Florida lands Mega Millions’ $800M jackpot, the year’s biggest prize

A Florida Mega Millions ticket won the $800 million jackpot—the largest prize in 2026—with numbers 34, 48, 49, 59, 70 and Mega Ball 12. Players may take the one-time cash option of $344.2 million or the $800 million annuity; two other tickets matched all five white balls for the second prize. It’s the tenth largest Mega Millions prize in history, Florida’s first grand-prize win since August 2023, and part of a string of recent top prizes across the country.
