Friday night’s Lotto Max draw came and went without a jackpot winner, which means Tuesday’s prize pool just got a whole lot bigger.
The $50 million jackpot from the March 20, 2026 draw will now roll over to an estimated $55 million for the next draw on Tuesday, March 25.
But here’s the twist that many players missed: while nobody matched all seven numbers for the top prize, one lucky Canadian did walk away with $1 million from one of the two Maxmillions draws.
And if you’re planning to keep playing, you’ll want to act before April 11 when ticket prices jump from $5 to $6.

Ticket Price Increase Coming April 11
Players should be aware that Lotto Max ticket prices are set to increase in less than three weeks.
Effective April 11, 2026, Lotto Max tickets will cost $6 instead of the current $5.
The price change will allow for larger jackpots and more frequent Maxmillions prizes, according to lottery officials.
However, it also means players will need to budget an extra dollar per play.
For frequent players, this represents a 20% increase in the cost of playing.
Those who typically buy multiple tickets per draw may want to stock up on advance plays before the price change takes effect.
