MEGA MILLIONS® jackpot reaches $376 million

Dover, DE — With no winning tickets sold for the January 14 drawing, the jackpot for this Friday’s MEGA MILLIONS® drawing has climbed to $376 million. The last MEGA MILLIONS® jackpot was hit on October 22, 2021 in Arizona.

“It’s always exciting when a jackpot gets this high, and ticket sales often increase as a result,” said Vernon Kirk, Director of the Delaware Lottery. “While we wish all Delaware Lottery players the best of luck, we also want to remind everyone to play responsibly.”

MEGA MILLIONS® drawings are held on Wednesday and Friday nights at 11:00PM EST. Tickets for Friday’s drawing are on sale until 9:45 PM EST.
