The upcoming Mega Millions drawing on Friday (March 8, 2024) night boasts a staggering jackpot of $650 million, potentially making it the seventh largest prize in Mega Millions history. The cash value of the jackpot is estimated at $314.4 million. In the previous drawing, there were no winners for matching all five white balls, but there were 28 third-tier winning tickets, with 25 worth $10,000 and three worth $20,000 with the Megaplier option.
The next Mega Millions drawing is scheduled for Friday, March 8, 2024. The jackpot has remained elusive since December 8, 2023, when a $394 million jackpot was split between two tickets purchased at the same Chevron gas station in Encino, California. Since then, there have been 22 consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner.
The odds of winning the Mega Millions jackpot are 1 in 302,575,350. Players who match five numbers have a 1-in-12,607,306 chance of winning at least $1 million, while the odds of winning a third prize of $10,000 or more are 931,001-to-1. The starting jackpots and the rate at which they increase are based on game sales and interest rates, with no fixed minimum amount.
To increase their winnings, players can choose the Megaplier option for an additional $1, which can multiply non-grand prize winnings by two, three, four, or five times. Mega Millions drawings are held twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays, in 45 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands, with the results broadcast live at 10:12 p.m. CT.
