Latest Mega Millions result: the drawing on Tuesday, July 7, 2026. LotteryCorner is not a lottery — only the lottery that sold a ticket can validate it, and only the official result is final.

Last updated July 7, 2026

What this drawing looked like
  • Sum of the numbers167The five drawn numbers add up to 167. For this game a draw can total anywhere from 15 to 340, with the middle of that range at about 178.
  • Spread6163 minus 2 — how far apart the highest and lowest drawn numbers were.
  • Odd and even3 odd · 2 evenA count of the numbers actually drawn. It says nothing about what the next drawing will do.
  • Low and high half3 low · 2 highSplit at 35: numbers 1–35 count as low, 36–70 as high.
  • Where they landed1–10: 1 · 31–40: 3 · 61–70: 1The drawn numbers fell in 3 of the 7 blocks of ten.
  • Consecutive numbers35–36Consecutive numbers turn up regularly. They are a property of this drawing, not a pattern that continues.
  • Repeated from the previous drawingNoneNumbers that appeared in the drawing before this one. Each drawing is independent, so a repeat neither raises nor lowers the chance of anything.
  • Mega Ball12The Mega Ball is drawn from its own separate pool, so it can repeat a main number without that meaning anything.

These describe the drawing that happened. Each drawing is independent, so nothing here — a sum, a repeat, a run of consecutive numbers, or a number that has not appeared for a while — changes what any future drawing will do. There is no such thing as an overdue number.

The advertised jackpot rose from $20,000,000 on 2026-04-03 to $576,000,000 over 28 drawings. That is $556,000,000 across the run.

Counted from the 131 advertised Mega Millions jackpot figures held for this page, from 2025-04-08 to 2026-07-07. A run is the drawings between one top-prize win and the next, and growth is the difference between advertised amounts — it describes what has already been advertised and does not forecast the next figure, which the operator sets from ticket sales.

A long run does not make a win more likely. Every drawing is independent, and the chance of matching everything is the same at every jackpot size.

Counted from the published number matrix: C(70,5) = 12,103,014 ways to choose the main numbers, multiplied by 24 possible Mega Ball values, giving 290,472,336 equally likely tickets on a fair independent drawing.

These prize amounts are preview data

They are sample figures used for layout testing, not the operator's published prize table, and no ticket is worth them. The operator's own published rules are the authority on what any match pays.

The operator's prize matrix is not captured in this build. The odds below are counted from the published number matrix, which is verified; prize amounts are a separate published table. Check https://floridalottery.com/games/draw-games/mega-millions for the current prize levels. Prizes are also pari-mutuel in some jurisdictions, so a published amount can differ from what a ticket actually pays there.

Where Mega Millions differs by jurisdiction (4)
  • Sold only in U.S. selling jurisdictions

    Mega Millions is officially sold only in U.S. selling jurisdictions. There is no official sale outside the United States, and no site can legally sell you an official Mega Millions ticket overseas.

  • The multiplier belongs to the ticket, not to the drawing

    Because the multiplier is assigned to each play at purchase, it is printed on the ticket. Checking a non-jackpot win means reading the multiplier from your own ticket — there is no drawing-level multiplier to look up.

  • California pari-mutuel exception

    California awards its Mega Millions lower-tier prizes on a pari-mutuel basis rather than at the fixed amounts used elsewhere, so a California prize for the same match can differ from another state's.

  • Claims and taxes are local

    A Mega Millions prize is claimed from the lottery that sold the ticket, under that jurisdiction's own claim process, deadlines and tax withholding.

Rule changes

  • Five numbers 1–70 plus a Mega Ball 1–24, $5 a play from 2025-04-08

    Mega Millions changed to its current format in April 2025: five numbers from 1 through 70 and one Mega Ball from 1 through 24, at $5 per play, with a multiplier assigned to every ticket.

  • Before April 2025 — a different matrix and a separately bought Megaplier up to 2025-04-07

    Drawings before April 8, 2025 used a different Mega Ball range and a separately purchased Megaplier rather than a built-in multiplier. Statistics that mix the two eras are not comparable, and the earlier terms are not verified from a primary source in this build.

