Toronto, ON – A faster growing jackpot, new prizes and better overall odds of winning are in store for LOTTARIO, Ontario’s longest running lottery game. The first draw of the improved LOTTARIO will be held on Saturday, November 14, 2015.

LOTTARIO, sold only in Ontario, has been creating local winners in the province since 1978,” said Wendy Montgomery, OLG Vice President, Lottery Marketing & Sales. “A faster growing jackpot and more prizes means there has never been a better time to play LOTTARIO!”

  • Free Play: A new Free Play prize for matching the bonus number.

All of these improvements are offered at the same value players expect – LOTTARIO remains priced at $1 for two lines of numbers.

How to Play:

  • Choose six numbers from 1 to 45 or ask your lottery retailer for a Quick Pick.
