How to Play Mega Millions: Everything You Need to Know

Mega Millions is played across 45 states, Washington D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands. It has produced some of the largest single-ticket jackpots in human history.

The Number Matrix Mega Millions tickets cost $2 per play. To enter a drawing: * Pick **five white numbers** from 1 to 70 * Pick **one gold Mega Ball number** from 1 to 25

Megaplier Feature Players may add the **Megaplier** option for an additional $1 per play. Before each Mega Millions draw, a separate multiplier ball is drawn (2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x). Non-jackpot prizes are multiplied by that drawn number. Matching 5 white balls with Megaplier turns a $1 million second prize into up to $5 million!

Drawing Days and Times Mega Millions draws occur twice weekly: * **Tuesday nights** at 11:00 PM Eastern Time (ET) * **Friday nights** at 11:00 PM Eastern Time (ET)

Drawings take place at the WSB-TV studios in Atlanta, Georgia.
