Mega da Virada Draws Tonight With Record Prize Above R$ 1 Billion

Officials warn about fake sites, directing bettors to Caixa’s channels before the 8 p.m. Brasília cutoff.

Overview

  • The draw starts at 10 p.m. (Brasília) with live coverage on Caixa’s YouTube channel and the Loterias Caixa Facebook page, with results posted on official platforms afterward.
  • By rule the top pot does not roll over; if no six-number winners appear, the money is redistributed to the five-number tier and, if needed, to lower tiers, with funding driven by ticket sales and accumulated regular-lottery surpluses.
  • Caixa urges bettors to use only lotéricas, the Loterias Caixa website or app, or Internet Banking after reporting fake portals that fail to register wagers and can steal personal data.
  • Official bolões require a minimum of R$ 18 per syndicate and R$ 7 per share, allow 2–100 shares, and may include a service fee of up to 35% on shares.
  • Historical data show ten numbers have never been drawn (07, 08, 09, 13, 26, 28, 39, 44, 54, 60), while the number 10 is the most frequent with five appearances.
