Lotto Max Sets Record $85 Million Jackpot in Canada

Canada's largest lottery jackpot has climbed to a record $85 million for the October 13, 2026, Lotto Max draw after no ticket matched all seven winning numbers in the previous drawing. The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) confirmed the prize increase, with the jackpot potentially reaching $90 million if Tuesday's draw produces no winner.

The jackpot stood at $80 million for the October 9 drawing, according to reports published by CP24 and CityNews Kitchener. The winning numbers reported by CP24 were 6, 10, 19, 25, 29 and 39, with 50 completing the seven-number combination. CP24 listed 36 as the bonus number, while CityNews Kitchener reported 30, a discrepancy between the two reports.

Beyond the main jackpot, the October 13 draw included 16 Maxmillions prizes valued at $1 million each and 85 Maxplus prizes worth $100,000 each, according to OLG information cited by CP24. These additional prizes bring the total number of separately listed prize opportunities beyond the main jackpot to 101.

The $85 million jackpot surpasses Canada's previous lottery prize record of $80 million, which was claimed in December 2025. CityNews Kitchener reported that two friends in London, Ontario, shared that earlier prize.

The potential increase to $90 million follows changes announced in April 2026, when Lotto Max raised its maximum jackpot from the previous limit. CityNews Kitchener reported that the ticket price also increased from $5 to $6 as part of the changes. The new maximum has not yet been reached by a jackpot that remained unclaimed, according to the reports.

If no ticket matches all seven numbers in the October 13 drawing, the jackpot will rise from $85 million to $90 million for a subsequent draw. The $90 million limit represents the new ceiling established under the changes announced in April.
