Mega Millions Jackpot Soars to $1 Billion After No Winner on November 14, 2025

Background

The Mega Millions is one of the most popular lottery games in the United States, known for its large jackpots. Drawings are held every Tuesday and Friday, offering participants the chance to win millions of dollars. The current jackpot surge is a result of consecutive drawings without a grand prize winner, building excitement and anticipation among players.

How to Play

To play Mega Millions, participants must select six numbers: five numbers between 1 and 70 for the white balls and one number between 1 and 24 for the golden Mega Ball. Tickets can be purchased at various locations, including gas stations, supermarkets, and convenience stores. A "Quick Pick" option is also available, allowing a computer to randomly select the numbers.

Prize Tiers

While matching all six numbers is required to win the jackpot, there are several other prize tiers for matching fewer numbers. For example, matching five numbers without the Mega Ball can win a prize of $2 million to $10 million. Even matching just the Mega Ball can win a smaller prize.

Historical Context

The $1 billion jackpot ranks among the top Mega Millions jackpots of all time. The largest Mega Millions jackpot was $1.58 billion, won on August 8, 2023. These significant jackpots draw national attention and contribute to the game's popularity.

The winning numbers were 1, 8, 11, 12, and 57, with a Mega Ball of 7.

The next drawing will be held on Tuesday, November 18, 2025.

A Mega Millions ticket costs $5.
