The classic game that creates the most millionaires.
What is Saturday Lotto?
Saturday Lotto, also known as TattsLotto in some states, is Australia's oldest and most traditional lottery game. It is famous for offering the best odds of winning Division 1 among all the major national weekly games.
How to Play
The rules are simple: Choose 6 numbers from a pool of 1 to 45. During the draw, 6 winning numbers and 2 supplementary numbers are selected. Match all 6 main numbers to win the Division 1 prize.
Superdraws & Megadraws
Several times a year, Saturday Lotto holds "Superdraws" with a guaranteed Division 1 prize pool of $20 million or more. The "Megadraw" held around New Year is even bigger, often reaching $30 million or $40 million.

Saturday Lotto draws take place every Saturday night at 8:30 PM AEST/AEDT.
