LOTTO Jackpot Rises to Record $3.832 Million; Natural State Jackpot Soars to $470,000

LITTLE ROCK, Ark.

In-state draw game jackpots continue to soar to new heights for their mid-week drawings.

The LOTTO jackpot for Wednesday night soars to $3.832 million, extending its record as the draw game’s highest-ever jackpot. Its previous highest jackpot of $2.338 million was claimed in May 2023.

LOTTO is a draw game that is played and won only in Arkansas. It is designed to give Arkansas players a chance to win bigger prizes.

Drawings occur every Wednesday and Saturday at 9 p.m. Six numbers between 1 and 40 plus a Bonus Number are drawn. A player must match the first six numbers drawn in any order to win the jackpot. Alternate prizes up to $25,000 are available for players who match three or more winning numbers, with or without the Bonus Number.

LOTTO tickets cost $2 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 8:59 p.m. the night of the drawing. 

The Natural State Jackpot is $470,000 for tonight’s drawing. The game transitioned to daily drawings in April 2024 to encourage higher, faster-growing jackpots and has since seen several jackpots rise above $300,000.

The Natural State Jackpot starts at $50,000, increasing by $5,000 with each draw. Once the jackpot reaches $100,000, it increases by $10,000 with every draw until it is won.

Natural State Jackpot drawings occur at 8 p.m. Tickets cost $1 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 7:59 p.m.
