If you’re searching for Mega Millions results tonight, here’s everything you need — the latest winning numbers, how big the jackpot is, whether anyone won, and when the next drawing takes place.
Latest Mega Millions Winning Numbers
The most recent Mega Millions drawing was held on Tuesday, September 15, 2026. The winning numbers were:
27 – 36 – 43 – 57 – 58 | Mega Ball: 16
- Jackpot (Annuity): $227 Million
- Jackpot (Cash Value): $96.3 Million
- Jackpot Winner: None — nobody matched all five numbers plus the Mega Ball
Since there was no jackpot winner, the prize rolls over and grows for the next drawing.
Did Anyone Win a Prize?
While no one hit the full jackpot, plenty of players still won smaller prizes by matching some of the numbers. Mega Millions has nine total prize tiers, so you can win as little as $2 just by matching the Mega Ball alone, all the way up to the multi-million-dollar Match 5 prize (for players who get all five white balls but miss the Mega Ball).
If you have a ticket from the September 15 drawing, check it carefully — you don’t need all six numbers to walk away with a prize.
Next Mega Millions Drawing
Mark your calendar: the next Mega Millions drawing is on Friday, September 18, 2026, with the jackpot climbing to an estimated $244 Million.
Mega Millions drawings happen twice a week:
- Tuesdays at 11:00 PM ET
- Fridays at 11:00 PM ET
Ticket sales typically close about 15–30 minutes before the drawing, depending on your state, so it’s best to buy early.
How to Play Mega Millions
- Pick five numbers from 1 to 70 (the white balls).
- Pick one Mega Ball number from 1 to 24.
- Optionally, add the Megaplier for an extra $1 to multiply non-jackpot winnings by 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, or even 10x.
- A single ticket costs $5.
You can play in person at authorized retailers in most participating states, or online in states that allow digital lottery courier services.
Mega Millions Odds
Winning the Mega Millions jackpot isn’t easy — the odds are about 1 in 290,472,336. But smaller prizes are far more achievable:
- Matching just the Mega Ball: roughly 1 in 24
- Matching the Mega Ball plus one white ball: much better odds than the jackpot
Even though the odds of hitting it big are long, the size of the growing jackpot is what keeps millions of players checking results every drawing night.
