The pot has been growing steadily since November, making dreams come true for the fortunate winner.
Supporting California Public Schools
Beyond creating millionaires, the Super Lotto Plus game also benefits California’s education system. This draw alone contributed an estimated $88.4 million to support public schools. Each $1 ticket sale allocates about 40 cents to education initiatives.
A Chance to Win Big
The Super Lotto Plus game, exclusive to California, offers players better odds compared to nationwide lotteries like Mega Millions. While the odds of hitting the Super Lotto Plus jackpot stand at 1 in 41,416,353, the Mega Millions jackpot poses a much tougher chance of 1 in 302.6 million.
Claim Your Prize
Winners have 180 days from the draw date to claim their life-changing prizes. Claim forms are available on the California Lottery website, at nine Lottery offices across the state, or at any of the over 23,000 California Lottery retail partners.
A Game Only for California
The Super Lotto Plus drawings occur twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 7:57 p.m. This in-state game offers unique opportunities, with fewer players in the mix and improved odds of winning.
Join the Fun!
For all those aspiring to strike it rich, the Super Lotto Plus beckons. Who knows when luck will smile upon you next? Play the game that stays local and supports California’s educational system while offering a chance to become the next millionaire!
