Mega Millions Jackpot Reaches $413 Million for Tuesday
With Powerball also rolling, the two jackpots together top $1 billion this week.
The Mega Millions jackpot is an estimated $413 million for the drawing on Tuesday, Oct. 20, 2026. The cash option is an estimated $170.3 million before taxes.
Friday's drawing on Oct. 16 produced no jackpot winner. The numbers were 2, 15, 31, 41 and 68, with Mega Ball 11.
Two big jackpots at once
With the Powerball jackpot also rolling, the two games together are offering more than $1 billion in jackpots this week, as the North Carolina Education Lottery noted on Monday.
The last Mega Millions jackpot
The most recent Mega Millions jackpot was won in Florida in the July 28 drawing. That ticket was sold at a Wawa in Bradenton, and the prize has since been claimed.
What this means for players
Each Mega Millions play costs $5 and includes a built-in multiplier of 2X to 10X on every prize except the jackpot. The jackpot odds stay the same however large it grows: one in 290,472,336. Drawings are Tuesday and Friday at 11 p.m. Eastern.
