Top 10 VA Lottery Winnings Total Millions: See List

In August 2025, an anonymous winner took home the largest prize in Virginia Lottery history.

The Virginia Lottery told Patch that the record-setting jackpot of $348 million was won on a single ticket from the June 27 Mega Millions drawing.

The ticket, which had been purchased at E&C Mid Atlantic, located at 14878 Northumberland Highway in Burgess, matched all six winning numbers: 18-21-29-42-50 and the Mega Ball number 2.

Four weeks after the drawing, the winner walked into Virginia Lottery headquarters in Richmond to present winning ticket and claim their prize. The lottery allows winners of jackpots of more than $1 million to claim the prize anonymously.

Although the winner could've had the entire $348 million jackpot paid out in annual of $155.6 million before taxes.

For selling the winning ticket, E & C Mid-Atlantic received $50,000 bonus from the Virginia Lottery.
