jackpots have been won in Virginia. The largest was a $239 million jackpot won in 2004 by a Winchester man.
The Virginia Lottery advises that before doing anything else, a winner should immediately sign the back of the ticket to establish ownership. When the person is ready to claim a prize, he or she should contact the Virginia Lottery.
All Virginia Lottery profits go to K-12 education in Virginia. In Fiscal Year 2022, the lottery raised more than $779 million for K-12 education, making up approximately 10 percent of Virginia’s total K-12 school budget.
Mega Millions drawings are held Tuesday and Friday nights at 11 p.m. Drawings are streamed live at www.valottery.com.
