One lucky Arkansas lottery player could win big with Saturday night’s LOTTO drawing.

The LOTTO jackpot has risen to $1.282 million, extending its run as the game’s fourth-highest jackpot since its launch in 2022. Played and won only in Arkansas, LOTTO was designed to give in-state players another way to win big prizes.

This week, six players won prizes of $500 or more in the April 22 drawing, including three who won $1,500 each. More than 2,500 winning tickets were sold for that night’s drawing.

LOTTO drawings occur every Wednesday and Saturday at 9 p.m. Tickets cost $2 per play, and ticket sales cut off at 8:59 p.m. on draw days.

Six numbers between 1 and 40 and a Bonus Number are drawn. A LOTTO player must match the first six numbers drawn in any order to win the jackpot. Players who match three or more numbers, with or without the Bonus Number, can win prizes up to $25,000.

LOTTO tickets are available for purchase in person at licensed Arkansas Scholarship Lottery (ASL) retailers or through retailer apps from ASL’s Play on the Go partners.
