Michigan Classic Lotto 47: Live Results Today, Double Play, EZmatch & Jackpot Guide

Welcome to the live winning numbers portal and official player guide for Classic Lotto 47, Michigan’s premier flagship in-state rolling jackpot game. Launched by the Michigan Bureau of State Lottery in May 2005 to succeed earlier generational favorites like Michigan Lotto (first introduced in 1984) and Win 'Fall, Classic Lotto 47 was tailored specifically for Michiganders seeking million-dollar jackpot dreams with vastly superior winning odds compared to national multi-state lotteries. Official Classic Lotto 47 drawings take place twice a week on Wednesday and Saturday nights at 7:29 PM Eastern Time (ET), with ticket sales closing at 7:08 PM ET on draw evenings.

Classic Lotto 47 features an attractive starting jackpot of $1,000,000 that rolls over and increases by at least $100,000 after every single drawing until a winning ticket matches all 6 numbers selected from a pool of 1 to 47. Because the game is played exclusively within the borders of Michigan, jackpots roll frequently, regularly soaring past $5 million, $10 million, and even $20 million! In March 2020, a fortunate player in Cadillac won a monumental $32.3 million jackpot—the largest single payout in the history of Classic Lotto 47. The odds of hitting the Lotto 47 jackpot are an outstanding 1 in 10,737,573, making it nearly 30 times easier to win than Powerball.

Standard plays cost just $1.00, solidifying Classic Lotto 47 as one of the best value-for-dollar lottery games in North America. For an additional $1.00 per play, players can add the Double Play feature, which enters the exact same 6 numbers into a second consecutive drawing held immediately after the primary draw for a chance to win a fixed top cash prize of $1,500,000! Furthermore, players can activate EZmatch for $1.00 to print 5 instant numbers and prize values directly onto their ticket receipt, giving them an instant shot to win up to $500 in instant cash right at the retail counter.

Every single dollar spent on Classic Lotto 47 supports the children and educators of Michigan through direct contributions to the School Aid Fund. Because Classic Lotto 47 is an exclusive Michigan in-state draw game, state law allows winners of prizes exceeding $10,000 to remain completely anonymous by submitting a simple written request upon claiming their winnings. All prizes over $5,000 are subject to standard tax withholdings (24% federal tax and 4.25% Michigan state tax). Winning tickets remain valid for redemption for one full year (365 days) from the drawing date.
