Megabucks — Wisconsin

Megabucks is drawn Wed & Sat at 9:00 PM CDT. Times are local to Wisconsin. Ticket sales cut off shortly before each drawing — often 10–60 minutes for state games — so buy early on draw days. Winning numbers appear on this page within minutes of the draw.

Powerball is drawn Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 PM ET and Mega Millions Tuesday and Friday at 11:00 PM ET — the same in every state. Wisconsin's own draw games run on local time: daily numbers games (Pick 3/Pick 4-style) typically draw at midday and again in the evening, and lotto-style games draw at night. Each game's page on Lottery Atlas shows its exact draw time and days — see the game list on this page, or the full schedule guide at what time are lottery drawings.

You must be at least 18 years old to purchase a lottery ticket in Wisconsin. Retailers check ID at the point of sale, and tickets sold to minors are void.

No. Wisconsin requires that winners' names (and often city of residence) be released as public record. Some winners reduce exposure by claiming through a trust or LLC where state law permits — talk to a lottery attorney before claiming.

Wisconsin withholds 7.65% in state tax withholding (in addition to 24% federal withholding on prizes over $5,000). Your final tax liability depends on your total income for the year — most jackpot winners land in the top federal bracket of 37%, so the effective combined rate is typically 37–45% after April 15. Consult a tax professional before cashing a large prize.

You have 180 days from the draw date to claim a winning ticket in Wisconsin. After that, the prize is forfeited and (in most states) returned to the lottery's beneficiary fund. If you're choosing the cash option on a jackpot, the deadline to elect cash is usually 60 days from the claim date.

Lottery proceeds in Wisconsin primarily fund Wisconsin property tax relief. After paying prizes and operating costs, the remaining revenue is transferred to the state's beneficiary account.
