The gold ball jackpot is currently sitting at $60 million, with five balls left. If the gold ball is drawn, the jackpot will be handed out. If a white ball is drawn, someone will win the guaranteed $1 million prize and the jackpot will grow further.

It’s the biggest Lotto 6/49 jackpot since June 15, 2024, the OLG said.

On that date, it sat at $66 million and the prize was won by a ticket sold in Western Canada.

Lotto 6/49 will also offer the usual classic jackpot at its fixed $5 million.
