No ticket matched all six numbers in the Tuesday, July 7, 2026 Mega Millions drawing, rolling the jackpot to an estimated $604 million - about $266.3 million cash - for the Friday, July 10 draw.
The jackpot right now
The Mega Millions jackpot has climbed to an estimated $604 million after no ticket matched all six numbers in the Tuesday, July 7, 2026 drawing. The advertised figure is the annuity jackpot, paid over three decades; the one-time cash option is smaller, estimated at about $266.3 million before taxes. The July 7 drawing itself had been worth an advertised $576 million before rolling over.
The no-winner draw
In the Tuesday, July 7, 2026 drawing the winning numbers were 2, 31, 35, 36 and 63 with Mega Ball 12. No ticket matched all six numbers, so the top prize rolled over. The next drawing was set for Friday, July 10, 2026 at 11:00 PM ET, with the estimated jackpot rising to $604 million.
How it compares
At an estimated $604 million, this ranks among the larger Mega Millions jackpots of the year, though it remains well short of the game's all-time record of $1.602 billion, set in 2023. The odds of matching all five white balls plus the Mega Ball to win the jackpot are roughly 1 in 290 million. A jackpot keeps growing with each drawing until a single ticket finally claims the top tier.
How to play
Mega Millions draws are held Tuesdays and Fridays. Players pick five main numbers from 1 to 70 and one Mega Ball from 1 to 24. You do not need to live in the United States to take part - a licensed lottery courier can buy an official ticket on your behalf for the same draw and jackpot. Always confirm the current jackpot and draw time with the official operator before playing.
