Learn more about the changes to the Mega Millions game implemented on April 5.
Mega Millions® is an exciting big-jackpot game that has a starting jackpot of $50 million and then grows even larger from there. The jackpot keeps building each time a drawing is held but there are no jackpot (5+1) winning tickets. The longer the jackpot goes without being hit, the bigger it grows. There is no minimum jackpot increase for each roll. The estimated amount of the rolling jackpot is determined by game sales and interest rates and is published on mdlottery.com.
Drawings occur every Tuesday and Friday night at 11 p.m.
Mega Millions tickets cost $5 per play.
Mega Millions tickets come with a built-in randomly generated multiplier on every play.
Mega Millions tickets are sold in 45 states, Washington, D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
