Mega Millions Jackpot Soars to Over $500 Million for Tuesday Drawing

 

AUSTIN – Lottery officials estimate Tuesday's Mega Millions jackpot at $565 million — or more than $293 million if delivered in cash — after there were no winners holding a ticket that matched all six numbers in the last drawing held on Friday.

Lottery officials say there have been 11 winning jackpots of $500 million or more since Mega Millions began in 2002. The record Mega Millions jackpot is more than $1.5 billion, won in 2018, and a jackpot surpassing $1.3 billion was won in Illinois in July.

The Mega Millions lottery jackpot drawing will be held at 10 p.m. Tuesday.
