The short version

Delaware sells Mega Millions on the standard terms: the national prize chart is what you are paid, and both $1 add-ons are available. At the jackpot standing after the November 6, 2026 draw, one $5 ticket bought in Delaware is worth $1.81 — 36 cents on the dollar, and Delaware withholds nothing from it. A single winner of the $529 million jackpot who takes the cash keeps about $141.3 million in Delaware after the whole federal bill (every state). Mega Millions after taxes in Delaware: lump sum vs annuity.

What is different in Delaware

Ticket price
$5 a line
Every $5 Mega Millions ticket has carried a built-in multiplier since April 2025; there is no separate add-on to buy.
Prize structure
Fixed, as the chart
The published amounts are what you are paid — Delaware does not adjust them for sales.
State withholding
None
Withholds nothing; prizes are still taxable when you file. Federal withholding of 24% applies on top, everywhere.
Minimum age
18
Delaware Lottery's own rule. Five jurisdictions set it higher: four at 21 and one at 19.

What a Delaware ticket is worth right now

The advertised jackpot is $529 million. The cash value is about $224 million, because the headline is a 30-year annuity and nobody takes it. At that jackpot our sales model puts the chance of having to share a win at enough that a winning ticket is worth 89% of the prize on average rather than all of it. Delaware withholds nothing, so only the federal 24% comes off. What a Delaware winner keeps after tax, beside every other state.

The withholding only comes off the jackpot term here, not off the whole figure. Nearly all of a ticket's non-jackpot value sits in the $4.00 and $7.00 tiers, which no state withholds on; taxing those too would push the number down in a way that happens to flatter our own conclusion, so we do not. The draw-by-draw chart behind this is on the Mega Millions page.

Hot and cold over the whole run

The drawing is national, so the frequencies are too — there is no Delaware hot number, only a Mega Millions one. Over the 942 draws since the game began drawing five numbers from 1 to 70, 10 has come up most (88 times against 67 expected) and 69 has waited longest, 59 draws.

10 has come up most often, 88 times. Each number averages about 67 over 942 draws, and whichever number happens to lead normally finishes around 19 ahead. 10 is 21 ahead, so this is an ordinary spread rather than a streak. 65 has come up least, 53 times.

Delaware's own draw games

Mega Millions is the same everywhere. These are not — Delaware Lottery runs them, and we hold 59,478 of their draws, the oldest from January 24, 1978.

Delaware Mega Millions questions

Can you buy Power Play in Delaware?
Yes. It costs $1 a play on top of the $2 ticket and multiplies every prize below the jackpot by 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 — the 10 only when the advertised jackpot is $150 million or less. We price that extra dollar at about 46 cents at a large jackpot and 50 cents when the 10× ball is in the drum.
Is Double Play available in Delaware?
Yes. For $1 your numbers go into a second drawing straight after the main one, with its own prize table topping out at $10 million. Every prize in it is fixed and none of them rolls, which makes it the one multi-state bet whose expected value is exact: about 53 cents per dollar. 30 of the 48 lotteries sell it.
How much tax does Delaware take from a Mega Millions win?
Delaware withholds nothing — withholds nothing; prizes are still taxable when you file. The 24% federal withholding still applies, and your federal bill is settled at filing. The calculator does the arithmetic.
Are Mega Millions prizes in Delaware the same as the national prize chart?
Yes. Every prize below the jackpot is a set cash amount in Delaware, exactly as the national chart prints it. Only California pays pari-mutuel instead.
How old do you have to be to play Mega Millions in Delaware?
18. Delaware Lottery sets it, and a winning ticket has to be claimed in the jurisdiction where it was bought.
Where were the Delaware Mega Millions numbers drawn?
In Tallahassee, Florida, like every Mega Millions drawing — one drawing serves all 47 jurisdictions. The numbers on this page are the same numbers as everywhere else; what the page adds is what they are worth to a Delaware ticket. The national analysis is here.
