The jackpots for LOTTO and the Natural State Jackpot, two Arkansas-exclusive lottery games, rise ahead of tonight’s drawings. 

Tonight’s LOTTO jackpot is $4.593 million, nearly doubling its previous highest jackpot of $2.338 million. 

Previous LOTTO jackpot winners include a Sebastian County resident and a Pulaski County resident. 794 LOTTO winners have claimed prizes greater than $500 since the game’s launch, cumulating in a $4,691,074 payout from the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery Claim Center.

Drawings occur twice weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 9 p.m. Six numbers between 1 and 40 are drawn, plus a Bonus Number. A LOTTO 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.

Once the jackpot is won, it resets to $250,000, then increases with each drawing. If more than one jackpot-winning ticket is sold, it is split evenly among the jackpot winners.

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

The Natural State Jackpot (NSJ) is $420,000 for tonight’s draw.

Following its April 2024 game change, NSJ drawings now occur daily at 8 p.m. Tickets cost $1 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 7:59 p.m.

All draw game winners have 180 days from the draw date to claim their prize.

LOTTO and NSJ tickets are available at licensed Arkansas lottery retailers and through retailer apps from ASL’s Play on the Go partners. For more information about the Play on the Go options, visit the Where To Playpage on the ASL website.