The operator’s published rules are the authority on all of this. Where a figure is not captured here, it says so rather than showing a number.

Where these numbers come from, and what this page will not tell you

Where Mega Millions is played

Mega Millions results, tools and guides on this page are available to anyone, anywhere — but the game itself is sold only in U.S. selling jurisdictions. If someone contacts you claiming you have won a Mega Millions prize you did not buy a ticket for, it is a scam; no lottery asks a winner for a payment to release a prize.

No lottery contacts a winner to ask for a payment, a fee or bank details before releasing a prize, and no lottery awards a prize to someone who never bought a ticket. A message claiming otherwise is a scam, whatever it looks like.

This page sells no tickets and shows no purchase link: where a ticket can legally be bought depends on your jurisdiction, and this hub has no jurisdiction context to resolve it from.

The official result is the only final one

LotteryCorner publishes results from a production results feed. It is not a lottery and it cannot validate a ticket: only the lottery that sold the ticket can do that, and only the official result is final. Before acting on anything here — and always before travelling to claim — check the result with that lottery.

The drawing above was cross-checked across the 4 jurisdiction records this build holds, and they agree.

Claims and taxes are local

Mega Millions is one game with one drawing, but every prize is claimed from the lottery that sold the ticket, under its own deadlines, claim routes and tax withholding. A retailer can pay small prizes in most jurisdictions; larger ones go to the lottery itself. Nothing on this page is tax advice.

Nothing here predicts a drawing

Every analysis on this page describes drawings that have already happened. Each drawing is independent, so no pattern, gap, streak or generated line changes what the next one will do. There is no such thing as an overdue number, and no system can predict winning numbers.

Matching everything is 1 in 290,472,336.

Playing responsibly

Lottery games are for adults — 18 or older in most jurisdictions, and older in some. Play with money you can afford to lose, and never to recover a loss. If it stops feeling like a game, help is available: the National Problem Gambling Helpline is 1-800-522-4700, free and confidential, 24 hours a day.

Common questions

When is the Mega Millions drawing?

Tuesday and Friday at 11:00 p.m. ET. Ticket sales close 10:00 p.m. ET.

All times on this page are Eastern Time, which is the time the drawing is held in.

How do I play Mega Millions?

You pick 5 numbers from 1 to 70, and one Mega Ball from 1 to 24. The Mega Ball comes from its own separate pool, so it can repeat one of your main numbers.

A play costs $5 per play.

What are the odds of winning the Mega Millions jackpot?

Matching everything is 1 in 290,472,336. That figure is counted from the published number matrix, not quoted from anywhere.

The odds are identical on every ticket and every drawing. They do not move with the jackpot, with how long it has rolled, or with which numbers you choose.

How much is a smaller match worth?

Not shown on this page. The operator's prize matrix is not captured in this build. The odds below are counted from the published number matrix, which is verified; prize amounts are a separate published table. Check https://floridalottery.com/games/draw-games/mega-millions for the current prize levels.

The odds of every possible match ARE shown, in full, in the odds table above.

How does Multiplier work?

Every Mega Millions play is assigned a random 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X or 10X multiplier when it is bought, and it is applied automatically to every non-jackpot win. It is not separately purchased, it cannot be declined, and it is not a value drawn at the drawing — so no multiplier appears beside the winning numbers. Two tickets matching the same numbers can win different amounts.

What is the cash value, and why is it not shown?

The advertised jackpot is paid as an annuity over many years. A winner may usually take a smaller lump sum instead, called the cash value.

The production results feed carries the advertised annuity only. A cash value is published separately by the game operator and is never derived here from the annuity figure.

How do I claim a prize?

From the lottery that sold the ticket, under its own claim process, deadlines and tax withholding. Mega Millions is one game with one drawing, but the claim is always local.

LotteryCorner is not a lottery and cannot validate a ticket. Nothing on this page is tax advice.

Can any of these tools tell me which numbers are coming next?

No. Every analysis on this page describes drawings that have already happened. Each drawing is independent, so no pattern, gap, streak or generated line changes what the next one will do.

There is no such thing as an overdue number, and no system can predict winning numbers. The tools here explain, organise and compare — nothing more.
