Louisiana (LA) Lotto Results, Winning Numbers & Game Details

Playing Louisiana Lotto is straightforward. You'll pick 6 numbers from 1 to 49. Can't decide? Go with Quick Pick and let the terminal choose random numbers for you. Drawings happen Wednesday and Saturday at 9:59 PM CT, and you win by matching numbers to the drawn results. The more you match, the bigger your prize. Match all 6, and you've hit the jackpot.

Visit any authorized Louisiana Lottery retailer, most convenience stores, gas stations, and grocery stores sell tickets. Tell the clerk you want Lotto, or use a self-service terminal if available. You can pick your own numbers or ask for Quick Pick. Tickets cost $1.00 per play. Make sure to buy before the sales cutoff, which is 9:30 PM CT on drawing days. Always check your ticket before leaving the store.

Louisiana doesn't currently allow online lottery purchases. You'll need to visit an authorized retailer in person to buy Lotto tickets. This keeps all purchases secure and ensures proper age verification. Some players use courier services from other states, but you must be physically present in that state to purchase. For now, buying at retail locations remains the only legal option for Louisiana residents.

A standard Louisiana Lotto ticket costs $1.00 per play. Want more chances? Buy multiple plays on one ticket. Most retailers accept cash and debit cards. The minimum purchase is one play.

Lotto drawings happen Wednesday and Saturday at 9:59 PM CT. That gives you 2 chances to win each week. Ticket sales close at 9:30 PM CT on drawing nights. If you buy a multi-draw ticket, it'll play the same numbers for consecutive drawings. You can purchase tickets for up to multiple future drawings at once. This is great if you've got lucky numbers you play consistently.

The odds of hitting the Louisiana Lotto jackpot are 1:13,983,816. That's tough, sure, but you've got 5 ways to win. Matching 2 numbers offers much better odds at 1:7.6.

No Multiplier is an optional add-on that costs an extra $1.00 per play. It multiplies your non-jackpot winnings by 2x to 10x. The multiplier number is drawn separately right after the main drawing. Here's the catch: it doesn't multiply the jackpot. But for lower prize tiers, No Multiplier can significantly boost your winnings, potentially multiplying them by up to 10x. That's a significant boost. You decide whether to add No Multiplier when buying your ticket. Can't add it later.

Lotto is exclusive to Louisiana. You'll need to be physically present in Louisiana to buy tickets, either at a retail location or through a licensed courier service while you're in-state.

This is a state-specific game with its own unique rules and prize structure. Other states have similar games but different names and formats. Browse all Louisiana lottery games to see what's available.
