Two Bets Split R$336 Million Mega‑Sena 30th‑Anniversary Prize

The commemorative, non‑accumulable draw requires winners to present original tickets at the issuing loteria for Caixa to process payouts.

Overview

  • The Mega‑Sena 30th‑anniversary special, which was drawn on Sunday, May 24, distributed R$336,340,043.67 and two winning bets will each receive R$168,170,026.83.
  • One winning bet was a 100‑share bolão sold at Lotérica Aldeota in Fortaleza that cost R$313,956 for a 20‑number entry and included owner Alessandro Montenegro among the cotistas.
  • The other winner was a single R$6 ticket sold in Rio de Janeiro, which alone is entitled to the same R$168.17 million payout.
  • To claim large prizes winners must collect the original physical ticket at the issuing loteria and present it at a Caixa agency, which has up to 72 hours to credit the funds after processing.
  • The special rules prevented accumulation so Caixa also paid 590 quina prizes of R$13,890.02 and 37,565 quadra prizes of R$311.65, and reporting varies on whether two or three bolão cotistas live abroad.
