Big Wins and Record Jackpots in the US
The first Mega Millions drawing took place on May 17, 2002, and immediately produced a grand prize winner. A ticket in Illinois won a $28 million jackpot. Just one week later, there was a second jackpot winner, totaling two jackpot winners within the first three drawings.
Key highlights:
Since 2002, 234 individual tickets have won 208 progressive jackpots, with 21 jackpots shared between two or more winning tickets. Mega Millions has awarded 27 jackpots exceeding $300 million, including a record-setting $1.537 billion win in South Carolina on October 23, 2018. The largest single-ticket jackpot in Mega Millions history was $1.537 billion; this record stood for over four years until broken by the Powerball jackpot on November 7, 2022. Other
significant single-ticket wins include: $1.348 billion in Maine on January 13, 2023, $1.337 billion in Illinois on July 29, 2022, $1.05 billion in Michigan on January 22, 2021, $543 million in California on July 24, 2018, $536 million in Indiana on July 8, 2016, $533 million in New Jersey on March 30, 2018
In a remarkable start to 2023, the Mega Millions jackpot was won three more times in January. A Massachusetts ticket holder won $31 million ($16.5 million cash) on Tuesday night, matching all six numbers drawn. Additionally, a player from Bay State won the top prize on January 24, following a win in New York on January 17.
This marks the first time in Mega Millions' nearly 21-year history that the jackpot has been won four times within a single month, highlighting the lotto's promise of randomness and the potential to win the jackpot at any moment and level.
How to participate in the Mega Millions jackpot
Allow our computer system to randomly choose your Mega Millions® numbers! The system will pick five random numbers between 1 and 70 (White Ball) and one random number between 1 and 25 (Mega Ball).
The second prize goes up to $5 million!
Mega Millions® is the sole jackpot game offering a second prize of up to $5 million if the player opts for an additional Megaplier® (costing $1 extra in most states). This prize tier was established when the game matrix was altered on October 19, 2013. Since then, 1,387 Match 5 winning tickets worth $1 million or more have been sold in nearly every jurisdiction where the game is available.
Security
The Mega Millions® lottery is held under stringent security procedures.
Drawings take place every Tuesday and Friday at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time at the WSB-TV studios in Atlanta, Georgia. Many factors contribute to the success of the Millionaire Lottery.

All lottery equipment is securely maintained and utilized solely by lottery officials.
For a drawing that lasts less than 60 seconds, the entire process takes approximately three hours.
