Mega Millions jackpot: When is the next drawing held and where can you buy tickets?

The Mega Millions jackpot keeps growing, but where can you get a ticket before the next draw?

Friday 22 March, 2024 winning Mega Millions numbers

The Mega Millions jackpot is slowly growing after a lucky winner in Illinois won the jackpot at the beginning of September. The prize money is currently at $169 million for Tuesday’s draw.

The draw is held at 11 p.m. ET, and if won, it would represent the fifth-largest gaming prize and the largest since the $1.3 billion prize was won in Maine in January 2023. The largest ever prize won was a staggering $1.537 billion paid out in South Carolina back in October 2018. As the jackpot grows, so do ticket sales leading one’s already small chances of winning to chances of winning decrease even further.
